    Anyone else have an unusually large number of hummingbirds this year?

    I have two feeders. 1 cup and two cup. I'm making a batch of juice now. It takes about 12 days for the birds to drink it all.

    Trailer warning, this could happen to you

    I thought you were going to tell the same story I had once. Towing my empty 14' duel axle and hit a bump and the leaf springs on the front axle flipped. Causing the tail to wag the dog. Exciting at 50 mph.

    Another Question for electricians...

    As a new residential electrician in 1982, I built a lot of weather proof services. Builder house plans were not reversed to put garage on service pole side of the lot. WP service was cheaper than extending service into the garage. Owners did not want the breaker panel in a bedroom or living room.

    Any mathmeticians here

    I think you need 10 spigots. If you want to start with one in each corner. Dark blue being a spigot light blue being coverage.

    B7100

    My wife's B6100 started leaking coolant at the front of engine. I found the leak to be from the Dinamo mount. After 55 years the aluminum base corroded. Not an easy to replace part.

    B7100

    I had one with a loader. It did not look anywhere near as good as that one. And it had about 2500 hours on it. I sold it to a mechanic at the dealer where I bought the BX23s. My wife has a B6100.

    Anyone else have an unusually large number of hummingbirds this year?

    I thought I saw a hummingbird fly around the area outside my breakfast room window Saturday morning. So yesterday I cleaned up a feeder and made up some liquid. And today one came to visit. In past few years we only get maybe 4 - 5 birds. So we will wait to see how many we get this year.

    Inflatable Paint Booth?

    I've never used one or heard of it. But 10 feet would not be enough for me to walk around a car with a spray gun comfortably.
