    Do you file depth gauges on safety chain?

    My daughter and brother have Ego mowers. Both would never go back to gas. My brother actually has 2 (one for each property). Over an acre mowed each; I think he has 2 batteries and does each without recharging. They do not appear to be very good mulchers. Brother also has Ego snow blower...

    The transition

    Anything that calls a future election over 2 years away is speculation. Rubio was actually my choice in 2016. I'd like to see him with Haley (my 2024 choice) in 2028.

    With Rubio at the helm in 2028 the correction will help KAGF.

    Do you file depth gauges on safety chain?

    I'm very simple compared to you. Just like a kitchen knife that gets a pass over a steel every use and maybe once a year gets on a sharpener, unless you hit the dirt with the chain a quick pass with a file should keep the chain cutting efficiently. I don't cut like I used to, but when we were...

    If they made them out of plastic they could be washed and recycled. Full disclosure: if waste needs to be washed/rinsed it goes in the trash here.

    I would guess Amazon wouldn't want the liability of reusing packaging from unknown background.

    The transition

    If everything packaged in plastic was packaged in treated cardboard [or pick any other material] instead would it be better to have 90% of your waste as that material instead? Or are you saying we shouldn't be eating stuff that is [or needs to be] packaged?

    The transition

    That is not the reason I buy either. Back then, my tenants were not on assistance either; thus, did what they needed to do to survive. Great people. I didn't know what a Tomra machine is and after googling it it must be less expensive than using people. Although we've lived in a non-deposit...

    The transition

    Deposits are a value to the economy. We had tenants (40 years ago) that reliably got $ to pay rent by picking up cans in the park on weekends. We used to pay for gas to visit my brother in MI by returning IA cans when we got there (.05 vs .10); gas was cheaper then.

    remagnetize a generator?

    We have a pretty good idea how long an outage will be in under an hour. I'll pull the generator out at 2+ hours

    remagnetize a generator?

    I bought a generator for an outage used it for 2 days then put it in the garage. I needed it again 6 or 7 years later. Started 1st pull after throwing some fresh gas on the old. I now try to remember to start it once a year and run it until it's warmed up; same gas (treated with Sea Foam) in...

    The transition

    Welcome to the reality many know already. Even if we "do something" (unless it is devestating to the economy) it will still be true. Suggest we start by not allowing data centers to be connected to utilities used by others.

    "Lock" a Bosch Nyon 2 head unit to the bike

    Why not pop it off and put it in our pocket for security. We used to do that with our trip computers in the olden day.

    If you can also take advantage of the heat they produce, pretty efficient!
