DeanD's test thread~!

[fryboy]

yano ...while this thread may of not started out as hard hot and heavy as that g-pal thread it is a much much better thread ( with at least about a billion better subjects than a bunch of fellow fire arm enthusiast getting burned and yes sir IMHO having no topic beats that )

[Lee W]

Should I bump this thread?

Ummm, seems Dean is MIA again. 30 hours. Did the dishwasher repel his attack and get the upper hand?

My primer catcher. I wonder why with all the presses out there why in the heck is there not a good primer catcher. Maybe on the new pricey one but all mine are lower end or old. Seem like on most of them they dont care where the primers go and they go everwhere.

[fryboy]

hope he remembers that "shoot it option " ...... in this case it mite be shoot it with jergens lotion or something to fix dishpan hands ( lanolin will water proof your hands but makes holding on to stuff a adventure in fingerprinting )

You know, he never did give much of a description of the "dishwasher". The dishwasher may have taken umbrage to his attack and put a sudden stop to the proceedings.

What brand of beer comes in a can that large? Dood, that is one honkin big beer can.

[Blacksmith]

With Lite beer they have to give you more to get the same effect.

Is that brass in a fryer basket? New technique?

[fryboy]

fry baskets work sweet ! i recall the thread at lasc where the guy uses 3 of them to heat treat boolits and they were also my first media sifter ( besides i love the name of them :-P )

What cal is that boolit next to the beer can? Looks like a plain base tumble lube mortar

To the right of the beer can and behind the basket? Looks to me like a really, really big soup can boolit. Maybe a 24 pounder.

Drum roll.................

[fryboy]

" Maybe a 24 pounder "

ummm you're seriously underestimating the weight of lead ..unless a hollow point/base it assuredly would weigh at least 75-100+ #'s , hate to think it was any kind of shoulder mounted firearm that fired it but i'd love to watch some one try :-P but i'm willing to split the difference and call it a gallon mortar

KC police fire at backfiring van ( and the van survives -thankfully so did the guy trying to start it )

[RP]

There are 6 sizeing dies in the press all I use it for is sizing my pistols brass. And yes I use a fryer basket anything left after sizer dust media or what ever falls away. I have to special order my super size beer cans and I get the lite so they are not so heavy to lift.

[RP]

And today I went to where cheif ten beers works and picked up some tires for my new back stop. These are jet tires and he told me some of them have kelvar in them plus alot are 10 ply. So I stacked them up and filled with sand and placed a plastic skid in front to keep any bounceing boolits in line. Got the small tires so it would not take so much sand which still took 4 tons to fill them.

Ricky, How far is your range? How easy is lead recovery? Sorry to add sensibility into this thread, it will be the last time.

[thx997303]

Hey, it got lost for a few days.

[fryboy]

i think it was the "sensibility " that got added to it that did it :kidding:

[RP]

I can get a 100 yards off the back porch and lead recover is a no go unless you tear it down. I put some plastic crates in front of the tires to take care of any bounce backs and they have some old steel plates behind them I can gather the lead there. Still working on fine tuning it right now I think iam going to get more steel to help me recover more lead. Oh in the pic the steel is in front but that changed later and added to more skids to the top.

Oh yeah, I fixed my dryer.

Tested the 220 outlet and it was only getting power on one leg.

Turns out the fuses for the 220 are hidden in the floor.

I found em and changed the fuse. Good now.

hmmm wonder if leg fuses are normal or not ....

There has to be a fuse. Just keep feeling around till you find it!

[fryboy]

speaking of fuses ... when young ( i think 11-12 ) i often went coon hunting with my dad , fond memories , he blew a fuse in his old huntin wagon and no replacements , not sure of the circuit but it killed the lights ( all of them ) and was a rather moonless dark nite after a few miles of trying to use our flashlights to get us home he pulled out the offending fuse and inserted a loaded .22 LR ... needless to say i'd be more nervous today than i was in my ignorant youth but it worked , folks i dont suggest this today and to help the blade bayonet type fuses mite of been made to stop this lolz ( easier to put in and pull out in reality )

[Dean D.]

