Good morning!!!!

just wrote another epistle, this time to the County Commissioners complaining about potential fraud and bad doings in the tax assessor's office.
They are intentionally inflating appraised values and I caught them. Amounts to only a few dollars on one acre in question, which just by listening to me complain they have lost money on. But they aren't that smart...
Hope I have stirred up a hornet's nest vs getting ignored. Dishonest bureaucrats whose salary my taxes pay for.

Interesting, just got a call from a County Commissioner who said I was absolutely right to complain, the assessors were patronage jobs, they didn't know what they were doing, and I should stay in the game. Most interesting...

Careful, they'll declare imminent domain, pave paradise and put up a parking lot! :D

What price would you put on this blade?View attachment 497439View attachment 497440View attachment 497441
It's a 7 foot blade, 6 way - with manual tilt, angle, and offset.
Stand included.

Don, if you have the ability to hook this blade up on 3-point do so and make sure that blade can tilt, angle and offset manually. It looks like it's not made to add hydraulic cylinders without lots of fab work.

If it hasn't been maintained some or all three axis of motion might be froze up. If it just rust, it can be disassembled and fixed after about $150 purchase. If king pin is bent ..... Lo Siento Mucho!

If everything moves easily, with blade lifted, offer $250 and settle for $300.

I speak from experience as I bought a 8' Rhino blade, in early 1990's, for $100 and couldn't rotate blade even pushing end against a very big tree.

Good Luck!

Good evening all. 37F for the low this morning, calm wind and thick overcast. Overcast started breaking up early afternoon, wind became moderate from the north and temp made it to 52F. With no computer to work on, cleaned up desk, worked on wood pile, went for bike ride, came to agreement on new bike price, need to put deposit down and pick tires, seat, fenders, back rack. Stepdaughter helped with a furniture rearrange project, which took about an hour and delayed supper :eek:

I just took it off my tractor yesterday everything works. I use it about once a year.

Thanks. Do you series them?

Yes, I'll do 12 runs, 3 in series, to support 48vdc system. 4 would exceed the 150vdc max of the charge controllers. I'll have 12 panels, 3360w per CC, my 4th cc will be my existing 4kw array.

My Canadian friend, Dave, and I pretty much planned out a build in place approach. Tomorrow, I'll be busy predrilling 2x2 aluminum angle for support frames. Hope to get installed Monday, but wx report is sounding less than optimistic with strong winds and rain.

I've been off work for a week and usually don't get on here much at home. Many pages back I mentioned getting a new sled. First trip out was great. It far outperforms my old sled (2012)
In SLC it is raining a little with more rain/snow mix until Wednesday. Temps are mild with it being 48 right now at 11 pm.

amazing picture Cat Fever, you should get it enlarged and framed. That sure looks like fun.

up for a dunk in the hot tub, legs bothering me again, thankfully it works great. Pretty quiet out now, stars are out, didn't even turn on the water jets, just lay in 103 degree water in peace and quiet. 20 minutes at 103f and cooked to perfection.
