    Interesting video on fungus...

    Thanks for the heads up. I am a mycophile on the food front and it was interesting to learn about other angles. Chanterelle is one of my favorite late summer crops here in Western NC. You can easily grow several delicious non-native mushrooms on logs in your backyard if the micro climate is...

    Help me wire this pump motor. Solved, 220 3ph

    Cool. Simplest solution if you already have 3 phase. You need capacitors if you want to hook it up to 220 single phase. Either this way: Or with an additional starting capacitor. The switch between V1 and V2 is for starting.

    What makes a good "defensive" levergun?

    Can you post a pic of one of these shotshells next to a regular .44mag? I don't get how the Krag case would offer benefits over the .44mag case unless you trim the Krag to COAL. But then, you would have to neck it.

    Not a coincidence but a consequence of Democrats running HI since God knows when. And don't count on that changing anytime soon. 'Responsibility' and 'unintended consequences' are terms that are just too old fashioned for progressives.

    What makes a good "defensive" levergun?

    I was just thinking about the major lever gun drawbacks, limited ammo capacity and slow reloads, when it occurred to me that your could easily beat a tactical lever gun with a shotty flinging sabot slugs out of a rifled barrel. Back when 3 gun was popular, even amateurs could feed their shotty...

    What makes a good "defensive" levergun?

    Lever gun pros: The best rifle format for a scabbard on a horse. Nothing else packs as well. I am not talking about a few hours on horseback but horse packing for days. Lever gun with tube mag cons: Limited capacity Special bullets needed to prevent ammo detonation in mag Limited ballistics...

    Help me wire this pump motor. Solved, 220 3ph

    I also came across some older diagrams that use the z2/w2 - u2 - v2 and u1 - v1- z1/w1 terminal labeling to connect the windings to single phase line, a run capacitor and a start capacitor. I amend my earlier recommendation and suggest that you try single phase with the two capacitors first.

    DeSantis calls Trump supporters 'Listless vessels'

    An excellent comment from another SH thread (click the link to read the arguments): https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/brandon-herrera-is-running-for-congress.7184241/post-11068668

    Help me wire this pump motor. Solved, 220 3ph

    The motor has the letters U V W on the terminal block which indicates that it is 3-phase. Since you have 3-phase available, hook the motor up to that via a 3-phase starter box which you can get for about $100. You can also use a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) drive to run it with 220 single...

    DeSantis calls Trump supporters 'Listless vessels'

    What the fuck does it matter at this point whether it was fraud or successful propaganda or a combination of both that got Brandon in the Whitehouse. They got their man in there and they will do it again because nothing has changed to prevent fraud and the "Orange Man Bad" propaganda has been...

    Who thinks a quad bike (ATV) is a good prep as a patrol or bug out vehicle?

    I have a dual sport bike, 4x4 quad, 4x4 mini truck with factory lockers, XJ overlander, and CUCV overlander. If I had to pick only one vehicle, it would be the 4x4 mini truck. Road legal and practical (picked up a stack of solar panels 120 miles away), goes anywhere the quad goes (with similar...

    DeSantis calls Trump supporters 'Listless vessels'

    I think we should ignore the Republicant's primary circus and all vote for Newsom in 2014. Early and often, like any good democrat. Let's help them to drive this bitch over the cliff. Just make sure that you have a parachute i.e. long term self-reliance resources within you family and community...

    Two caveats: 1) Do not attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. 2) The fact that vultures are picking a carcass clean does not necessarily mean that they were the cause of death. There is plenty of provable corruption and malice in this world. Let's focus on...

    Diesel DPF Filters - Diesel Particulate Filters

    Second that. The days when a diesel engine was a valid premium option to get more grunt and reliability in a medium duty truck are OVER. If you want new, pick a gasser until you get deep into CDL B or A territory.

    Yes, I wish Trump would be so smart and unselfish to draw all the flack he can on him as the expected presidential candidate and then -in the eleventh hour- withdraw his candidacy and throw all his weight and followers behind another candidate that the left did not rake through the mud. As far...

    They animal control chick is annoying and not the sharpest tool in the shed but I have to take her side. Leaving a dog in a small box without water for an hour while he gets dinner and a smoke is just trailer trash selfishness. Getting in self-righteous arguments with the citing officer without...
