    New prefix for Bear Pit threads

    If memory serves me there used to be a DIY prefix in the past. Would it be asking too much to have that back. We have multiple DIY type threads currently and it would make finding them easier. Thanks..

    Maggie’s What's Your View II

    Spent a couple days last week over at a buddies place putting this mobile shooting bench together. All of the metal, wheels, axels and wagon tongue came out of various scrap piles. The marine grade plywood was donated. The seats, jacks and aluminum box were the only things purchased. Seats are...

    Night Vision Nightforce 2.5-10x32 compact…..

    What do I need to use/have to untilize the night vision reticles. It has 2 settings on the illumination adjustment dial. I have a chance to do some after dark coyote hunting but have no idea how or if I can use this scope. I have no experience with anything night vision related so be gentle………😏

    Maggie’s THE "NOM NOM NOM" THREAD

    I’ve had this knife for over 20yrs, came with the Cabelas grinder. Couldn’t guess how many times it’s been sharpened. It still takes a good edge, problem is it’s gotten short. There isn’t any more room to tighten the lock ring to keep the blade tight on the plate. I use a very flat piece of...

    Maggie’s THE "NOM NOM NOM" THREAD

    Not necessarily a matter of not being happy with what I have, just curious if the swept blade has any advantages. They’re not expensive so perhaps one of each will find their way here…..

    Maggie’s THE "NOM NOM NOM" THREAD

    Looking to replace the blade in my meat grinder and am wanting to know if there is any real world performance difference between the cross style blade and the swept edge type. This is what I currently have… …….or is this any better?

    Just finished up a restoration on a 1974 vintage Craftsman 12” bandsaw. This was bought new by my grandfather. My dad had it for years before the bearings finally gave up the ghost. I was able to locate all the correct bearings and a couple other small parts. A new cart was fabricated. I added...

    Maggie’s The Woodchuck and Firewood Hoarders Thread

    Sigh…… Not gonna be any cutting around here. This year has been an absolute shit storm. Both of my 25+ year friends/farm owners passed away. Couldn’t hazard a guess how many hours I worked both farms, loving every minute of it. Feeling gutted… One farm sold immediately the other taken over by...

    Cerakote durability…..

    I’m looking to rehab a table saw that has a painted/coated finish on the top. Would Cerakote wear well in this application and if not what would be a better option? Powder coating is available locally too but I’m concerned with the thickness…

    Little armored one took up residence in my back yard.

    Had a skunk in the live trap earlier this year. A couple nervous moments (for me 🙄), skunk was seemingly cool with it. Got the trap open and it just wandered off. Having been here 14 years I’ve never seen or smelled one. It was quite the surprise… My mom and dad had one as a pet many years ago...

    Freud, Diablo (made by Freud) and CMT are what I use the most. I’m sure there are other great blades out there. The 60 tooth Diablo Fine Finish blade makes a very smooth cut in oak or maple. I don’t use it for general cutting though, I’ll grab a standard ripping blade for rougher work.

    I made up a tool to verify square. Too cheap to buy one as I already had the Starrett dial.

    Verify the slot is square to the blade and the blade is square to the fence. Take some time and make it as accurate as you can.

    I have one of the wet wheel Deltas here, haven’t used it in years. Switched to flat diamond plates for sharpening my chisels. How well do the wheels hold up on that grinder? A diamond wheel on the Delta would be the cats azz.
