    Storage box options

    I went to Home Depot and do not like the Plano boxes they seem flimsy and the 108 qt has Moulding inside taking up space. May still be 108qt but the plastic extrusions inter fear with storage. There is also no seam to run weatherstrip. OTOH, 54qt has the seam, smooth interior but was also...

    Well, if the slats are different spacing the rack would not work. Unless it’s adjustable. I’ll have to check into that.

    I need a solution for storage on a rooftop Rhino Pioneer platform that I can use ratchet straps on. I was looking at the FrontRunner wolf packs but they dont appear to have anywhere to thread the strap through/or into. I’ve seen some on top of various rigs but never paid attention to the...

    Lets See Your Solar Setups

    MC4. No difference in connectors except the difficulty on separating them, lol. You can always hack off the MC4 and put SAEs. Or make Anderson set ups. My connection goes from the controller to a short lead to butt connectors. The other end of the butts go to MC4s to the panel. On a 50foot...

    Lets See Your Solar Setups

    With a 230 watt panel I would think you have a lot of room to spare. I’m no expert but it seems like a lot if that is all you are running. You need to figure out your daily ah needs and size according. Panels will provide charge even on overcast days-but not as much. I based my system size on...

    Let's talk frying pans

    I season my Dutch ovens and skillets using the oven method. Burn-off, Oil, 350° Upside down in the oven for an hour, cool completely and repeat 3x total. Bullet proof. Lasts like, forever, unless I screw it up. Does stink up the house. Will have to try the salt and potato method next time...

    2 burner camping stove recommendations?

    Just had my Camp Chef Everest go haywire on me this weekend. One burner anyway. I guess REI has a one year return limit now, cause I tried to take it back. I only used it about 8 times. I called the company today and it is out of warranty, but they offered to sell me new burners, haha. I bought...

    My Journey

    So, I’m chiming in a little late and a little long , Not to hijack ;=) but a little background... The authentic golden spike celebration in Promontory was indeed a big one for the history buffs. However, the bigger story for “steam fans” culminated in Ogden UT on the 10th. If I was in the...

    My Journey

    I forgot about Tanners fall. That’s pretty remarkable -fifty feet- that he was ok. The three pics starting with the boyz down are awesome, and the jagged peaks in the distance. Are you carrying your DSLR camera? (Sheep pic)

    My Journey

    Jerry, I to shared your story with my wife. It is very touching and you are to be admired for being the shinning star in this whole mess at our borders. How can we help? Maybe set up something with the Walmart manager? We can donate some money or purchase some foods or goods and have them “hold...

    My Journey

    The fox-hide booth is disturbing. I wish I wouldn’t have seen the picture but I understand it is part of the story, and rememnering that deranged women you met-and her business practices. Oh well, takes all kinds. Those kinds of vendors should not be allowed into the show imo, guess it’s a...
