Who would that be? Kids are long out of the house and have kids of their own and my better half is not sure what she dislikes more: computers or trucks. (disclaimer: she works almost full-time with PCs, is better than average in it, just doesn't like work with programs that don't work like...

Lovely. I would volunteer to work one of those on the Alaska Highway

Yes Yes, I would and did consider it, but unfortunately, that is a big It would go against the forum rules and the purchase agreement. I bought this one personally, with a clear agreement that it will not be published online or sold further. So I don't mind sharing it with individual...

OK Olga's brother got their meadows back in restitution, only it turned out the communists had built a small airfield for agriculture spraying partly on those meadows. That should be big enough for a C5A or C-17. From there, its only 12 miles to the workshop. Actually, I found my own truck in...

These front wheels look awfully small somehow, like pre-war tires

I'll be glad to host it in my son's blacksmith workshop in the forest, but getting your trucks here might be a whee bit of a problem. ⛴⛴:-D

I also used normal tools with force extenders before I had the wrench. But beware, sometimes between a stubborn nut and a long-enough lever to move the world, the tool becomes the weakest point, and if your lucky then you only will find yourself laying on the ground asking wtf just happened.

If you like working around the Deuce and cherish your own health, do yourself a favor, spend some extra $$ and buy a quality cordless impact wrench, maybe there are some discounts around, or .... After wrestling with nuts and bolts, and breaking some tools, I finally had the chance to...

A triple tie in first place followed by a triple tie in second place. We should avoid the Supreme Court here. More important, not trying to do politics here, did we already had a female winner for the MV of the Month? Let's break the next ceiling and give the deciding vote to mdmorganwife's...

You know why the Dutch used to be so good in languages? Because we had all TV in original language with subtitles. Weaning children on Donald Duck and Woody Woodpecker in English with Dutch subtitles and the situation very clear definitely helps children to get better in languages. In...

For big countries, yes. For us small counties, that's about the minimum what you learn, either in school or pick up. Actually, French and German are the two languages where translate.google.com does not make a complete BS story from your text.

Nice truck, I'll take it. Maybe it has been painted over into the blue already once, and the hood is showing the real color under it?

Katastrophenschutz, is that similar to the Zivilschutz? In the Netherlands we used to have the Bescherming Bevolking (BB, Civil Defence). This was a state organization parallel to the military aimed at protecting the civil population in times of war. War did not come, so later they were also...

Actually, the term comes from "ROBOTA", which is the obligatory work the peasants had to do a few days per year for the lord of the manor. This was part of the serfdom under feudalistic rule under the Hapsburg rule (Austro-Hungarian Monarchy). Until 1848, the peasants in the Monarchy were...

Coffey, my flight aversion, money and partner all say no, but , as you say, the rests all vote heavily in favor. I do now live in the country that invented the term Robot, but I would not describe myself as that rofl

Not wanting to insult anybody, but motivate them, maybe the theme of next year could be "old farts"? :wink::wink:

October would be better, but I am not sure if I would be able to make it anyway.

Do you have a very large (2x or 3x from 2019?) left?

Kenny, to be expected. We see the same with our traditional meetings in our blacksmith workshop (not MV related). After some years, it becomes too massive and a lot of the intimacy gets lost. :sad::sad: But we do :cry::cry::cry:
