    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    Punt guns from what I read were almost exclusivly black powder so possibly not as violent a recoil as modern chemistry may hit, but still that would be a lot of powder in a charge. Before bag limits were established and market hunting was a thing , more dead ducks = more pay , there was little...

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Never mind the locomotives , look at that motherload of Pez dispensers on the left! That will get the gals to look twice.

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    My new hepa commercial shop vac is tool actuated, electric and pneumatic. Really helpful to have the vac turn on when you grab the sander or saw and no excuses that it’s just a six in trim , dont need a vac . You always need a vac Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    RCMP and our laws are f'ed up

    Even if he won’t roll over on his buddies , they will collect a few more shortly. These things have a way of getting out if police are interested enough . Dude they caught if convicted will loose his PAL , that’s a start Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    If I was a kitchen or bath installer or interior millwork guy , I’d be all over a Festool cordless saw , no running hundred ft cords , blowing a breaker on some crap circuit , paired with a hepa vac and you can run it in the kitchen . Yes they are stupid money , but so worth it if you’re in the...

    Has the city lost it's mind...

    I watched a ship breaking yard in south India stripping insulation off cables , ten yr old kids inhaling God knows what chemicals from the wires and chopping asbestos cement cladding off pipes with machetes . The other jobs were dangerous so they gave these to kids . Sent from my iPhone using...

    Has the city lost it's mind...

    Gas is expensive , you set the grocery cart on a small pile of skids and light it up , burns longer and the plastic melts off drips into the fire which makes it burn longer and hotter . Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    Steps towards a simpler life

    My wifes family is from Twilingate NF. Most did their best to shed the accent and most of the behaviour . Three rums in you'd need a local translator. My wifes grandfather owned a chandlery ( boat supplies) and engine shop , by the end of WW2 he owned most of the local fishing fleet through...

    Steps towards a simpler life

    Sport is really where the “integration “ shows up . We ran a program this summer on behalf of the SeaScouts and Cadets in Oakville. Ninety five percent were non white kids . Regular enrollment was eighty percent white kids . My help at football camp ( soccer ) was a complete smorgasbord of kids...

    Vendee Globe and other sailing around the world

    current build cost for a monohull IMOCA 60 foiler is about 9million euros, and there are 11 new ones in construction. Demand excceds capacity to build . I wont dispute the trickle down technology, we have two foiling boats sitting at my club (one WASP and one Moth ) , and Canada has a foiling...

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Always start at the top and work south , you won’t see fill in at the floor , you will see them where the eye is drawn @scuba , don’t do it until you can get the Rona contractor desk to tell you where you could see a house that’s been done. They look horrible in person , in my opinion. Sent...

    Vendee Globe and other sailing around the world

    America Cup has lost the plot , it’s beyond millionaires budgets to compete, the boats have no relevance to anything another sailor may sail and as a spectator, you see nothing on the water . The “deed of gift” ( the rules) get rewritten every time somebody gets control of the cup (...

    Oil extractor

    My dad was relentless on oil changes and grease jobs and just cleaning up equipment. Every piece of equipment had a timetable. His thing was service is cheap , repairs are expensive. Also being a farmer having a machine down when you only need it for a week was pretty hard to work around . You...

    Vendee Globe and other sailing around the world

    If they don’t figure out how to stop the catastrophic failures I can’t see this being sustainable. Another complete mast / wing collapse , the foils flying off the French boat like a three foot machete . And then the T bone which chopped the hole in GBs boat . It’s very expensive carnage Sent...

    We Know you Ride, But do you Shoot?

    If you park at McDonalds and a shotgun is locked in your truck , acccording to the law as written , it is securely stored. Now how an Officer interprets that law is another thing. Funny if you look at the hundred cars/trucks parked at a gun club vs. cars and trucks at Bass Pro Shop. Gun club...
