    750' Concrete Driveway Demo/Refinish Help

    Crush it and use it for paver base. I’ve seen it done on road jobs with a special machine. Basically 6 or 8 large steel weights that raise up and drop on the concrete to turn it into rubble. Then pave over it. https://www.antigoconstruction.com/rubblization/2-lane-highways

    Help me judge an aluminum weld

    If that is done on an inverter welder there needs to be more hf cleaning applied to get rid of the contamination.

    Removing Bush Hog blade?

    I think it should lock in place so it it isn’t maybe weld it to the blade.

    Electric Riding Mowers

    My coworker has had the Ryobi electric zero turn going on three years and loves it. Hasn’t had to do anything but sharpen the blades.

    Deer Hunting and deer hunters

    Michigan also requires written permission. CO’s are very lax about this unless there is a complaint. I’ve only been stopped by a CO one time while hunting private property and that’s because the CO lived just down the road. I was going out in the morning and he was going to work. All he really...

    recommendations on new air compressor, pancake Y or N ?

    The newer ultra quiet compressors are awesome. I got one this summer to replace a 15 year old Campbell Housefield 15 gallon and love it.

    Great lake boats, a good video

    Camping in Holland, MI today, got to watch the Calumet leave lake Macatawa and head north into the lake to get another load.

    hard to reach grease fitting

    More like this. Google grease manifold, the ones that came up were not real cheap but I think Lincoln has a lot of this type of stuff. Here’s a good link. Remote Grease Lines and Fittings >> Lube Control

    4,200# of slate, one 75 year old guy

    I did about 1000 sq ft a few years back. Also did alder trim and doors. That slate is a pain to work with but the results are worth it.

    Dixon Ultra 52 ZTR

    Husqvarna bought Dixon so I'd say any Husky dealer should be able to get them. I need a set for my ultra 61, but I really haven't looked too hard though. I can't decide if I want to get the gator blades or not. Big price difference and I'm not sure it's worth it. I did see mine had some numbers...

    Great lake boats, a good video

    There's nothing like spending a nice summer evening in the Soo at the locks observation deck watching the ships go through the locks.

    Small Fishing Boats.... whatcha got?

    I am picking up a new SeaArk 1652 sevi-V this week. It will be my duck boat in the fall and I'll fish out of it the summer. I looked around a lot on CL but never really found a nice wide one. I wanted something really stable for hunting so the wider the better. I also got a 35hp Gator Tail...

    Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

    Ok, what do you guys think of this one, is he overloaded or not? I l also like how he used some vertical logs against the sides so he could stack the wood a little higher. We also drove right by a cop looking for speeders in a 25 mph zone going out of town. The cop didn't seem to care and let...

    Underlayment for Metal Roof

    We put an aluminum shingle roof on our cottage back in August. They definitely don't give that stuff away but it is guaranteed forever and will not rust like most of the steel roofs. The steel has good warranties for corrosion, don't get me wrong, but they do allow rust within 1" of a cut. For...
