That's exactly how i got my first taste of pomegranates. I was 8 or 9 and the house 2 doors down on the opposite side of the alley had a tree on the back fence, stole 2-3 of them and proceeded to figure out how to eat them. When i was a kid, all the kids on the block would get together and...

Never use butter to coat cast iron cookware after washing. It being an animal product, it can rot over time and could potentially make you sick. It too normally has salt in it which can make the cast iron rust, which negates the whole idea. As far as spray can oils, the solvents in them, i...

Great pics and story. I hope to just GO like this one these days.

P-38 all the way, you don't need nothing more. Use it enough, and you can get a smooth edge on the cans you open with it.

My grandfather died and took his recipe with him, haven't had really good pancakes in 25 years, although most pancakes ive had have been good. I think he used bacon drippings, buttermilk, ???? To hell with the can stuff, pioneer baking mixes rock! Pecans, caro syrup, bare rabit syrup, all...

http://www.stubbsbbq.com/index.php If you have the time read about the man. Like many from my beloved state, he was bigger than life. His sauces and rubs are the best in the state, therefore, the world!:sombrero: BTW i'm just a little bit opinionated about Texas. If your ever in Austin, be...

x2 on j bolts, i used 3/16 j bolts, hasn't budged an inch.

Mine has 3.55's right now. I don't plan on going much higher than the cab with the top down. The pos tires that came from the factory are starting to chip out. So i will probably just go with a set of 265's and go slow off road. Thanks for your answers, and as soon as i get started on the...

That's what i'm trying to stay away from, at least for now. There's not much money to put in it each month, and most of that will go into the camper. Now in 3 years after i get it paid off, that's another situation all together. I'm just trying to get this thing together for camping trips next...

Mine will be hard sided, i have considered using a bifold door technique on the front and rear or sides, with flip up panels on the opposite side to lock them in place. I've got no drawings on the computer yet, otherwise i would post it. Normally when i build things, i have the design in my...

will the sikaflex melt the foam? This is basically what i'm planing.

Hey Guys, Got a question. Im sure it probably on here somewhere but haven't found it yet, Ive got a stock 08 f150 with 3.55 limited slip. I'm guessing that with the leveling kit i could go 33"s but im thinking i should stay at 31 or 32"s. Its 4x4 reg cab short wide, with 4.6 v8. My plans are...

resurrection Thanks for posting this. You saved an old warhorse. After reading some of the other threads in this forum, i had taken to the idea of abandoning my chuck box for weatherproof plastic containers. It different than yours, but i too have fond memories of cooking with it. I learned to...

Those are some really good pics! What did you take them with? We're practically neighbors, i'm in Mineral Wells. I grew up in Lubbock and for quite a few years, i went camping in Colorado. I miss it so much, i haven't been in 12 years! There's a dirt track up a canyon that leads to Cripple...

the teardrop trailer people suggest good quality birch plywood. Some will also tell you that any good quality exterior grade ply will work. From what i've read, stay away from the luan ply at the big stores, it has inferior glue. I'm starting my own homemade pop up slide in camper for a short...

That ain't bad. When i was in the big bend, I traveled 45 miles each direction on washboard roads, just to work and back. I definitely have to explore that part of the country more.

You definitely have my vote for trip of the month! Forgive me for being a total newb:o... but after living in the Big Bend of Texas for a few years, i have a great desire to travel to the deserts of the west. This looks like a great trip. How many miles off pavement did you travel?

Wow, I might just try that myself. I've read in other places about the strengths of pop rivets vs welding, but was hesitant. If i go this route (i.e. slide in camper) I might just follow your lead. Enough hijacking....

SC Hot water shower. http://images.cabelas.com/is/image/cabelas/s7_512343_imageset_01?$main-Large$ You pump it up by hand like an old fire extinguisher. Simple, but effective. Their website has better info and prices.

Tom x2! I would very much like to know what construction technique you used. That's a great job. If you can do it, i'm sure it would be a popular thread. WV150 - I like the shower idea, I thought about using the same type setup. Except using one of those propane shower units you can get at...
