    Finally a pleasant day!

    Yesterday (and today) were absolutely beautiful here. Mid to Upper 70's and Sunny. It has been raining for like a week. The girlfriend and I decided to take a stroll down by the river for a picnic. There must have been half a dozen kids fishing along the banks of the "Mill Pond" where then...

    1962 5.5hp Evinrude

    Hey Guys, As some of you know I have recently restored this motor. When I got it from my uncle a few years ago, he insisted the carb was clean because he went through it. I could run this motor in a bucket, but always had to be adjusting the mixture nobs and the choke to keep it running. I...

    2005 49cc motor

    I have a 2005 49cc scooter, the motor of which I think may be a Yamaha. If it isnt, it is very similar. The guy I bought it from was using TCW III 2 stroke oil, which isnt what I want to run.(it isnt synthetic) I have put maybe 100 or so miles on it now, and want to switch to something 100%...

    Hummingbird 525

    I just bought the Hummingbird 525 from the local Cablas store. Has anyone used one, or had good expiriences with it? I bought it figuring it is a pretty baseline model without the bells and whistles that are useless to me. Does anyone have the speed attachment?, and does anyone think the $35...

    1987 Alumacraft Remodel

    After much thought, I decided that I would try to add a deck and raised pedastal to my alumacraft. I did some testing last summer with the boats COG and decided it could easily handle this. The pedastal is only 10 inches higher than before. The seat itself wont be used when the boat is under...

    Harmony Remote

    Anyone have one? I bought one about a month ago, and absolutely love it. It was surprisingly easy to set up, and it is great controling all my A/V equipment with one button. My main question is.....does anyone else who owns one notice that the "glow" feature of the remote turns on via...

    A blonde calls her boyfriend and says, "Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle and I can't figure out how to get it started." Her boyfriend asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?" The blonde says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a tiger." So...

    Boys and Girls Club (my expirience)

    Today at work I had one of those "feel good" moments that really make it seem like you made a difference. I deal in consumer electronics, so that isnt easy to do. Nothing in the store is a "necessity", you can live without everything in the store. Today one of the people who runs the Boys and...

    Decking a 14ft alumacraft?

    Ok, so one of the things I would like to do this spring is make a plywood deck across the front 3rd and 4th seats on the alumacraft (the benches), and then put the front swivel seat on a pedastal. This would move the front seat up about 3-4" from where it is now, nad also give the person in...
