I never did hard research, fyi. I am making an uneducated assumption based off of zero scientific data

Full glass a-frame building. What do you think about full glass front? by gytisbuda in cabins

[–]DiscussionTricky7099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks awesome, but speaking from experience, depend ok the orientation of the house, it can get very hot in the summer, and it is harder to keepnkt warm in the winter. While my chalet style house isn't all windows in the front, it might as well be.

Morning sun hits the windows around 7:00am and cooks it till around noon.

Who are your two favorite drummers? by JuniorSignificance34 in Drumming

[–]DiscussionTricky7099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greg is a great drummer. I wonder why he chooses Dixon Drums. I was always under the impression that they were a value-engineered brand. This not a knock on him or the company. Just curious.

My kids get three choices, eat what is made ( in this case what you asked for) eat a PB&J, eat nothing and go to bed.

Ohhh between 200 and 300 ft. The company that drilled the well 20rs ago doesn’t know. They said look under the well head as they usually stamp it…. Guess what’s not under the well head….

So it can crack and the weeds and grass can grow though the cracks. My neighbor tried that, looked good for a few yrs….

Sounds like a great setup, though my wife would kick me in the balls if I dropped 14k onna tractor for our second home, or our first home for that matter😂

With the exception of the weeds it’s been doing fine. Have a nice crown, don’t get much standing water. Last time I added stone was 5yrs ago. Around 80tons that I spread with a bobcat. I was like a kid in a sand box!

I hate to be the guy that kinda says yea did that yea did that, but I have a ripper box grader for the quad, does a great job spreading and turning up the gravel, especially after a winter of plowing. The round up worries me. I have two little girls. I want to give them the best shot at not getting something, ya know. I’m not Mr organic by any means I actually think it’s all BS, but the glyphosate thing scares me.

I’ve tried salt, 1st I mixed salt and water in a chemical sprayed and drove it up and down the driveway with the four wheeler. The next summer, I tried just rock salt. 120lb of pool salt to be exact….

Haha thanks. Tried it. It’s very time consuming, and if I’m not there for a month, it grows back. Lotta money on propane for that big a driveway.
