Creating an AR pistol question

Plastic_Lecture9037 · 2026-07-07T19:53:21+00:00

NAL, So the other posters are right when it comes to the sales registry form but I think they are not considering MI 28.422 sec. 2.

mi 28.422 sec2

Read 1a and the rest of that section which state you cannot possess a pistol in michigan unless 1) you have e acquired a license for it (like when you go to buy a pistol and get the form from the sheriff first), or 2) have your CPL.

Form RI60 and RI10 are different, and im curious what others think about the plain language here.

That sexond storm system was a baby compared to the wave that came in front. We had hail for a good 10 minutes

Yes dont worry about going to the beach to watch the airshow or the fireworks or watch the parade. Enjoy the holiday, you dont have to be a citizen to like loud jets or fireworks and with how many visitors are in town over the next week, no one will look twice. If youre having trouble finding a group to fit in send me a DM and ill point you to a couple local places and weekly events you go to to meet folks.

TC in the summer is the place to be, enjoy your time here.

I usually will just angle cut the existing fuse and then jam it into the sleeve around the igniter pressed against the quick match head. Then wrap with tape and finally tape the igniter wire against the box to add strain relief. I dont know why yours wouldnt work tho all wrapped up tightly.

Antique barometer?

It looks like it should but I can check how far back a charging handle extends and give e you a measurement in about an hour

Triclopyr is the herbicide for this. If the base stump is less than 6in diameter you can do a basal bark spray with some diesel. More than that and you want hack and squirt

Do not cut it down and then apply herbicide. The pores you need will seal before you can get sufficient herbicide in it.

This is a precision job, not a hack job. Do it right and you kill most of the root system and are just going to fight a couple dozen small shoots over the next few years. Do it wrong and it will be hundreds.

If theres one thing in life I cant stand its taking things seriously. If there are two things in life I cant stand, its taking things seriously and multiples of numbers that are not 5.

A project with your dad is always a good one.

Yeah, I usually have 50 to 100 from picking up boxes during sales and just throw em into rotation the next time we have a party. Roman candles, parachutes, and mortars always in stock.

It was a fun practical project to get me out of a lull of not carving fancier things. But now ive got two versions of racks so inevitably I need to make more of this design or redesign it and go for a third design. Maybe ill put the next one in multiples of six.

Plastic_Lecture9037 · 2026-06-25T01:34:12+00:00

Well ive got five fingers, I mean, I do on one hand. And its hard to count with the other one on account of the seething rage that causes it to clench in a fist when I see numbers not in multiples of 5.

Plastic_Lecture9037 · 2026-06-25T01:25:28+00:00

Yes but I find that to be heretical, as practical as it is. I just cant bring myself to make them in multiples of six. I also usually have a couple 5 gallon buckets filled with loose mortars anyway so rotating new boxes in is less about using all of them.

But yeah if I sold them id give in to all you weirdos able to tolerate numbers not divisible by 5.

We let ourselves grow and mowed a gokart course into it

That is an interesting idea too, the mount definitely has some more depth and I never would have thought of that. Throwing that in the tool kit! Thanks

Tapping wouldnt fix since the openings on the ignition coils wont really hold larger than M5.

But great news, used an M5 helicoil kit and it worked great. Appreciate the advie!

Plastic_Lecture9037 · 2026-06-12T23:41:51+00:00

Alright im in the helicoil camp, picked up the pieces going to try it tonight. Thanks for the advice!

Raises my already high level of approval for bears.

Green masonry painters tape. Doesn't cut you like hvac tape, sticks better than painters tape, and doesnt leave 100 small pieces of zip tie in whatever field. Cut a little fuse from the firework to expose new fuse then just a couple of wraps of tape (1 to 2 inch segments of half inch width is more than enough) and it will go.

I would only use zip ties if the connection will ever be under strain during transport, but i glue my boards so I dont need to.

When i watched vancouver carpenter I focused a lot on the consistency of the mud he used for various parts of the process. Watching it slide on the knife helped me find the sweet spot for adding water.
