The worksharp electric sharpener never leaves the cupboard anymore. you have to be so careful not to ruin the tip of a blade and it will remove it, FAST. not worth it to me. I use a work sharp guided sharpener now with diamond and ceramic stones. Yes, it takes longer, but i can get my knives very sharp, with an actual sharp and pointy tip.

This is what I would want. I sure don’t want a knife that is sharp from the mud section ant not sharp out towards the tip.

Is that what most sharpeners will do that are electric? Thanks

The northern i did turned out good. Nothing wrong at all with it. Kept decent moisture but not to much. Sure is alot of shrinkage on northern. Had one bass also. That was fine as well.

Well, I live in Buffalo county and I also deliver this sort of stuff to mailboxes.
We do the boxholders, meaning every box gets one.
What we deliver is always local realator company’s sending these out.
Never seen an out of state entity looking to buy up property.

Maybe someone in realator experience will pipe up.

I have 3 HECO shacks. Light weight and you can have 3 holes. With enough room for your stuff and a heater if you would need the heater.

Anyone interested in one let me know. I’d probably sell 1?

Coming May 15, 2025. After that date if you send a package and want tracking you’ll have to dig deeper into your coin purse. They call this new service “Tracking Plus”. I can’t see where it’s any different from the tracking they already offer, ineffective as it is, other than the charge for you to track your package so I wonder why they haven’t called this “Plus” Tracking.

I’m currently tracking, or trying to, a package that was ordered last week and the tracking says it has already been delivered…. to a mailbox in January 2025. It really doesn’t do much for my confidence that anything I order will actually get here using current mail service.

Oh boy Tom, now I feel bad.

Haven’t been here for awhile. Figured I’d pop in…

135# of venison weiners smoked Saturday.

Where are you located? There was both a tall and short HECO manufactured, which one you got? Thanks

Well as an out of stater that always looks to vacation or travel to a spot to fish or hunt. I’ve never been to a place owned by a reservation. And I won’t. Is this beneficial to them? Does the state lose all tax revenue from this? How about local city and county taxes? How is that going to affect local businesses, property owners, and homeowners? Good luck.

Get a set of large or extra large Kahtoola Microspikes. Got them this year and they are amazing, they grip the ice better then anything I’ve tried before.

Yes this. That’s what’s we use on white mouse boots.

We went in September last fall. Flew into Anchorage and stayed in an ABB for 3 days. Toured around that area with car rental. Lots to do. Then took train from airport to our ship (NCL). Trip was awesome.

It’s not all old Grey haired people. Their were family’s as well. Awesome trip.
Cruise was 7 days with stops and excursions.

We got the drink package and also had 2 nice meals to sit down included. Otherwise you can eat and drink all day on the ship. That was included.

Questions send me a message. Next year might be a 2 week trip land. We do know some people up there and 1 is a guide. So that’s why we’ll do the land trip.

Don’t turn down the trip. You’ll enjoy it.

Good advise Tom. I’ve done a little smoking meat as well in my days.

Opps. Jimmy Jones.

Thanks for rhe help getting me back here. I’ve tried along time to get signed in.

Without them enjoy the bugs. They are eating machines and also kinda cool. They’ll be gone in a couple months.
