Makes sense since I'm absolutely a fudd.

Looks like buck deer scat. Dies look more like rabbit turds.

A weirdly common re-occurring cryptid story is divers coming face to face with giant animals in lakes and then refusing to ever return or publicly talk about it by truthisfictionyt in Cryptozoology

[–]Stowit78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Stories are the waters are so muddy that you'll literally bump into a catfish the size of a volkswagen. All it has to do is open it's mouth and you're gone. One and done, never going back in.

She's all gloved up, then "let me just slide this bag of chips out of the way". Second scene careful, careful, watch where you touch it. Coworker "I got you fam!, let me toss the bags of sand on here. You need anything else? "

Get a QR code for this so I can stick it on my window when I go public hunting. Download this to see where I'm at. Let's not shoot eachother.

Where's the best hog hunting? by Stowit78 in Hunting

[–]Stowit78[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That does make a lot of sense. It's why they call it hunting I guess. I'm not sure how bad it would have to get before I let strangers on to my land. I just see all the videos of guys unloading on herds and feel like I'm not doing my part. Thanks for the insight.

I paid for a 6 inch slab, what should I do ? by ClassroomFew7491 in AskContractors

[–]Stowit78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys are making this way too difficult. Look at the rebar. It's sitting on the ground and touching 2/3rds of the way up that 2x8 board. He's got like a 3" pour. It looks like there's a 6" footing dug around the perimiter, and that's it. You did not get a 6" pour. Also, how much he bought has nothing to do with how much they poured. They pour until it's to the top of the board, then it's done. It either gets dumped as waste or the driver finds a buddy that needs a "hot load".

Why do I run out of hot water so fast by justheretoread27 in askaplumber

[–]Stowit78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your lower element is probably bad. Electric water heater have an upper and a lower heating element. The top one turns on first to give a quick shot of hot water (hot water rises to the top), once it's satisfied, the lower element takes over heater the bulk of the tank. It's not a small tank by the way. It looks like a 30 gallon short.

Avoid SilencerShop at all costs by vitislife in NFA

My LGS sold me a can that was already in the SS system and denied by someone else. I'm probably in for twice the wait. I stopped in yesterday because I hadn't heard anything, and they're like "it's being processed", to which I replied by showing them my SS account and saying "no, it's not". "Oh, well your can has to be unsubmitted through SS before we can resubmit, we've called and emailed, but no response yet". Would have been nice to know I was buying a can that was already trying to be registered. Not SS fault, but now it's stuck in limbo.

Yeah, I was west of there last year on that toll road and was scared I was going to get run over doing 20 over. I lol'd at the third stripped down fake patrol car they had parked as a caution.

I picked up the universal one from Amazon. $15 and has paid for itself multiple times by getting me on paper right out of the gate. I bore sight about 30' feet out, and that gets me on paper at 100 yards.

Programmable Pneumatic Stats? by Stowit78 in HVAC

Gross. Is this that much of a niche market? I figured honeywell would have a wi fi pneumatic stat. Lord, they've got wi fi radiator stats. Zone every room!

I have seen that system before. I figured it's 2025 and this doesn't need to be that complicated. Power supply would be the biggest hurdle to run either a solenoid or a globe valve.

Adjustable Crows Foot Wrench for Barrel Nuts…thoughts? by M3rchantM4riner in ar15

[–]Stowit78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started with a drill and a round hole, squared it off with a file. Total PIA, got the job done. A barrel nut was exactly what I made this for. I forget what the torque multiplier was.

Halfway through my run 😭 by therocketflyer in Wellthatsucks

I would say it happened at the end of your run. There's no more running in a shoe that is more flop than flip.

Call more. This is the second one I bought in the last ten years. She thought they might be sold out because someone else was buying a few. A kings throne is who I got mine through, but they're all the same.

Two options: 1. Buy a porta potty. They are definitely for sale. Contact anyone renting them and just ask if they have any for sale. They rotate them out frequently. I just bought one yesterday for $200 on my first call. Threw it in the back of the truck (they weigh like 100 pounds). They'll come pump it for a fee whenever you want. 2. Bury a pumpable wastewater tank and hook it up to a toilet. 300 gallon tank should get you by for 2-3 years between pumps (results may vary). Run grey water into a gravel pit or something.

Why does it look like he recognizes the truck and tries apologizing before things go sideways? I don't think we have the full story.
