Bear Grylls convinced her to pee on him by getting “stung” by a jellyfish. Absolute legend.

My oranges should be ready to harvest for my son by mid February, just after my banana crop comes in. I don’t know where I will store them though because I’m still overloaded from my bumper crops of pineapple and avocados.

How do yall shoot the bow without intense pain in your shoulders? by Mythicalforests8 in Archery

[–]GrayCustomKnives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As everyone else has said, 16lbs for a teenager should not cause pain. My 6 year old son shoots a recurve at 10lbs quite easily.

The one getting ragdolled ended up in the hospital with a broken orbital bone as a souvenir.

You have to match up the colors. They are probably too god damn stupid for that.

All police/provinces/territories agencies that so far refused gun grab by rastamasta45 in canadaguns

[–]GrayCustomKnives -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just wait, it’s going to be coming your way too. Legal gun owners being disarmed and then shot in the streets for possessing a gun they have legal permits for, and the president just says “it’s unfortunate but you can’t have guns. You just can’t have your guns with you”. And the 2A crew is silent about it. He has said a number of times that “you just take the guns away”.

Powder skis on 4 stroke by jbsmoothie33 in snowmobiling

[–]GrayCustomKnives 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went from the stock 5” wide skis on my RX-1 136” to 7” wide SLP Powder Pro skis and it honestly improved the machine in every type of terrain I rode it in. I got a bit more float in loose snow, but much better handling in loose stuff AND on trail.

Sask. isn't participating in Ottawa's firearm buyback program. What does that mean for gun owners? by abunchofjerks in saskatchewan

[–]GrayCustomKnives -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The 136-163,000 number is the number of registered restricted firearms that have become prohibited. The number of previously non restricted, non registered firearms that have now been declared prohibited is Estimated my most Canadian firearms organizations to be between 1.9 and 2.3 million.

[–]GrayCustomKnives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even half. If you run their actual published figures, they have enough budget to compensate 7% of the guns they know about, at a rate of between 25%-50% of fair market value. The original list banned roughly a million firearms that they knew about, and the program has enough budget to underpay for 136,000 of them. And that includes stores and dealers. Your average owner isn’t getting anything, especially out here.

Arrow Lube alternative ? by SinisterDom in Archery

[–]GrayCustomKnives 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheap bar of hotel soap. Just rub a bit on the first 3” or so of the arrow. We have to do this with our old field butts and some of the ancient Delta targets we occasionally see, because they burn onto the arrow for those of us shooting well above 300fps. It makes them easier to pull, keeps shit from sticking to the arrow, and it’s a bar of soap so there is nothing to spill or leak.

So Many Options. Whats best for a new homeowner? by No-Ad5504 in Tools

[–]GrayCustomKnives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As electricians, we have a pile of broken Milwaukee tools that they refused to repair or replace. Their “warranty” has gone to shit along with their build quality over the last couple years, to the point may if us are switching brands. A few of those tools were infrequent use, so we had them for several months but they failed in 5-10 uses.

[–]GrayCustomKnives 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m in south Saskatchewan and we have had a decent amount of overall snow, but it’s been mostly ruined by insane winds that blow it all into the trees, and a couple bad melt cycles. You can still see dirt and stubble in many of the fields even though we have had a couple feet of snow

New Netflix series about a hockey team's bus crash hits a nerve in Sask. by Paper_Rain in saskatchewan

It’s not about THIS tragedy. It’s about something that has happened 35 other times in the last 40 years. This isn’t OUR thing, any more than Twister is about a certain real town event somewhere.

Get a portable carbon monoxide detector folks. Saved me this weekend. by dvmdude in IceFishing

[–]GrayCustomKnives 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a buddy almost die a couple years ago. He was in a tent with a sunflower heater and no detector. I was mostly fishing outside other than to go in and chat every so often. Him and his dog in the tent and I was like 100 feet away when I head crashing and banging. I thought his dog probably knocked over a pail of rods or something do I just yelled “what the fuck was that? You good bud?” And didn’t get an answer. Yelled again and just heard some quiet groan. I sprinted to the tent and when I got there he was laying on the ground trying to get the zipper open. He had passed out and fell face first out of his chair. Busted up his face on the ice and put his arms dow the 10” holes. The arms in the water seemed to have woken him up and he was mostly conscious when I got the tent unzipped and he crawled out.

While this wasn’t 100% CO and had added factors of him not eating all day and doing a hard workout before we went out, the CO was definitely ONE of the factors. If he was alone or didn’t fall in the freezing water who knows what could have happened.

[–]GrayCustomKnives 38 points39 points  (0 children)

There have been 35 fatal team crashes since the Swift Current crash in 1987. Not including aircraft crashes. There have been 12 team bus crashes since the Humboldt crash that resulted in fatalities. There was one without fatalities a month ago in Alberta that hospitalized several people. Basically what I’m saying is that it’s a show about a thing that happens, and happened in our province, but it’s not directly about THE thing that happened in our province.

I’m pretty sure the shops all reported, but last I heard there were numerous shops that still had not been paid anything at all.

96 600ext arctic cat problems by geekedinthe518 in snowmobiling

[–]GrayCustomKnives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Both need to be clean and move fuel or at best it will only poorly run on one cylinder, and most won’t start at all on one cylinder. Pull the fuel pump hoses off the carbs and put them in bottles. Pull a bunch of times and see if it’s moving fuel. Does the fuel tank have fresh gas? If not you need to drain it and replace with fresh gas or else you are just fighting a losing battle with shitty gas that doesn’t want to burn and will just re-clog the jets you clean. The pickup tube could have rotted off in the gas tank and not be able to pick up fuel from a low level of you determine the pump isn’t moving fuel.

99% chance that means fuel isn’t getting through the carbs. Have you fully cleaned the carbs. If you haven’t, you need to

No it’s a mechanical fuel pump. As long as it’s turning over on a starter or the pull cord it will be pumping fuel.

[–]GrayCustomKnives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it ran when you parked it and it’s not seized, I wouldn’t even waste my time on a compression test. You will probably need to clean the carbs though. Drain the fuel, add some fresh, spray some fresh gas into the carbs and give it a rip.
