  1. I Can defenently tell this works..... Even has a distinct Oder ......my thinking is.. This mix will need to be reapplied ... Due to moisture that will accumulate over night..... It looks like what 2,4 d amine does, but even weeds dosed with that will and do recover....it used to stunt un wanted growth to give wanted plants to get a good start... Then those wanted plants help keep weeds shaded out.
  2. Just got done spraying.... I hit a mound with what i had mixed... Yep... Looks like little brown curled up something.... Worked quick! I'm already seeing the growth wilt as well.... If th sun would dry it.... On the plants it would work even faster... I can say this to... Chip monk squirts are not a fan of that mix ether haha... Had 3 run right by me a short time after dosing that growth... I believe this mix might just be what I've been looking for, FOR a while .....now the test.... If it kills ivy WE ARE GOOD TO GO!! Some people have an over growth of kudzu..... I don't wont anything to do with that vine......it's kinda funny you can mention kudzu in casual convo... You get sime very odd looks from some farmers.... You've heard of the movie cocain bear ? Well kudzu grows like it's on drugs... Hate that stuff... It's great cattle feed, but incredibly hard to control....
  3. Thanks ! Much appreciated !! (High five) ! Can you Ball park a mix ratio ? Doesn't matter how strong it is.... I just need a killer recipe.
  4. Got one just like it...... I'm with jeep, you'll need a sledge with that one.... I'd go with wedges and a sledge if that razor sharp fiskars won't do it... And i have yet to strike a chunk with the fiskars that didnt try and split with the very 1st lick... The only wood I've not tried locally is elem...... I hav yet to find anything that will handle elm .... Minus the hydraulic splitter.
  5. Says 3 lbs salt.... It's dry enough to spray now, i think the rain will hold off till this drys on the leaves, but i don't know when it will show it's effect on the growth...I'm adding a twist... I'm going to keep this mix as hot as i can.... So two things i think should help the extreme amount of salt.. And scolding liquid... Now if i could just com up with a less toxic way to kill fire ants... I'm not using talstar p... Close to my home... Eventho it works great! If you didnt see the full mix, it's 3 lbs salt .... Doesn't say table or sea salt.. 1/2 cup on natural dish washing detergent, one gallon water, hot or cold is not mentioned .... But hot would be my guess as salt melts in hot quicker... Before and after pics coming soon. Edit: i might also mention this salt I'm using is hand crank ice cream maker salt.... Haha, it's taking a while to melt....
  6. Hey river ..... Here's one i found this morning.. According to the site this one kills everything (broad leaf, and etc) I'm looking for a natural way to kill ivy .... That stuff is very resilient...... But the problem is it climbs the trees... So what ever i use has to kill it but not the trees it's climbing .... Figured some of you guys migh find this stuff useful, but i wouldn't use it anywhere close to the garden plants, just finished getting my flow master 1002rs lubed with silicon grease but I'm going to Waite till this weather passes.... See how good this mix works. https://www.tipsbulletin.com/homemade-poison-ivy-killer/#salt-vinegar-soap-homemade-poison-ivy-killer
  7. It is..... I've talked about before who was a highered hand had a 69 camper specail..250 4x4 four speed devorsed transfer.. Looked exactly like that one ... But i can see from the pick that one has an updated frame.... If you look at these two pics, it's clearly on a defrent frame... Most likely. Box (closed in, n not the c-channel type.
  8. True classic..... If they would come down on price this one would be in my drive very very soon... But with a stick not auto.... One thing i noticed..... It's not a true ford 250.... 6 bolt padern at the hubs, a true 250 3/4 ton ford in those days had a full floating axle.... Although, those might be covers... What little is shown of the cab.... Looks very close to the original......devorsed transfer case... Just as the original, be super sweet if they do the square body chevy pickups, but i think it's ford only...... Can even seethe engine..... Lol ..... Sure beats those new toy trucks... With play time tinker toy diesels.

For some of us, if any of you ever youget that message... Send me a PM email, or text (for those that have my contact. information, big thanks to mark (Ialert.com site tech) for quick action.
  12. The 110 n 185 are atc models n the 125 is a trx ? (Don't know too much abou those models )
  13. I do have some cell numbers.... I thought forsure i had his, but after looking through my books I'll be danged if i can find it... I'm with you on those models... Can't say I ever saw but just a hand full come up to the LJ's shop, but we most of the time rolled them in being .... There was usally a very expensive custom Harley ... Or a few in for this and that... So no riding any atv utv or dirt bike any other type if a Harley was on the floor... But if my memory is right.... Yes they should role free.... You reckon shade would know ? Of corse he's missing again.... Sure he's into something... I hope its nothing to do with his tractor Lol! Paging @shadetree

    Ill be glad when you start posting those great telescope images again....
  15. I haven't looked into this much.... But it sure got my attention.... Is this real or a gag site ? That 250 ford is one my faves from ford..... I'll be keeping up with this site... Next up the ford mustang... And YES! I saw the price.... Sigh... https://www.velocityrestorations.com/velocity-signature-ford-f250/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIzPvHycCw_wIVDRGhCh0mxQfNEAEYASAAEgKgvvD_BwE
  16. Might add some apple cider viniger, and dawn.... But do not get it on the plants... If you add that to your mix... It also acts as a burn down for weeds, and grass.... Critters won't go anywhere close to that scent... Even some bothersome insects won't mess with it... You might also try and move in some garden spiders...they will stay all season, and there are not poisonous just look big and nasty.. And lady bugs will help with aphids .... For tobacco worms ? Best to pick those suckers off by hand.. Just make sure to smash them... The chemicals used for those .... You don't wont on your garden produce.

    All they forecasted for us was overcast.... Can't say i heard anything about a layer of smoke ...... But if it's not actually wild fires.. Or hazardous weather... I'm not too alarmed... It's just smoke... Just hope whatever is causing it isn't bad or life threatening ....
  18. Thanks for the update.... So besides the small mistake... It's held up good ? That's just what i wanted to hear.... Got me thinking more and more about updating when i can get this ever growing list thinned out...
  19. Jeep right off hand cmanningjr aka blue gloves.. But no one has seen him, last i heard was he's a tech of some sort at a medical facility in Cullman Alabama....that was years ago... He up and disappeared when the old forums went up in smoke..... Along with other great members....
  20. Interesting find jeep, disk brakes ?? Have you tried riding the back brake a tad just to see if that makes.... Drive line chatter due to slack might be whats going on.....or maybe try this to see if it's slack in the driveline .... When it you brake... Try adding some throttle to it at the same time to keep the driveline slack down little as possible ... If my idea seems kinda off, well ..... I got that -:;())$&@ gut bug going round (wish i knew where i was when i got tagged, cause someone would be getting an ear full, maybe even good couple hard licks with the Missouri white knuckle soup bone) dang thing is making me feel hazy.... Even kinda drunk.......anyways your post on that noise has my attention....
  21. Loading up that plate .... With forks eh ? Lol ...... Sigh... Got a plate full here too.... I'm not one for loosing things, so today misplaced my keys ... Located them just a few ago now supper...anyways not to derail ... So I'm off to grill!
  22. Haha! Jeep beat me to it, i thought about saying something last night, but figured nah jut grab the popcorn..... Rofl!
  23. Hm...... I'm going to put some Serous thought about this setup.... So far i really like it. Especially knowing the oil temp! Oil pressure comes to mind as well (hint hint !! )
