    Hard water - need advice

    Wow, I thought we had hard water here in Vegas. Apparently it's not as bad as I thought after seeing this. If the calcium carbonate is that bad, you should see evidence of it around faucet openings. It it's that bad you likely have build up in your home's plumbing system as well. It'll be hell...

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    You nailed it. Took me awhile to catch on. After it dawned on me the hood I was using wasn't going to cut it, I picked one up that has some type of light gathering tech built into it plus it has a 10 inch window. Works pretty good, at least I can see the weld area now thank goodness.

    Yes he is but found I had problems other than actually welding that made things a lot more difficult.

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    Don't know about the hood lens except it's an auto darken job. No glasses under. Welder is 140 Easy MIG. I've been trying different angles to see what works. Got some soap stone and yellow marker paint yesterday, going to try it today. Am researching whether some kind of very strong LED light...

    Beginner welder here. Started playing around with a bench top welder and soon found out how hard it is to see where you're going with the weld. I can't see anything but the weld pool! What do you all use to mark, or get a better view of, the weld pool?

    Tariffs and Potential Inflation

    The noted economist, Milton Friedman, makes a solid case that the greatest inflation in our economy comes from one source, government spending. Economist Milton Friedman famously stated, "Inflation is made in Washington," attributing the root cause to excessive government spending and money...

    Nevada Area 24

    Best of luck, some day you'll draw it. I arrived on the day after the opener. On the second day I met up with a real nice NR guy who told me it took him 30 years to draw the tag. Fate/luck, whatever you call it, was with him. He and his wife woke up after daylight the morning after he arrived...

    Nevada Area 24

    Tbh, unit 24 was probably not the best choice for a hunter of my experience. It is a great area, and there are some very big mulies, but, for me, finding them was impossible. If there is ever a next time, I'll have the experience to know exactly where/how to hunt the unit. Anyone getting a buck...

    Let’s talk about the 243win

    Somewhat embarrassing to say, but my 243 gave me my first and, so far, only big game animal, a speed goat.

    Oh, the irony!

    Looks like this thread has about been beat to death. But, as far as I'm concerned, I make no bones about being happy with the outcome of the election. Regardless I don't consider myself beholden to anyone. I'm following this issue and will be vocal and critical of anyone who tries to undo public...
