SOG Flash II.

that must be Ben's other gig.

Moved a ton as well. I read through your thread on AFJ. A few things to consider. used tubs are always heavier than new ones since they have had water in them (try as you may, it is nearly impossible the get 100% of the water out) and the wood skirting and the insulation has absorbed some water, the water remaining in the lines all adds up to extra weight. The way we moved most were on their sides. Get the power disconnected, stand it up on its side on an old piece of carpet and slide the carpet to wherever you need to go. Also used 1 1/2 inch PVC sections and did the pyramid roll a few times as well. On the deck, if you can’t get the railing off and replaced after you move the tub, try the stairs. Not the easiest, but definitely been done before. Once it’s on its side and you’re able to move it around, you would be surprised where and how you can move it. We had custom built dollies with pneumatic tires that we used once the tubs were on the ground. It's hard to tell what kind of tub that one is, but the better ones have foam filling the entire cavity between the skirt and the shell. This adds rigidity to the unit so it makes it easier to move. Our crews usually consisted of three guys. When it goes on a raised deck like that one, we used a couple more. Anything more than that and it was too crowded and made it more difficult. Cranes are applicable as well, we took one off of a 9th story balcony downtown once. Lifted one over a house in Clintonville so the guy could put it in his courtyard. Its surprising where some people want these things. If you have any detailed questions shoot me a PM, I will be glad to help in any way I can.

Many Moons ago I srviced and installed hot tubs all over the state of Ohio. We would never touch the electrical hookup for insurance and liability reasons. Get someone who knows what they are doing when it comes to a 50 amp 220V hookup. Dont skimp on this, it will only hurt yourself, your property and possibly your friends.

Dont know where this is but i would like to be there!

I live in the sticks and have frontier DSL. its only 3 meg down and 768k up (used to be 768k down and that SUCKED), but it works great for me. I can RDP into my desktop at the office via a Citrix connection all day with no issuses. netflix streams great too.

i got mine. Fire engine Red!!!

She is not but I am. the nuts and bolts of this phone will be more for me than her I have to admit. Still it needs to last and be somewhat user friendly for her sake. I hear good things about android and Its flexibility. And I just dont like the Apple way. Radnor Aint a 4G area for sprint thats for sure.

I am looking at smartphones for the wife (cant find one with a tasty sammich maker though:D) Currently she has a very cheap NO frills pay as you go phone that works as a phone, but doesn't have a camera, browser, etc. I am pretty much sold on the HTC EVO Shift 4g from sprint with the everything data plan but I have concerns with the slider keyboard (one of her requirements is that it has a qwerty keyboard) and its longevity. Anyone have any experience with this model or one like it? Anyone have any suggestions for a smart phone for a non-technical person?

Not sure if this is the same as the battery tenders. I think this may be a battery maintainer. I.e. maintains whatever level the battery is at when connected. So if the battery is half drained when you hook it up, it will maintain that half drained state for the duration its connected instead of charging the battery to full and then changing to trickle charge mode. I may be WAY off on this but i am 95% sure that's how it works.

Condolences to family and friends.

Same Here!! When did this start?!?

So they were onterviewing people on 10TV the other day and thos lady was discussing why these fountains are so great. Why the hell does she have that on her head????

I got an email yesterday saying it has shipped and i should receive it in 7 - 10 business days.

And they are built like a tank. I have drug mine through some serious crap when hunting and it has yet to let me down. A good cleaning and its good as new.

I don't have anything for sale but I figure I would throw my two cents in here. I own a JD 2305, 28 hp diesel, 4wd with a 220 loader, a 62 inch belly mower and a host of 3 point implements (grader blade, box blade, tiller, spreader, roller). My tractor was my passion before I got back into motorcycles. It has handled everything I have thrown at it with ease. from Plowing my 800' driveway all winter (and a few of the neighbors), mowing 5.5 acres all summer, moving dirt, mulch, gravel, trees, whatever around with the loader. I have had it for 5 years now and it the only problem I have had is debris on the gas tank (my own fault). I know people say I paid extra for the green paint and all that BS but I tried all the major brands out and looked at grey market too. I bought based on fit and finish. The other brands didn't seem to have the same attention to detail that JD did. Very happy with the tractor. Like I said, just putting my two cents out there so take it for what its worth.

After an unfortunate encounter with a gas powered weed-eater falling from its hook where its hung for five F-ing years with no issue, I now have two small indentations and one dent, along with three scratches in my tank right in front of the seat. Has anyone tried the dry ice method or one of the paintless dent removal companies to remove small dents and dings from their gas tanks? I called a few and they were all kind of iffy and "had to get back to me after they talk to some of their techs". These dents are nothing major and I am sure I can get the scratches to buff out, just pissed about the whole situation. Interesting fact. Did you know that a gas powered weed-eater can be thrown like a javelin out of a garage for about 50 feet with the right motivation?

Whats BSLR??
