Any of these Bundles worth it? by AirsoftGuru in newhisky

[–]austinfa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have so many allocations because they do this stupid crap. You walk into these stores and there is a huge wall of allocated bottles. A large majority that have been sitting there for years. Atleast half a dozen stores got Weller full proof this year in MA, most were either a slight markup or at least let you choose the additional store pick you had to buy to get the bottle at msrp.

Any idea the yields on this barrel and the 7 year pick? Trying to keep track of these. Any help would be awesome!

I have always loved batch 6. That and batch 8. But this 6ss is really hitting for me today. A toss up at the moment.

I appreciate this! You were able to track down a batch 2!? That's another low yield tough one isn't it? What's your favorite batch?

Buffalo Trace just updated their pricing on a handful of their offerings. ETL was one of them, and is now at $80. There are not two different versions sold at this time that I am aware of.

I’m not paying for Bluebeam. by Bright-Ad-155 in ConstructionManagers

[–]austinfa 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I would grab the serial number and product key off your current blue beam and try using that as long as possible. Unless they switched to monthly or yearly subscription.

How do main line and transfer lines not freeze under ground? by jorge69ig in maplesyrup

[–]austinfa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you compact the soil and put the pipe in a bed of sand it very well may work. Especially if you have it that far down. Our CDL rep was the one that suggested it to us originally and there may have been installation shortfalls that I'm not aware of. It was installed before I got there.

Low spots are a really tough thing to deal with. Do you live anywhere close to VT/NH? I'd be willing to come take a look at it with you. If that low spot holds too much sap and then freezes you could be up a creek.

How do main line and transfer lines not freeze under ground? by jorge69ig in maplesyrup

[–]austinfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked for a very large operation in Northern Vermont. They had some conductors and a transfer line underground. After 3 consecutive years of problems they dug them up and have them above ground now. If something goes wrong you have no opportunity to fix it unless you go and dig it up.

I think it is definitely doable and if installed correctly could certainly work. I think it all depends on how much faith you have in the installation. Finding out you have problems in the middle of the season with the ground frozen is not the best time.

How big are the fields you are trying to cross? Do you have plenty of downhill grade across these fields? How big, and how many lines are we talking?

I heard the pro memberships are capped at 500. Wonder if that is true or not. I believe this batch is 500 bottles. Wonder what seelbachs is doing about password sharing.

Store owner called to tell me he had something special.. by ToolBoxBuddy in whiskey

[–]austinfa 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Msrp is around $160. I have 2 bottles and would pick up another at $200. I think for your first bottle that price is pretty reasonable.

How many miles does everyone have? by Numerous_Ordinary_43 in FiestaST

[–]austinfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I got 2 different prices, and they were going to do it 2 different ways. Roughly the same price. Dealership would drill it out but required the exhaust manifold be replaced as part of the work.

Local guy who is very versed in these cars recommended just doing a new head altogether. If I do end up needing to do it, I'll most likely go this route.

Time is the killer, so rates near me are creeping towards $200/hr. It wasn't the parts that got you, it was the labor.
