I had one of these feeders , the Squirrels (it looked like ) played on it till the motor wore out . bought a new motor and they burned that out , gave up . Stan in
KY.

EDIT: yes it is motor driven rechargeable
Ezana4CE
@beerthief There's a motor that makes it do that? I thought it was spinning because of the momentum and weight distibtuion of the squirrel on the feeder.

Yesterday evening was perfect for summer in central MN. How are the skeeters in your neck of the woods? Practically every day I walk around my property, I'm picking off wood ticks.

Tics are off the chart in Denmark this year, apparently it have been a ideal winter / spring for those.
Also it would seem we will soon have to welcome another moskito from the south, it also possibly carry some exotic decease.

Nature in general also not doing so well, a study released recently show that in 10 different kinds of nature, there are progress in 0 of them, so to avoid the tics, dont go out in the miserable remains of Danish nature.
Years of plinking and competition, then stopped 20 years ago. Spent the last 12 years working for an engineering house building and testing prototypes for new products that connect to iPhones and iPads.
Just purchased my RAW HM1000x about a month ago, along with a Hawke Sidewinder 4-16x50. Arken Zulu with range finder is on the way.

Glad to be here.
The longest day of the year is coming up soon and apologizing to my dry friends up front, I'm going to pull out a reclining lawn chair, grab an ice cold beer and listen to the wind in the trees until the light is all gone and it's pitch black.

I've been on call for a week, I'm in pain, my honey-do list still takes up my job board and I need to just sit a while and "be".
Peashooter
I would like to do the same, but the problem is, in Denmark summer seem to no longer exist, these days daytime temperatures can barely claw their way past 10 deg C / 50 deg F
So as you can understand i am sure, not much fun being outside and at least inactive, TBH i think the moment the new shot shed are done we might have to start up the furnace / oven in it to keep warm.

There might be global warming, but its not us that " pump up the volume " last summer was also BS
Im working on a few dozen clamps for an acoustic build.

I’m very familiar with cam clamps…I built wooden sailing yachts. Most of mine were much larger and heavier….same concept though. I still like to see neat tools, simply constructed, to accomplish a specific task. John

Spool clamps only grip the edge, great for top plates.

I built similar clamps from aluminum for welding titanium airflow tubing for aircraft.

Another good year at Raton for the Kid's shooting competition. Littlest one did not make it to the award stage this year, but she did have a breakthrough on the practice range and managed to level-up on three critical skills. She was shooting a new shotgun, a new (to her) Ruger. She set a personal best in Rifle and Muzzleloader and was just one hit each out of the awards. She is already chomping at the bit to go again next year. I was in my favorite place with my favorite group of people, and I reaped the benefits of both being away from work and being able to witness the 37 shooters on our team manifest the skills and knowledge that we coaches have been working toward.

Life is good.

I removed the auto safety some time back and placed it in the circular file. Everything works so much better now. Also keeping my ear to the ground for 5,500psi air tanks at a reasonable price.

I bought mine on ebay. Scott 5.5.....Watch there around....😁

That thing is impressive!!!!!😯😯
You can buy fancy powered sharpening tools and jigs. I usually sharpen by hand, and leather strop after. Either way if it shaves, it's sharp...1000002162.jpg1000002161.jpg

Sharp is sharp…no matter how you get there….my wife always knows when I sharpen anything from the hairless patches on my forearm….
Looks like I need to look into being robbed by my local woodcraft store. After a bunch of research the plane is a type 4 produced from 53-65, and the knob and tote are made from Goncalo wood(tigerwood). Gonna see if they have a piece i can make both out of so the have nice matching color and grain. The front knob is not in bad shape but upon removal has some cracks in the base.1000002153.jpg

Looks stout…it’s really nice having your rifle rigid while you’re trying to clean or adjust it. Nicely Done!
I also buy and restore old handplanes. Found this Miller's Falls #9 at a tag sale for $6 today. Already started tearing into it. The worst part is the rear handle (tote) that broke at some point and was repaired in ways that are functional only.1000002150.jpg
Mr.H
$6 is a bargin. Can't wait to see the restoration.
I'm just curious… who was the first person to look at a split open oyster and think "what a nice piece of snot! I'll bet that tastes delicious!"?

I am pretty sure that was Primitive Pete :ROFLMAO: , however I am ranked in there somewhere 😋.

Not sure but I'd bet there was a Mom yelling
"Put that down! Oh My God!!! Did you just eat that?"

Interestingly enough.... it feels the same way sliding down your throat, but they are delicious.
Was anyone else in the line of totality today? Pretty neat experience.

I was right in the path of totality and we had cloudless skies up here in Maine last week. Pretty cool experience. People are still talking about it.
