Life goes on - Winter 2022

Have you ever gotten Peanut Gallery critiques about the gasifier from the inspector?

Cody, this last inspector didn’t raise an eyebrow, since he knows perfectly well what’s going on.
Earlier inspectors - sometimes smiles and sometimes curiousity. As far as I remember no critique whatsoever.

I am so sorry for you Wayne. I recommend finding a Shaman and have him do a exorcism. Anyone from the Feds is as good as having Old Nick himself come for a visit.

Here is an example of how the Federal government deals with one endangered frog.

this kind of people in the beginning are a bit surprised, but than they discover that , when a lot of people would do this, there will be KILLED a lot of trees, and it would be better to forbid such a technology…also using waste wood like wayne from his saw mill, is at least not ecologic, because for the earth is better it would mould and rotten on the ground…not to think about someone who makes charcoal!!!..but those people drive with petrol and go by airplane continously…
we have had used a “horse motor”, where the horse goes around to move our tresher and band saw, also a mill…and young environtment loving poeple sayd : poor horse!
i responded to them, if it would be better if there would stand a diesel engine instead of the horse…they don´t know what to answer…hypocritics

Great job on the build. I love the studded tires. Here in Washington State the USA you will have to remove studded tires by April 1 to drive on our paved roads. It doesn’t matter if there is still snow on the mountain highway road passes. Stupit dumb law makers with no common sense.

Thanks Bob, yeah the tires and rims was free, so it became a “combination”.
The same here, law’s says winter-tires (studded or alround) from “this to this” date, no fun to work as a mechanic, like i do this time a year, soon everyone wants their summer-tires put on at the same time… :face_exhaling:

I think studded tires were banned in Michigan around 1970. That was sad.

We talked about hazelnut threes spring-blooming some time ago, i saw this at my brother’s place today, not a “real” hazelnut, garden variety, i don’t know if “witch hazel” is the correct translation?
