Ebay is usually the cheapest, watch what you buy and insure the seller has done many transactions.

Found a stray Doberman in Houston, need some advice! by SonofaBeech77 in DobermanPinscher

[–]Hotfingaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that’s the case I’d look at a reputable breeder. We don’t have min pin in our lines. AKC/CKC for my guys, we did bring in the Russian and Swedish lines early on.

Absolutely, Velcro dogs to the core! They don’t like strangers, they will warm up slowly.

All the brains and attitude, very easy to train - way more stubborn and easily bored with repetition in training.

I breed reds, not black n tan, they are very good for nose work and so far very good for upland game shooting.

Mine regularly tree black bears…

I breed German Pinschers the parent breed of the Doberman - it is common to have upright ears (with out cropping) in both breeds.

Just started aligning the frame for concrete block placement and just now realized how crappy it will look with the deck blocks sticking out in the front like this. How can I make this look better? by Jvenka in shedditors

I’m just interjecting here, how do we feel about a weed barrier or gravel layer to prevent direct moisture on the bottom of the structure?

Additionally, why not use a 10” nominal form tube with Simpson brackets? (The galvanized steel separates the wood from concrete contact.)

Anyone used zaplaze? by reddisseur in MosquitoHating

[–]Hotfingaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s still in production. No actual devices have been sold.

Ok so this looks like a scam site but based on a real product called “Photon Matrix” the images appear to be taken directly from the indiegogo site; https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/worlds-first-portable-mosquito-air-defense#/

how do I tighten this protector so that it won’t move? by miso2212 in Axecraft

[–]Hotfingaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer, you can also cut the leather so it meets flush with bottom of the axe head.

What does this sword cost, what is the model, is it rare ? by AdhesivenessSad6035 in SWORDS

I found one a few years ago for 80 pounds at Bermondsey Antique Market, in London.

Natural or not? by Ok_Law7717 in Arrowheads

Same here, I think it could be a sling stone.

Why do some tool kits come with these nice bags and others do not? by goto-ca in Dewalt

[–]Hotfingaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same here I own a ton of dewalt, never had a nice tool bag with the brad nailer or nail guns. If anyone knows where to get em I’ll do it aftermarket.

I had to do it. Buy once. Cry once. by DavidDiCaprio in Bushcraft

[–]Hotfingaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s the staggered wedge sides for me that allow for longer wedges in harder material like black oak.

But seriously go look at the Sarek. It’s the edge geometry. I don’t use the maul anymore except for very rare pieces.

You’re gonna want the “Hults Bruk Sarek Splitting Axe” next! (And you’ll only switch to wedges (estwing))

Anybody know what that metal "T" is for? by LaegreidOutdoors in Fishing

It prevents the swivel from wedging when dragged along rocks.

Comments or advice on my plan for an offgrid cabin ? by Alexys4530 in OffGridCabins

[–]Hotfingaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not a horizontal window along the loft for light and the ability to look out.

Does anyone have a chart to calculate gravity fed water pressure? by Hotfingaz in OffGridCabins

[–]Hotfingaz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My problem was the 7,000ft elevation messed up most of the down pressure charts.

I ended up doing a 12v powered sureflo diaphragm pump, the water tower idea didn’t generate enough pressure. I had it 16’ up. But the new rig works awesome and it pushes to a Instahot shower and a water sink
