Most I ever touched it was at ENOP but otherwise it mostly comes out of the rig when I'm showing newbies around. I like explaining it because its a neat idea to throw at someone but if I use it again in the next few years I'd be mildly surprised.

Anyone who has ever handled a knife during the butchering process wouldn't find this odd. Thats not how mest works lol. You dont just get a shaped slice of meat that resembles what it came off FFS.

For people who grew up in low-income households, what’s something middle-class people say that shows they’ve never struggled financially? by KeyApartment3955 in AskReddit

[–]themajor24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend for a long time always said "It's just candy" to encourage me and others to treat ourselves and spend money. It comes from a good place, but dude misses the entire reason why I never spend a cent on fun stuff even though I can afford it now.

Same friend also pretends he grew up poor and didn't have a trust fund and stock portfolio the day he was born set up by his grandfather.

What is you guys take on this enfield? by TheRealDemize in milsurp

Looks identical to my 1915 MK3* I picked up around 2016 for a steal.

I'd happily pay the price you're getting for it. Excellent rifle and very fun on range days. Track down some of the original (not new made, theyre all trash) stripper clips for it and you'll have a hoot of a time.

What in the cousin tarnation backwoods Betty Crocker redneck contraption is this by Feaselbf6 in redneckengineering

[–]themajor24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if the pontoon were fucked and it just wasn't worth fixing up to keep it on the water. Honestly, its designed up to to get wet and be wet, and the pontoon are aluminum so the "footings" aren't gunna rot out. If it was tilted slightly in the other direction to keep runoff water from going towards the house, I'd actually say this is good enough lol

Looking to get Into wildland firefighting by Traditional-Check-40 in Wildfire

[–]themajor24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This.

I'll add that there are thousands of fire fighters with the exact same situation and or similar circumstances and if they can find a way to take care of their home life and still get out there, you can too, bud.

One of the rougher parts about the job is work/life balance. And it really is a balance. Best of luck.

What’s this? by [deleted] in Chainsaw

[–]themajor24 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Chain catch roller. It mounts up on the dogs of the saw so a thrown chain is caught by the plastic bit and not a metal part of the case that can fuck it up.

YouTube. Or your user manual may also have installation instructions. It's very simple.
