New front tyre "Golden Tyre GT333" to replace the Michlin AC10
never liked it.... knew it wasn't going to be any good when I bought it
but the guy gave a good deal on a AC10 front & rear..
AC10 rear is magic....

GT333 90/100/21.... it's big , real big...
can run at low pressure and still
keep the rim away from the rocks..

The 333 is good enough for Graham Jarvis so it might be OK for me...
mined you he could prob ride faster than most mortals with out any tyres...

I replaced these.


With this. Though I am keeping the one on the left above.

52" 14 drawer Craftsman. Went out for 1/4" fuel line, came back with a $1500 tool box. And no fuel line.

Also this for Mrs.C. and the Ural.

Fuel line is much cheaper.


I've been watching some tool organization vids on Youtube, and I've realized that drawer height and depth is what is preventing me from really straightening up the shop. I'm considering one of the larger HF boxes.

If you are considering the HF boxes, have a look at husky's offerings... my 66" box was cheaper than the HF 56" and has the added depth of being 24" deep instead of 19... plus you get the wood top and extra 10" of box... I feel the husky is better made as well... still made in china though just in case you wondered...LOL

The husky box I have is of chinese origin, but in my opinion, of much higher quality than the HF boxes...

I almost bought a Menards Masterforce 41" combo with a total of 19 drawers and a pullout work surface on the roller.
http://www.menards.com/main/tools-ha...30893444985095
But, Mrs. C wanted to stop in at a Sears Outlet to look at some appliances(My eyes glaze over when that happens)and the 52" was on clearance. It was love at first sight. Also, clearance being 55% off helped a lot.

If Mrs C has any questions on her Sears appliances ,mrs B can help .She needs your product numbers though as most of the numbers are different on this side of the Tax line .Of course ,when you come drop off that p.o.s. jeep ,you can bring mrs C ,who can help out mrs. B .

Mrs. C just wanted to look. She is in kitchen remodel mode again and that always worries me. I mean, I'm happy with a Coleman stove in my garage for coffee and stew. Gotta hose outside for water. What more do you need?

Yeah, but I draw the line at the water hose over the tree branch shower. The well water is a bit chilly.

Didn't buy it, was told to get it out of my mother in laws' shed.


After a carb clean and some lubing, it fired up and made short work of my brush pile. Noisy bugger, though.
