Great job on the stand. I like that it folds for travel. I don't have to haul mine so I build them solid. Did this rebar/t-post stand a few weeks ago.

You are welcome. I hope this pans out for you as it is always a good idea to have data available for as many powders as possible when availability is low. Thatshow I found TiteWad and am happy I put...

I haven't had a tick come out of a tree yet. I have had them crawl all the way up my clothes and over my collar or in my sleeve. If they are stuck they are usually down low, especially where you...

I looked at their clothing on Amazon last night. They claim to have a version of Permetherin that lasts longer on clothes. If the claim is true it is a good deal for what you get. They do sell a...
