You can find adaptors to allow you to use regular tanks on small canister threaded connectors.

Is it a carbide for masonry, or a specialty carbide bit for hard metals? I'd try a nice new cobalt drill bit.

Warped and bent rotors may appear the same, but the causes are different. One is twisted from heat and the other is bent by an external force. I have never warped one, to my knowledge, but I have...

We picked up a like new Weber Q100 at a garage sale a couple of years ago. It sees occasional usage like you are planning and it has worked well.

I only take the bike in for something warrantee or suspension oriented. And I pay their wage instead of giving them shit beer. I have not been real impressed with many shop tech for my bikes or...

The factory silencer on a saw might have one baffle, if that. They are designed to get the exhaust out yet they muffle by the end diameter restriction. If you want a quieter saw, you will have to...

We might catch up soon streaming 2-3 episodes a night. No more spoilers please

Crap, we are streaming that every night, and you just let the cat out of the bag for us!

I got caught in a big one, but stopped myself. My friend got caught and hurt. This changed how I ski in the backcountry in a big way. Here is an old writeup...

I got a 97 580 powder special as my first sled. I had a little trouble getting the clutches tuned, but the sled's motor was really reliable. I used it for a few years, gave it to a buddy, and he...

The waterfall trail is pretty nice on a mtn bike. The only negative is the couple of miles of sand wash at the end. You can finish it as a loop back to your car by using some jeep roads on the way...

I know that my full faced moto helmets have torqued my neck pretty hard on a couple of belly flops (dirtbiking, not skiing). I do not know if they saved my face or not.

I clicked on this thread hoping for some new observations perhaps. Newest comments are 2+ years old. Could this be un-stickied?

I am going with the opposite theory. The rear tip has a spoiler effect, pressing the rear edges into the snow, helping your carve. You need to be going really, really fast though

I am in the Aspen area, and am non-union. I do a bit of side work, but we have a one month old and I am pretty tied up now. Thanks for the recommendation though

I only had a leak once. In the days of skins with tip stretchy things, I fell on my back once yanking my skins with the skis still on. The hose blew off the bladder and soaked everything. More a...

Any problem with edge retention after cutting them?

Movement at the hitch is not an issue. I used to worry about it with my moto and mtn bike hitch carriers, but a little slop seems to take some strain out of the system when you hit a pothole or...

I have a de-attached three car garage with 2x4 walls and 2x10(12?) joists. It was so cold in it that I could not do anything out there in the winter. I insulated it with a friendly to use plastic...

I have a friend who bought a diesel out of a wrecked toyota Hilux. The motor was shipped to Seattle and installed in a 3rd generation 4runner. It bolted right in and transformed that vehicle. ...

The smell is not that strange. They smell like smelly feet after a few long outings or after working in them for a while.

I put airbags in the back of my 99 4runner. I air them up more seasonally when I carry my dirtbike on the rear hitch or load up the vehicle when camping. The tongue weight of the trailer with sled...

I remember skiing on some wooden "Jet" skis around then with all metal marker rotomats and leather boots with narrow buckles which hurt my hands to close. The next upgrade was to Volkl Tigers and...

We are having a kid, probably this week, but no toys to speak of yet.

When are you coming out? I can probably ask around and see if my friends with children still have that stuff.

Check out the Atomic wayfarer 130 in this write up in Wildsnow. It is the boot I am most curious about right now. It might be for next season though....

I once had a factory rim which had a nipple rattling around in it. I never bothered to pull it out, as it only fell to the low point at really slow speeds.

I might be interested in it. I am nearly 6'-5", and I have no aspirations to be a big jumper at 46 years old. I mostly cross country ride and get small airs or ride rough trails. If I want to...

I carry stainless steel ones in my dirtbike pack. Also, if you use plastic ones, use the ones with a steel barb, not the plastic ratchets.

When I post in a thread and TGR sends me an email update about newer posts I click on the message in my email and it links me to the thread. The problem is that is does not link me to the posted...

3/16" with inert gas is probably more than a 120v unit can handle, but I do not have much experience with gas.

I have a Lincoln 140...

Get a sharp punch and tap it into the broken off tip in an opposite direction to the one you were going when it snapped (drive it clockwise). That might un-cam the broken part enough for it to fall...

I could easily be wrong, but isn't the Aggressor just a Dobermann with the offset sole?

I'd get a pair if I was not on Dynafits now. It would work for a side country setup for me. Almost 20 years ago I modified an Emery binding with a high DIN MRR heel and had a similar setup. It...

I'd like to see a photo of them retracted. They look like brush catchers

You see them all the time. The arm of the toe pinchers of Dynafits are forged steel. The aluminum base of the radicals are forged. Forgings are stronger than CNC machined bar stock. All true...

You ever flex a beer can back and forth? Same thing here. Your all aluminum binders could be fatiguing (total guess). Forged steel still kicks ass in some applications

As I mentioned earlier, I had a compartment syndrome in '89 and had the facia cut on both sides of my leg. The damage is not only from nerve compression. The high pressure in the muscle compartment...

On my snowmobile, My hands get uncomfortably hot when I turn on the heaters. You would not have a stator cranking out a couple of hundred watts, so I would not expect any pole heater to get as hot,...

You could try something like this http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/heat-demon-heated-grip-kit-with-metal-switch?utm_source=product&kwd=&adtype=pla&kw=%7Bkeyword%7D&gclid=CJX7jfWBrLUCFYs7MgodNyYA5w...

I'd be tempted, but we don't get powder anymore in Colorado

I'd go to a second hand sports shop and look for some spoiler in another boot which can be bolted to your Titans. Perhaps some tech here would have an answer about a particular spoiler.

I have...

I had a tib/fib fracture in 1989 at A-basin. 10.5 hours after the accident, I was wheeled into surgery at a Boulder hospital since I was a CU student there. Eight surgeries and one stainless rod...

I have never cross threaded one either. I can see how it would happen easily though.

It is really easy to tear the ligaments in the thumb. If you put your hand down holding a pole, the thumb is an exposed digit all by itself which is easy to catch on the snow. I tore mine when I...

I have found that if you rotate the screw cover counter clockwise when it is out, you can feel when the thread ends pass each other. At that point, eyeball the cover screw square to the binding and...

good point. The slide started at my feet, leaving me standing there while it slid away with a hissing sound.

The one time I was involved in a slide involving a traverse across a suspect slope, I tried to follow in the track before me. As soon as I stepped into the track, the slope below me slid. I have no...

This is true. I peg my Dynafits at 12, which is not very high for a guy my size. They are easy to rotate, but not as easy as my wife's at setting 4.5

sorry for not answering your questions. My friend's foot size is a couple of sizes below my 28.5 if I had to guess. I am guessing they are somewhere in the 305-315 range.

As far as the Big...
