    Do you guys make your own rack to attach to the Buddy heater. I just got a new Buddy heater and was thinking about getting a baking rack and cutting/bending it to make it easy to attach to the grate on the heater.

    Some people use a paint roller rack (found in paint dept at menards and such)
    I used a wire shelving rack and cut/bent. They are a bit heavier duty and can be found in shelving dept at menards and such.

    knockoff carb and oil pump on Amazon are $16 and $8.
    I’ve used these knockoffs as a whole and also parts and they have been good for me. Easy jobs to replace those parts.

    Deep cycle boat/RV batteries.
    Watch this video.
    The initial start up draws like 10 amps and normal run amp draw is about 2 amps if I recall. Your results are normal for what you used and Im actually surprised it ran that long to be honest considering the start up for the glow plug draw.

    Not sure why we want to… In Depth Outdoors not current events
    No publicity should be given.

    The boy handled the tree this year from cutting it down to decorating.
    Secondly, I was out last Friday and come into school this morning with the shop being decorated by my students last Friday.

    I looked into the 30BB last week when FF had them on sale.
    I watch 2 minutes of the intro video from vexilar and said F that.

    RR or Buck really depends on the physical size of the child.
    I initially bought the RR for my son but realized it was too large and bought the buck. It is nice now having 2 (big and small) as now neighbor kids and nieces/nephews can use them.

    No age is too young to start them out, just embed the safety into them.
    The BBs do bounce back as they are hard steel so do wear eyes.

    Maybe buy one of each of find a buddy with one and borrow to fit?

    Sad days when these companies are bought by larger corporations. Quality never goes up.

    Have you taken the cover off and tried to listen for where it is coming from?

    If removing often go Aluminum.
    If you want it dry make sure the topper is not just a sit on the bed rails but it wraps past.
    J hooks are better that those junky clamps.
    I added backer plates and 4 boat bow eyes to the top of my fiberglass topper and use a block and tackle to remove it, its fairly easy but another person or machine sure helps.

    We began our son at 5 on a ttr50e.
    If she is physically big enough for the 4stroke series the electric start is sure nice for kids, especially when a carbed bike floods the engine on a dump.

    All of the kids bikes have a throttle limiter screw.
    Shifting is really not a big issue as you start the 50cc strokers in any gear till kids get shifting down.

    I would stick with name brands over the Chinese knock off brands, name brands will hold their value, and parts are easy to find, especially plastics when they wreck.
    I highly suggest dad get a bike too as kids at age of 6 can be on the trails on OHM vs I think 10yo on an ATV.

    Hope to see you at the Theilman ride one of these years!

    Less is more.
    Too many moving parts and fasteners on JOI.
    As already mentioned, things can fall apart.

    NO, you are probably the first to ever think of that, what a genius.

    I buy my boats to use, I am not afraid to drill a hole.

    Also when I try to sell stuff I use a picture so my potential customers can actually see the product, not just some chitty vague line…

    Sounds like a reason to have a GOOD tax person and not do it yourself.
    I am all for doing things yourself but when it comes to the ins and outs of knowing all tax laws and loopholes having someone who takes the time to know your life saves/ makes you money.

    Make sure the wires for the servo are not near any spark plug wires, they will pick up stray induction electriciry and make the servo hold higher levels of throtttle.
    Also any extra wire should be wrapped in fig 8 shape rather than a circle coil.

    Use this as a reference as some of the info given above is not accurate…
    https://www.lrl.mn.gov/docs/2015/other/151253.pdf

    For that timeline you should be able to launch somewhere between Mcquade and two harbors, fishing the top 20′ with stick baits and spoons.
    Exactly where will be dependent on water surface temp which is moved by the wind. General rule is to fish in 44 to 54 degree water, that temp range could be on the surface or down deeper in the water column depending on time of year and your location.

    Assuming fishing MN waters as you said Duluth.

    Why Inflatables are not legal for kids and made in kid sizes is beyond ridiculous.
    What kid wants to sit in a life jacket on a 90 degree day in the sun???

    The caulking job is a total disaster, sloppy as all get out and who uses white all over a brown gutter/Blue house.
    I am really not surprised it is still an issue and would question anything being done by that company.

    Either endcap issue or a kickout flashing that was altered by the siding crew, a KO flashing should look like the picture posted by another user. Though they do not look the best it is WAY better that getting the water behind the siding and down the wall, which is why KOs started being used.

    Why is this $h!t even on the “NEWS”??????????
    Scumbag corporations that can’t even show all the great things happening in our world have to focus on the crap.

    That much would not even bother me if it were a tandem axle…
    F or E on the fuel tank of that rig will make it change that much.

    Well son, you can go to a concert for 2 hours or buy a new gun…
    That is how I handle things of the sort.
    Plenty of small fish to see at town festivals that are pretty darn good also if it is about that particular experience.
    Offer a substitute that has higher dividends.

    I see you have Mille Lacs listed, I used this guy and he was knowledgeable and fair.

    I can vouch for Justin in Isle, he was one of my shop students when I worked in Isle.

    Rain fly to the ground is a MUST!
    Most tents can only fit half the number of people listed…

    I would temp mount it first, tape the transducer to a stick and C-clamp to transom.
    Secondly, you may find it very tough to keep jig in the cone of the Vex due to boat drift. Again you can figure this out with a Temp mount before you put effort into a full install.

    turn off fuel.
    Run till it starts bogging then begin to use the choke and throttle to keep her alive till she quits and put her to sleep.

    or simply turn off fuel and drain the carbs via the bowl drain screw.
