  1. HI, I'm an electrician . 20 amp breaker requires a minimun of #12 AWG wire by Canadian electric code. For your safety i would stick to that code.
  2. Great pics as always. The truck pic gave me some new options. In need of some new waders but why I'll just back my truck into the water where ever i go. lol
  3. Pond is stocked was there today with my 6 yr old. I'm pretty sure signs around the pond say nothing about the use of bait, " catch and release, barbless hooks and a number to call if you catch a tagged fish.". Just about everyone uses bait there.
  4. 1 more in a long line of excellent videos Jay. Come on summer!!!!
  5. Geez, I should have read this first. Just tried to buy a new licence today at Shawnessey Canadiantire and got told i can't buy 1 until march 31 st when the other one expires. I was sure i bought mine last year somewhat before it expired and carried around 2 licences until the 1st one expired. Does anyone have the phone # for AlbertaRELM ? Thanks ,Jay
  6. Great vid as always. Had a good laugh at the wet wadders, wasn't near as funny when it was me last summer with wet wadders.
  7. Thanks I'll check these two out. Heard from another co-worker to try Statefarm. I got quoted $2000 a year for full coverage on a 2009 Victory Vegas. 23 yrs no accidents and 1 speeding ticket 6 yrs ago. $2000 a year is making me rethink my midlife crisis,lol
  8. HI, I got a quote yesterday for some bike insurance from my insurance broker and it was wow higher than i figured it would be. Not that i had a clue what the cost should be. She said she shopped it around to 5 different insurance companies. General rule of thumb bikes are expesive to insure???? or should i shop it around some more myself ? Any body got some names or bike insurance companies? thanks, to all that may reply
  9. All the above stuff and don't you have to have a spark arrestor too? But a helmet is a option i think still????? I would never let myself or my boys ride with out one but I've seen way too many kids without helmets.
  10. Chinese Proverbs Man going thru airport turnstile sideways is going to Bangkok. Foolishman give wife grand piano, wise man give wife upright organ. Man who scratch ass should not bite fingernails. Man who run in front of car get tired. Man who run behind car get exhausted. Baseball is wrong: man with four balls cannot walk. Panties not best thing on earth! but next to best thing on earth. Man who fight with wife all day get no piece at night. Crowded elevator smell different to midget. Man who fish in other man’s well often catch crabs. War does not determine who is right, war determine who is left.
  11. Alright who's using their tools correctly?? COMMON TOOLS DEFINED DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted vertical stabilser which you had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it. WIRE WHEEL: Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under the workbench with the speed of light. Also removes fingerprints and hard-earned calluses from fingers in about the time it takes you to say, "Oh *hit..." ELECTRIC HAND DRILL: Normally used for spinning pop rivets in their holes until you die of old age. SKILL SAW: A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short. PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood-blisters. BELT SANDER: An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-up jobs into major refinishing jobs. HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle. It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes. VISE-GRIPS: Generally used after pliers to completely round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. WELDING GLOVES: Heavy duty leather gloves used to prolong the conduction of intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub out of which you want to remove a bearing race. TABLE SAW: A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity. HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes, trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper. EIGHT-FOOT LONG YELLOW PINE 2X4: Used for levering an automobile upward off of a trapped hydraulic jack handle. E-Z OUT BOLT AND STUD EXTRACTOR: A tool ten times harder than any known drill bit that snaps neatly off in bolt holes thereby ending any possible future use. BAND SAW: A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to cut good aluminum sheet into smaller pieces that more easily fit into the trash can after you cut on the inside of the line instead of the outside edge. TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST: A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect. CRAFTSMAN 1/2 x 24-INCH SCREWDRIVER: A very large pry bar that inexplicably has an accurately machined screwdriver tip on the end opposite the handle. AVIATION METAL SNIPS: See hacksaw. PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids or for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads. STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER: A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into non-removable screws. PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part. HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to make hoses too short. HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit. MECHANIC'S KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents such as seats, vinyl records, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines , refund checks, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing work clothes, but only while in use. DAMMIT TOOL: Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage while yelling 'DAMMIT!' at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, the next tool that you will need.
  12. Hey maxwell, Heres the list of places Angelrs Ridge, Nestle Inn and Bedside Manor. I have never fished the Crow so pretty stoked until i look outside and I'm reminded it's winter. Thanks again
  13. Well my wife who doesn't like me fishing all the time, really surprised me for x-mas. She gave me a weekend pass to fish and some money for a bed and breakfast in southern Alberta. Wow no kids or wife for a weekend. She came up with a list of places to stay on or near the Crowsnest river with some help from somebody at Fishtales. She had nothing but great things to say about the service she recieved at there.Which are my thoughts too. Has anyone here used any of the bed and breafast's on or near the Crow river? Just looking for some feed back. Thanks to all that might reply
  14. Crowsnest, I wasn't saying there aren't bass here because i didn't know if there is or not. I guess i just worded it badly. I was just saying i don't know about bass in Alberta but there are bass in B.C.
  15. Hello, Bass do exist up here( as in Canada) maybe not in Alberta, but B.C. has bass.
  16. Mornin, Here is a site i have used for our family point and shoot camera purchases for the past few yrs to check out the reviews. They also have reviews on DSLR cameras. http://www.steves-digicams.com/
  17. They sure are tight to the banks, everything i caught was within 1-2 feet of the bank except one little guy 10' out. I usually go around 4:30 to 5 am for peace and quite. Finish my coffee and watch the sun rise then try slaying some of those fishes.
  18. I'm with Birchy, come with me for small fish or none at all. Found a lot of small fish today within 2-3 feet of the bank at Policeman's flats. Just head noth of the boat launch to the first slow water corner. Could see lots of big fish rising there also just out of my casting reach.
  19. Hi, I took the boot camp last spring and it was good. Still tons to learn that isn't taught in the course but a good starting point. The knot tying was redundant as i had met Troutlover and he took the time to show a lot of the knots before i went to the course. Thanks again Troutlover. I kinda wished i had taken the store credit on the rod and upgraded. As a year later I'm looking to get a better rod .
  20. Most shops will guarantee there repairs. I did the ones at mall a few yrs ago and month later cracked started at repair area and went the lenght of the window. Went back to the mall and he was long gone. I just got a new windshield and already got rock chip in it. So I'll be off to the windsheild place for repair. Part of my new warranty on my new windsheild is 3 free crack repairs.
  21. HI, My wife and i got married a few yrs ago at Rafter Six Ranch . It's on the way to Canmore a.b. It was one stop shopping, They have a beautiful log church there, minister included, banquet hall, hotel, cabins, food , drinks , horses and horse drawn wagons. Awesome secenry for pictures, food was out of this world and everybody has a blast at a western wedding.
  22. HI, Wanting to get a pontoon boat and know very little about them. I have read some of the past posts on them and still have questions. Would an 8' be okay for the Bow? Looking at a South Fork 8' 325lbs carrying capacity and i weigh 205 lbs which leaves 120 lbs for stuff. Would i be over loading it depending on my stuff? Anyone have a South Fork, pros, cons? Thanks
