    Now I just need to find someone that makes the kydex for this size. Armatus does but the holes are too close together for a non armatus sheath. 20190611_151724.jpg 20190611_151741.jpg

    Slowly getting some organization done in the garage.
    Time will tell if the layout is convenient and makes sense.


    It’s like when you move into a new house and have to figure out where to put the silverware.

    You guys know I'm building a "mobile kitchen", I talk about it all the time. ;). So sometimes you need a saucepan ( a stewboiler my mama called em) might want some noodles, or boiled eggs, or cook down some fruit for a cobbler. Right? I wanted solid metal handles ( not tubular) and all metal lids ( not glass) as these are destined for a huge JobSite all weather tool box that will most likely be on a trailer being hauled down rutted muddy logging roads. Cuisinart brand, not cheap, not lightweight either. But good quality if you're in need of pots.

    That is some good looking cookware !! I have a couple of things they made here at home and have always been impressed with the quality. Looks like you could use that big saucepan to beat something to death before you cooked it up....I like double duty items !!

    You ain't kidding. It's gotta be a couple of pounds, its tri-clad, stainless inside and out sandwiching an aluminum core. The wall thickness is 4mm on my caliper. You could sure as heck knock a noesy critter stupid with it I bet.

    Just got a 2000 GMC Sierra, needed my more reliable vehicle to use for school and work and my old doge Dakota just wasnt cutting it anymore. It's now been relegated to farm use at the hunting cabin

    So we got a new power washer delivered today. Of course the gun is broken in 2 or 3 places. We called amazon and complained.. they told us they’re sending us a brand new one and to do whatever we want with the original.

    They’re sending us a new power washer, NOT A NEW GUN :cool::cool::cool:

    Just scored an atomic bargain on a replacement drivers seat for the new truck. Best price I found on either I wanted was @$2.5K Aussie. Started looking at a different seat from a small dealer inter-state and had him send me some pics and measurements. Size wise it was a better fit than the more expensive ones I was looking at. He has direct imported a 40 foot shipping container of them and only had a single return, only six left and he said for a smaller business seats are to much work (needing to have an engineering works locally that can reliably supply base adaptors for all the various vehicles on the market). Anyway we went back and forth and he ended up offering me a deal too good to pass up....waaaaay too good to pass up. I added a pair of canvas seat covers (one custom made for the specific seat I got and one for the ORM front passenger seat in my truck) and they will be with the courier to me on Monday !!
