    Anchorage?

    I have lived there, I understand. I understand traffic is FAR FAR worse than when I lived there. Point being, if there were no traffic you could be out in the woods in less than an hour playing. Definitely true in FB, 15-20 minutes and you can be out shooting on remote land. I'm looking at...

    Chainsaw brand??

    Regardless of the saw, run it hard the first year on petrol oil, and then switch it over to Redline synthetic or AMSOIL. I was actually out of oil and had a small amount of work to do, straight gas, ran like a champ, then mixed upa new batch when my AMSOIL dealer got me oil. I've seen bathtub...

    Combined two hobbies yesterday.....

    That's mostly short range stuff, not bad for AP work as long as you don't have someone walk up with a cell phone, blue tooth, wifi........:) That holds true with mine as I transmit a video signal on 2.4ghz but I have it programmed with failsafe to fly back and land if something happens to the...

    Combined two hobbies yesterday.....

    I fly with video goggles, the aircraft is transmitting a 2.4ghz Video signal. I use HAM 433mhz for control, has a pretty unlimited range, up to about 60 miles. 12 guage, 50 cal, none of that matters unless you have full auto, they just go through the foam unless you hit a wire, and that's *IF*...

    Chainsaw brand??

    If money is not an object a Stihl or Husq is the way. But I bought a Craftsman about 4 or 5 years ago and I use it once a year, not the heaviest duty but it hasn't given me any issues and just WORKS. I can change blades out in a matter of minutes, all caps are easy to open. 18" blade, it just...

    Anchorage?

    Anchorage is a great place to work because within 1 hour you can be in no mans land, forget about the city, think NORTH. I'm planning a move back to Fairbanks in the next year or two after daughter graduates high school, going back to be Arctic Light :D Lot of mountain areas up there, hunting...

    Shipping a POV. Who have you used?

    I had an outfit take my VW Scirocco from this coast to PA, $1200, I tipped the driver to wash it when it got to the other side. There are a few outfits that will do by rail, much cheaper and less prone to weather/highway dirt....

    Banana slug.. Yum yum

    They get huge here. I'd eat tree bark before I ate one, alt hough I've heard if you cook it then it's edible. I've also heard th ey have parasites beyond belief. But if you are in an area where there are slugs then it means it's the warm season, and there is other food. They hide all winter...

    Sons of Guns Will Hayden arrested on molestation charges

    I'm tending to believe Will on this one. I've had to deal with one psychopathic woman that has threatened any made up charge after I got custody of my daughter. When I walk into court and custody is changed in less than 5 minutes my case was sound. All the same, it takes one accusation to get a...

    Jesse is at it again

    If want to get personal and be a computer commando that's one thing. Most commando's on the internet won't respect someone's opinion even if they disagree with it. I respect your opinion, don't even disagree with it. The same could be said, by me, about a guy that writes a book exploiting...

    Jesse is at it again

    That would be your opinion, the same could be made for any one that writes books about killing people.

    Jesse is at it again

    Were you one of those that believed the wrestling was real? They actually had to put a disclaimer on it in the 1990's because of people believing it. See my post above, he's an ENTERTAINER, and if your basis of a liar is such then all of Hollywood is lying for putting out fictitious movies...

    Jesse is at it again

    Look at the source of that news article "National Review?" LOL Jesse is an entertainer, first and foremost. He was UDT, which at the time was same as SEALs. He got caught in his own life about Vietnam and came clean, albeit coaxed but he did. I don't know Kyle, nor his exploits or...

    Underwater recovery device

    I'm not pimpin' anything here, just that while I fly multi-rotor drones that cost about $2000 a piece, sometimes I go over water....and sometimes technology fails! So I had these things called waterbuoys but after testing them, they can't inflate under pressure of 50' of water... So I needed...
