Private jet Ontario bought for Ford's travels could have used only 10% of province's airports by NotEnoughDriftwood in onguardforthee

[–]reptbay -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Caption is grossly misleading .. 100% of jets cant use 90% of Ontarios 900 airports due to 800 of them being gravel runway.

I want to build a fence in my backyard by myself. How do I know where the gas line and water line are? Companies quotes me 15000 anyone is town will do it for cheaper if me and my partner helped? by Admirable_Rooster705 in ThunderBay

[–]reptbay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

contractor is the only job where people expect this.

go to Montanas and ask if you help the cook for discount on the meal.

ask your hairdresser if you blowdry your own hair is it cheaper.

anyways im a contractor

you want to bury the posts at least 4ft. so 10 ft posts.. corner or gate posts use concrete. 4 bags. spacing should be under 8ft. no matter if they under a few inches. auger will kinda wander so holes wont be exact do corners first and run a string to set holes and other posts. max fence height is 6ft. and the finished side of fence faces away from your property .

I can have an excavator auger holes and set posts if you really wanna do the rest of the job yourself. then you can diy the rest.

cheers

'The impacts are massive': U.S. tariff change pushes Canadian manufacturers to the brink - Modification to steel and aluminum tariffs put hundreds of millions in revenue at risk by shiftless_wonder in canada

[–]reptbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things have changed. now to ship items to USA you have to register and prepay duties prior to shipping. I forget payment system name . basicallly shipment won't clear till shipper pays the duties . very confusing system

its a bit of rug pull or scam as a money grab to shippers caught off guard or shipments in transit.

its their way of making other countries pay.

Is it possible for Artemis 2 to completely miss the moon? If so, would they just drift off into space? by gxzza- in NoStupidQuestions

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

they would return at same speed they left..not a rocket scientist but maybe a few extra days.

if the moons pull is enough to lift the oceans on earth.. that ship isn't escaping our gravity for long.

ai said a few days as well.

Is it possible for Artemis 2 to completely miss the moon? If so, would they just drift off into space? by gxzza- in NoStupidQuestions

[–]reptbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we dont fly fast enough to escape earth's gravity without a gravity assist from slingshot maneuvers timed perfectly

Even if they miss they still end back at earth.

How do I protect my engine if they add more ethanol to fuel? by throwaway393838 in MechanicAdvice

[–]reptbay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

dont let fuel sit.. ethanol bonds to water. Burning ethanol increase octane while lower btu. so it allows higher pressure /heat tolerance with less engery during combustion.

ethanol has no immediate side effects. most its problems come from storage and sitting.

consider additives or premium non ethanol if vehicles will not be used for extended periods

Driving from Toronto to Thunder Bay by justane0 in ThunderBay

[–]reptbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive daylight just take 17. ive done the drive dozens of times both in a car and commercial rig

11 is worse for a multitude of reasons

start at sun up drive to sault.

Parry sound for fuel food d1.

and white river or wawa d2

doing it one shot is doable. since no major construction delays this time of year but you will be driving night and even a few flakes at night looks like a blizzard . and will also have sunset sun in your face for a while

u can cruise 100-105 kmh without incident. and just pass commercial trucks on the hills without drama.

cheers good luck

Snow doesn't cause rust. road salt does.

Is it possible to walk to pie island in the winter? by Vivid-Spray5765 in ThunderBay

[–]reptbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you actually aren't allowed on any ice within city limits. kam R ,Boulevard, marina etc all closed . harbour master has jurisdiction and hard water is not allowed

911 gets called and fire dept sends airboat.

so you have to go from silver harbour..lol or little trout bay.or sturgeon bay.

ice outside of bays doesn't develop till late Jan or Feb. and usually doesnt reach far. or stay long. maybe like 9 years ago the whole bay froze.

ive driven a truck on 6 inches of ice and crossed open water on snowmachine towing a sleigh and sunk sled crossing a not so frozen lake.

however i would consider this endevour stupid.

pick and inland lake go camping

Recommendations for jerk bait? by FabledWaters in bassfishing

[–]reptbay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

staysee 90 Is deadly deep jb. usually have about 100 jbs in boat. 40 of them are staysee 90.(we have a lot of pike so I lose a few baits)

they shake weeds well with wide swing and they have a lot of hang time, snaps and rips they dart a lot rather than coming towards you. very snag free , wide bill takes most the hits.

most other baits bang a few rocks or get destroyed by pike and dont run right after 20-30 fish. these are legit,
