    Vacant and Vacancy Tax Spreading?

    I own a cottage in Ontario and have had to file the UHT for 2 years now. My wife is also listed on the property deed, and she needs to file a separate (and duplicate) return. Fortunately, for seasonal cottage owners there are currently some exemptions that eliminate the 1% fee. If not for...

    PICS OF BARNS; Any barns; All barns; My barn; Your barn; Not your barn

    I only noticed it last summer. There was very fine sawdust on some of the items I had stored down there, but I did’t think much of it until I was taking pictures for Eddie Walker and noticed more of it, plus the tiny holes.

    Thank you old and tired. From what i have been reading about Powder post beetles, it seems that is what I have.

    PICS OF BARNS; Any barns; All barns; My barn; Your barn; Not your barn

    No moisture other than minor humidity in the summer, nothing like southern states though. The first picture is very fine saw dust at the base of the post. My next post shows the tiny holes in the wood beams. I included the snap for size perspective, but most of the holes are just a bit larger...

    Since this thread seems to attract all the barn lovers, maybe i can get some help with this. Here's some pictures of damage I noticed on the beams downstairs. Can anyone give me some idea of what this is from and how I can stop it? I've never noticed anything crawling around on them.

    This barn is only 30 or so years old. Built by Amish folk with lumber my father and I harvested off our farm. My Mother made a beautiful watercolor of it several years later. I tried to get the same angle.

    Post your favorite winter time stew or soup (Bonus points if it's easy)

    I will venture a guess that NO ONE has ever had this soup. My Mother would make this for my Dad often, especially on a day when she had made Homemade Bread. My wife will make it for me only when she is cooking for me alone, as I am the only one that will eat it! Peas with Eggs Dice a small...

    TODAY'S GUN TIME

    I stopped at 6 different gun stores, and called at least 10 more between upstate NY and South Carolina yesterday. I was able to purchase 5 boxes of 8 shot. Lots and lots of buckshot at almost every store, and a few had slugs too. Some overseas brand of some sort, not the usual Federal...

    TODAY'S GUN TIME

    Hey everyone, I am wondering what the ammunition situation is in different parts of the country? In NY, almost everything is hard to find. But I am hearing from a few that in Ohio, shelves are fairly well stocked. I know it has been lean for a few months all over, but has it changed at all...

    Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Pictures of your snow weapons

    I bought a Woodmaxx in November and used it this past season. Worked great and it is a good heavy duty implement. I decided on Woodmaxx because they have an electric motor option for the chute rotation. Otherwise I would have had to add another set of hydraulics to the rear, as those are...

    Snow Equipment Owning/Operating Pictures of your snow weapons

    Thanks to some advice on this thread, here is my upgraded Snow Removal Tool. For the past 6 years, I've had an open station and front mount plow, which was fine for about 80% of snow we can get in the snow belt of upstate NY. This year i added the Original Tractor Cab and the Woodmax...

    Hydraulic hook ups to Titan Attachments Grapple

    I ordered a Titan Attachments Grapple (after calling their Customer Service to verify which model grapple would fit my JD4410 tractor with 430 loader). After I unpacked the shipping crate I looked at the hydraulic quick connects. Not even close to the same size! I called them and they told me...

    Pop ups while using TBN

    How does your garden grow?

    I don't have a garden per se, but have a plot of garlic that I just harvested tonight. I do a few tomatoes and peppers in pots, as well as several herbs.

    Fence questions

    No, it was Anthony Burkholder out of Carthage, NY. He had a Bobcat rigged up with the pile driver and drill. These are the black locust posts I used. I bought them locally, but had to peel the bark from them before they could be pounded in. 88 posts, I had a good workout!

    Adding a TV wirelessly

    Wouldn't a few of these work? I used them for my Super Bowl party at my old house, had 5 TV's running the game all over the house, even in the bathroom. Only problem was the main cable box TV was 3 or 4 seconds ahead of everyone else and the people in that room would cheer or yell ahead of...

    The killer turkeys are getting BOLD!

    Oh my, what a different conversation here than on the hunting forums I visit! I don't know about turkeys in other parts of the US, but northeast turkeys are great table fare. Wild turkey is delicious, all parts of it, not just the breasts. Like any wild game, or even any meat, it needs...

    Draw Knife Recommendation Needed

    I need to peel about 80 black locust logs for fence posts. The posts are recently cut and green. I am seeing mixed reviews on draw knives, which is the tool I think I need to do this. I don't mind spending $100 for a quality tool, and I believe I could use it for a few other projects around...

    Looking for advice on an Eastern Kansas Turkey Hunt

    We are heading to eastern Kansas to see some friends and we are planning to turkey hunt together. Has anyone ever hunted that area for Turkey? Looking for some guidance mostly on location, but also if the tactics are any different than hunting them in NY. (probably not) We will be on...

    John Deere 25A Flail Mower

    I got lucky and found a John Deere 25A flail mower on Craigslist. It was built in 1981 and is in very good condition! I still have the brush hog for rough areas, but now that I've got these areas cleared out of large rocks, small trees etc. I can use the flail mower for a nicer finish. It...

    Added LED lights to my 4410.

    I added a LED light bar to the front end and 2 smaller round lights on the rear of my tractor. Can't wait for the next snow storm! I just added the lights to the wiring already in place, so when the headlights come on, so does the front light bar, and when the rear signals come on, so do the...

    Can someone identify this wood please?

    This tree fell down on my property this spring. I started cutting it up this afternoon and then split a few of the chunks. I am not sure, but I think it is ash. Before I spend too much time and effort cutting and splitting I want to be sure it is worth my while to use it as a firewood. Ash...

    what to do with 1000's of feet of hi-tensile wire fence??

    I have a 10 acre field that was surrounded with a hi-tensile wire fence several years ago. It is now mostly overgrown, and no longer needed. I'd like to remove it and keep the round PT posts to use on the main horse paddocks. (4 rail 5/4 X 6" PT deck boards) The top wire is a 1" wide...

    JD4410 Indicator light codes.

    Had another set of flashes on my JD4410 tonight, 3 short, 1 long. Everything seems to be working fine. Maybe it's just a maintenance reminder? I'd love to know if there was a place I could look these up on my own without posting it or calling the dealer each time. Thanks!

    Proper pasture and garden preparation - looking for advice

    I have a John Deere 4410 that I would like to use for preparing a garden and to "renovate" horse pastures every 4 or 5 years or so. I have been looking for 3 point hitch tillers and may have found one at a good price (48", $1500, 6-7 years old) Q1 - is this the proper attachment for what I...

    Busy canning and wine weeks!

    genusCaster, Right you are, wrong terminology. Here is something similar to what we use: I can't imagine straining all those tomatoes through that. We have a couple of those strainer baskets, but we use them to filter out the seeds and skins from our wine-making. So it is still getting...

    Busy canning and wine weeks!

    It's been a busy couple of weeks for canning and winemaking. My wife and I put up 185 quarts of tomato puree and 30 quarts of whole roma tomatoes, plus 48 jars of pickled peppers. And we also bottled 60 gallons of cabernet saugvignon from last year and started another 60 gallons of zinfandel...

    Echo EVL500

    Echo EVL500

I can't get it started and was told that it needs a new carburetor at the least. I was also told that the carb is no longer available. So...
