Pouring a 30"×40" concrete pad on top of concrete floor?

He's not placing cc of concrete....hes placing cubic feet, because AMERICA!!!!

Here's an approx 30" square pad pad poured for a steel column to support triple LVL's for a second floor.

I had to cut through the basement slab to excavate it. It's 16" deep, so about 22 -24 60# bags.

It's very similar to what you're doing.

Here's about 1100 bags poured under my brick - surfaced gun range

Here's a front porch supported by a footer and poured walls and deck, sitting next to brick veneered poured walkway.
Probably another 900-1000 bags.

You can rock a safe from ground to a 2" wood box. from that to a 4" wood box, etc till you get your desired height.
Did that before I installed a vault door.

People who dump kittens and puppies should be strung up….

I bet I see a half-dozen dumped animals per week. Irritates me to no end.

Fortunately some good people in the area have started working as fosters until we can get them fully vaccinated, and I have started working with some adoption agencies too.

It isn't just the "dumpers". There is a whole other group that refuse the $61 annual exam and vaccinations, or the $6-8/month heartworm prevention for their dogs. That takes too much away from their pack+ per day smoking habit while on government assistance... not to mention that they refuse to get anything spayed and neutered (which brings us back to dumping).

@sirhrmechanic I hope you have a good life with this one.

A couple years ago we were at the vet with our cat. This little guy (he's older in this pic) was a at the vets office, a month or two old at the time. They told us some asshole had left a litter of kittens in the trash can outside of the vets office. He was pretty sick but we adopted him and named him Eddie Manetti. He is 7 now and living like a king.

There is a special place in hell for people that abuse pets.

Why are you promoting Pam Bondi......she literally told she had the Epstein list on her desk and was gonna release it. Now she says there was never a list.....y'all have battered women's syndrome......maybe this time he won't hit me....maybe this time will be better. God damn, stop being a fucking simp.

Doc
I’m not defending her, but that’s not what she said, exactly. What she said was she had Trumps orders on her desk to release the information on JFK, MLK, and Epstein. Now what she ultimately did or didn’t do is a different discussion…

We may finally know who’s been to the island

Okay Unit boy. Sorry your pals were bombed recently. Sorry your PR jobs can't withstand reality.

I never said I had secret knowledge, which you dishonestly project onto me, you cretinous scab of semi-humanity chabadnik.

You "argue" and "insult" exactly like AleksanderSuave. What a pipsqueak imagining self The Dominator.



Little boy -- I am here to learn lrp shooting, which I have been doing for 5 years w/o comment, and 1 year with comments. Stop lying through your keyboard, you pissheaded dishonest chabadnik.

I am in this forum to talk about this topic, which should be obvious even to you. You are not my boss in any capacity. It's laughable to see you try to be. Like you intimidate me. Grow the fugg up and act your fuggin age, chabadnik.

I am pretty sure that at my advanced age, I get outside more than you and am in better physical shape than you will be at my age, and maybe better than you are now. You are not my superior, Mr Newton. You may shoot better -- and if you stop acting like a hero I may be able to learn something from you in that world. Here? Go sit at the kids' table where you can act like the thirteen year old you've been acting as in this thread.

As to the general joke nature of the Pit, of course, you moron. This topic however is not a joke, and you want to make it one. Why is that? Why is this laughable, or worthy of minimizing, or instilling apathy? What prompts you to work those angles? It's not funny at all. At all. In any universe full of humans that is. Semi-humans, however, may find it funny. But they are well outnumbered everywhere except a tiny patch of land not far from Iran.

Long range 22 LR

I have a 20" one. Shoots quite well for a medium weight barrel in a plastic stock. Trigger is good too. Cycling is fine.

It does have somewhat weak ejection. This hasnt caused malfunctions, but could if the bolt is weakly cycled.

It turns of accuracy, it has been perfectly acceptable. With good (but not lot-tested) ammo I have been able to average 1.25" 100 yard groups, with some down into the 0.9-1.0" range. This is with SK Rifle Match and Eley Team.

I am not sure that it is as easily modifiable as the other platforms, but mine is being left stock, and it is a very good stock rifle.