I get busy for a week and look what happens around here!

[Blacksmith]

Mythbusters did a show where they replaced a fuse with a .22. Had a tough time drawing enough current to set it off. When they finally got them to fire they were not very powerfull because the case would blow apart like in a fire. Still not recommended. I have use a piece of wire as a temp. replacement but you run the risk of burning up your wiring harness and setting your vehicle on fire. Fuses are in circuits for a reason.

[MT Gianni]

Lick your finger when you check the fuse. If a penny behind it won't burn the place down there is always gum wrapper foil. Unless you are like Dean and Lloyd and refuse with a hard hat and earplugs.

Maybe this is the reason why he was up for adoption etc. Dan the sucker bought him.

Now I am going to try to enclose an area of my property adjacent to my trailer to keep him from terrorizing the neighborhood and I plan to install a DOGGIE DOOR thru my side door so he can come and go whenever he wants.

Maybe he will get the idea of doing his business outside not inside.

So I need to dig 11 holes for the 4"x4" posts for the wire fence. This is hard ground and I am old and weary so if somebody can ship me some of those used holes I promise to put them to good use.

the problematic aspect of it is variable.... the removed dirt always makes a bigger pile than what can be placed back in the hole by casual means , the other aspect of it is that one must make a bigger hole to end with the finished product which all translates to a increased demand for used post holes in proper sizes ....

This is a regional observance. In this area, you may dig a hole, put in a post, and not have enough dirt to fill and tamp it solid. I have NO idea where the dirt goes. It sure is hard enough to dig out.

I told them I knew a place with an early bird special, I had a coupon and we could ride a bus.

[Tom W.]

How many days in a week? 7
How many weeks in a year? 52
How many days in a year? 365
So tell me what is 52x7?

[oneokie]

1 (one) short?

[fryboy]

a wrong answer :P but ..if u divide the 365 days by 7 you get the right answer ... worse now they decided that there is 13 zodiac signs instead of the 12 that was believed ( maybe cuz they were at first trying the wrong answer or versa vice )

Has Ricky P been using your computer? That thinking is just too odd.

I tried that and got 52.14285714285714
And if you multiply the decimal part of the answer by 4 ( the number of years between leap years ) It doesn't add up to an extra day.. No wonder the "powers that be" changed the Zodiac..... I wonder how old we really are?
:holysheep Is that why the retirement age keeps getting changed?

Hello Rod Serling....

Hello Rod Serling....

Wrap your minds around this:
13x28=364, still one short.

.1428~x7(days in a week)=.98. Still coming up short.

Anyone else notice that it seems like the seasons are moving to later in they year?
Locally, we are averaging our first killing frost just before Thanksgiving whereas when I was a kid, the first killing frost happened in October.
And it is getting to where our last killing frost occurs in April.

I believe I read somewhere that according to theory, a black hole has an opening, and an exit.

[RP]

As far as dirt amounts and holes it depends on if the moon is growing or shrinking. It also effects the water they call it tides from what I heard. Now how many days in the year varies because of leap years. Now I ask here going by the amount of post any one know what IDK means I have asked and asked and all I get back is i dont know. If you dont know just dont post for crying out loud.

[oneokie]

I Don't Know why I shouldn't post a reply and miss out on a freebie post.

Ricky, that is for folks what can't spell, "eye don't no".

[firefly1957]

Now they think Lightening may create anti matter so will that slow or speed this thread?

[Tom W.]

IDK.. but I've been sick all week and on this computer, it's been too cold and I've been too sick to go to the range, so whatever day it is or supposed to be is doesn't matter as there will now have to be a new month added, probably past February, to compensate for the new horoscope.


Hmmm.......






January, February, Arbitrary, March, April........
Fits right in..

