If I'm doing brisket for a party or something I always shoot for it to be done at least 3 hours before I want to serve it. You can hold it for a long damn time in a cooler but there's not much you can do to speed it up if it's taking too long. I once had one that I severely misjudged where it...

They will also turn off their only source of water. I can just imagine a whole herd dying because one of them was itchy.

Yeah I don't know how you get it down to $50k. I just got a '26 cab and chassis and the only upgrades were the 7.3l v8 and a crew cab and it came to $61k. Then spent another $2k on a grill guard and $22k on a hydraulic bale bed. I wouldn't have thought $50k was possible but I have no doubt...

5 aces on the board. I guess everybody wins and we have to take a look at the deck.

I approve of this. I definitely wouldn't mind having an excuse to rent a crane. So far I've only been able to justify a few excavators and once a big tele-handler. I felt like a god driving that thing around and thinking "If I wanted to set a 4-wheeler on the roof of the barn right now I...

To be honest, I share your dad's fantasies. When I see one of those big ass griddles I imagine myself at a fair or a music festival or some other outdoor event cooking 20 pancakes at once for a big crowd of people. I think that would be kind of fun but I have no prospects for doing that so a...

Or just plug in a $40 Walmart electric griddle on the deck.

Very cool. I love all the router jigs.

Not saying she's not a fake wife, but I think we're looking pretty hard for drama in this one. It looked to me like she just put her hand on his back as she went by so he didn't step back into her.

Tons of people throw out small engine stuff that has nothing wrong with it except for old fuel and a gummed up carburetor. If you know you're not going to use it for a while you should really either run it out of gas or drain it.
