    Maggie’s Motivational Pic Thread v2.0 - - New Rules - See Post #1

    Why you wear a seat belt while driving a fork lift. There is a paper packaging company next door and as I was pulling out of the parking lot I heard a loud noise and looked over and saw the trailer bed collapsing and large paper rolls crashing out. Ran over to check on the fork lift driver...

    The push for DEI by the military is leaving are armed forces woefully unprepared for any conflict. These people will be cannon fodder if we ever get into a real conflict.

    Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

    This got me thinking about a conversation I had with a friend yesterday during a bike ride. Academy grad and retired as a two star several years ago. He recently was an observer of an exercise and was surprised at the degradation of our capability over a few short years. At the time he...

    Best ballistic calculator currently?

    Have several ballistics calculators including Kestrels. Still use the Kestrels with AB and provides good solutions but still my most trusted solver is FFS. IIRC FFS and Coldbore use the same ballistic engine. Several years ago we ran a head to head test between Coldbore and FFS at Gunsite...

    Belt Damage??

    Reloading belted cases is no different than non-belted cases in regards to setting headspace in the die. In both of my 300WM new cases will expand any where from .013 to .017 when fire formed. Set up the sizing die to set the shoulder back anywhere from .001 to .002. Sizing down to the belt...

    6mm Dasher vs 6creed

    Started with a 6 creed for a mid-range F Class rifle. Never could get the rifle to shoot where it needed to be and replaced it with a 6 Dasher. The other downside was the amount of throat erosion with a fairly low round count. The 6 Creed is basically an overbore cartridge with the Dasher...

    I have read every book I could find on the battle of Peleliu and still difficult to fathom the savagery of that battle. At that time, coverage of the battle was overshadowed by the news from Europe and the Philippines. The whole idea of taking the island was MacArthur's to supposedly protect...

    Maggie’s The Welding and Metalworking Thread

    Not a good idea to weld with strike anywhere stick matches in your breast pocket either. Don't ask me how I know.

    Wonder if there was a hot permit and a fire watch. Pretty much SOP on our jobs if any combustible materials are near by. Have set little fires while welding and you don't notice it when you are under the hood until you sense a different smell or feel heat.

    They should gp after these NGO's under federal racketeering charges for facilitating illegal entry into the US.

    All one has to do is study the decline of England's industrial base post WWII and see the same happening in the US. Our supposed elite schools turned out graduates more interested in financial engineering rather than actually creating and building tangible products. They offshored our...

    Good Tunes

    Saw Marshall Tucker at the Fillmore East in the early 70's. Man they were loud and my ears are still ringing. About that same time saw Jerry Jeff at Carnegie Hall accompanied by Ray Wylie on the piano.

    Built a firewood rack for a friend who is finishing a clients 14K sf custom home. Designed to fit approx. a cord of wood if stacked to the top rail. Sent picture this morning of it loaded up with pecan and no telling how much it weighs and a good thing there is a concrete pad under the screenings.