[firefly1957]

Please please please...... Make it a warm month my growing season is to short already I should of moved south for retirement !

And everyone wants to know why the Mayan calender ends in 2012! Simple, they knew it wouldn't work out evenly so they quit while they were ahead, allowing future and far more advanced (hee hee!) civilizations to redo the math.

Actually it's a legal problem, their copyright runs out in 2012...

Who knew?

[Finster101]

Cabin fever must be settin in. Black holes, Lube grooves? Zombie threads man! They just refuse to die. Maybe on the vernal equinox if we all hold our monitors toward the sun and the Great and Merciful Tron he will purge us of these hauntings.........






or not.

[firefly1957]

No there is no hope we have to many lawyers we must be cleansed if there are survivors they can write the next calender, worry about black holes, and other things beyond our control.

If we had global warming would there be cabin fever?

[Tom W.]

naw, we'd all go fishing.....

[Three-Fifty-Seven]

Ice fishin'? [smilie=l:

Kinda, sorta. For every 1,000 posts, one gets a boolit. For 5,000 posts one gets a gold boolit. Search for posts by Bret4207 or Buckshot and note under their user names.

Shouldn't that read "Stoodious"?

[fryboy]

aww com'on last i looked i thought it was the g-pal..erm gun-scam thread ....the real question IMHO is which is the best thread ? ( and then we can break it down into several categories and such :P )

[41magfan]

something tells me you might just be right

[RP]

Well with the post count some have worked their way up to boolits and golden boolits posting some good advice and answers or just sharing. Others like me post are more in the line of wasted banned width with alot of misspelled words and bad grammer. I am just glad we not graded on our post.

[fatnhappy]

As an observer who knows something about an outhouse ending up on top of a school house many years ago, I will say the chain may not be a bad idea....

[Tom W.]

Observer, or instigator?

[firefly1957]

home in oz Some think if you go in the black hole fast enough you will begin somewhere else and maybe sometime else....Thinking about this is a good way to get a headache.

Instigator I bet also How many does it take to lift a out house onto a school?

[oneokie]

Only an outhouse? No team drawn wagon? Bunch of slackers they were.

I dont think we worked our way up to the top of the food chain just to go back to only eating veggies.

[Murphy]

So I'm sittin' here figuring, Murph...you've never been real big on crowds and such. But what the hell...why miss out on a 'Free Post' and getting to be a part of one of the LONGEST threads on Castboolits?

This has been my contribution to this thread for the year....I think.

so if we quit eating animals doesnt that mean that we will have to kill more vegetables ? what about vegetable rights , i mean seriously nomatter what we eat we have to kill something by that thought killing one cow and eating for oh a week or two be much more humane ( and less murderous ) than killing say 100 pounds of alfalfa sprouts ( that's lot of murdering goin on just to eat for a week or so ....) think of it ...hundreds of murders vs. one .... and every bean ... a poor embryonic seed just waiting to grow up and have baby beans - how many bean sprouts or beans to eat for as long as that cow fed us ? and they claim meat eaters are inhumane geez i think they ate too much tofu ........

[Tom W.]

Put the Crown Royal away now, Fryboy, and go back to the recliner....

[a.squibload]

...100 pounds of alfalfa sprouts...

Ick!

I'll take pinto beans anytime.

I bet every time your mow your lawn, you have a little quite weep. ;)

dang crown royal ... the weak whiskey wannabe ....( yuck ) in honor of the thread's name ( lolz ) i thought it fair to give fair play to why one murder was much more humane than hundreds ... i have to admit that everything is alive , souls etc are another matter of debate but as long as we can honestly say that veggies were once alive ( go ahead and deny it if you dare ) never mind the fact that the poor cow grazed on billions of blades ( see eating just one saves billions more !!! ) .... also from the black hole ...i'll share but an excerpt from "manifesto; the scribbles of j.

Yes boats are not just for holding the water out but make nice redneck yard pools.
