Nice Helicopter William -

So now that you have the pic posting problem solved, let's see a vid of you flying it! My nephew was really into RC and got into the heli's - I'm always in awe of you guys that can make them dance around in the air.

Thanks Hilltop! I will get video when I get it in the air. I dont make it dance in the air. I hate that 3d flying, myself. I think its amazing, and definitely amazing that a machine that delicate can move like that in the air, but I really think its nice to make it fly slow, smooth some rolls, loops .

Wild Bill: Those karts, midgets and sprints are insane! Thats some great dirt fun!

my hobbies are welding and restoring old military guns (just started actually). Hey Matt, you should go be a bush pilot in Alaska, that looks fun!

Look forward to the heli-vid William - Nothing wrong with "slow and steady wins the race" unless you're Wild Bill . . .

Great shots WBill! After seeing that pic of the driver's compartment on your car, I think I've been in some fighter cockpits that have more room!

It's really cool to see what all you are in too. I know that I am not alone in having more hobbies than money, and finding myself deciding between tractor parts, and other toys.

My boys and I like to shoot trap. We have a 20 gauge 870 Express youth model we use for that. Also target shooting with a 22 that has been in the family since my great grandfather bought it. I had it rebuilt last year. No pictures though.

My favorite hobby so far is driving and fixing up my 86 D100. Yeah, it's a plain jane slant 6, 4 speed base model, but I have a really deep love for it. THis is my 4th D series Dodge, and the last I will keep. Wish I had kept them all!

Now, amongst fixing it up, I am teaching my sons to drive it in. Nothing like an old truck to learn stick in!

Well the cubs are pretty much my main hobby, but when I need alone time and peace and quiet I hit the back mountain roads with my adventure/touring bike and enjoy the sights. Yes even my bike is Cub Yellow!!!

Default Tweaking Ruger 10-22's

I screwed up and bought Mark White's book on the Ruger 10-22! After about 10 builds I got pretty good at getting the trigger pull from 6-8 lb pull to a safe 2 1/2 lb. Refacing/head spacing,and jeweling(engine turn). From bench rifles to hunters. I chose the Ruger 10-22 because there is so many tricks and mod's you can do to this great little rimfire!

My other vice is my 1970 F350. It has a factory installed platform/stake body.


I have owned it for 5 years now. I don't really have the time or the money to restore it. I have been thinking about selling it. I listed it on CL and a truck forum, but there hasn't been much interest. I guess I am stuck with it for now.
It runs great and does most of my firewood hauling and other chores. I clean it up and take it to a couple cruise nights in the summer. I also do lots of work on the house inside and out. I started a kitchen renovation last month. Outside I keep the lawn nice and I like to build stone walls and other landscaping projects.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
