    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Thanks, I believe that with the evolution of building codes as they have done people will start turning to them. At one time they said to shove this much insulation in your walls for building codes for this area. They then said each time the new building codes came out to keep shoving more and...

    Plus this And you got something that lasts you til the end of time... I have a few of these, don't fill past the 5 gallon mark on the fuel pump at a gas station or you will get an unpleasant surprise when you open it up. It works so well if you don't get any gas on the outside and if you do...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    I didn’t take my FB page down and didn’t get any notifications of such unless it’s down and I’m not seeing it. We took a few day “vacation” and went 600 miles up the road to get hands on training with ICF’s in which now the wife can see what I’m talking about and how I will build it with her...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Well I hope no one minds I'm going to stack this right on top of everything else going on right now as it's stacking pretty high and leaning over ready to fall. Best man at my wedding, who with his wife we had as our family/neighbor up the road, had holidays together with and shared the joys of...

    Weight isn't the factor in this one, it's the fact it will fill up a trailer. Each block weighs around 10 to 12 lbs about 400 blocks I need. I can legally hold 24k on the trailer yet the GVW per manufacturers specs on the truck is 30k between truck, trailer and load. Thinking of getting a "corn...

    Coffee anyone ?

    Got a quote from a company 206 miles away to get ICF blocks to build my house, they quoted me about $10 a mile to deliver them. I can get a 40k lb dozer delivered for cheaper. Looks like I will be pulling my service bed off my truck to pull my own f_king trailer and get it myself. Was quoted $6k...

    Coffee anyone ?

    Since Easter is coming up I should let the local kids have an Easter hunt. Start with the young ones they can collect the eggs out of the Waddle Wattle Inn first thing in the morning, then as the day progresses on let the older kids go hunting for the rogue duck eggs, in the afternoon they can...

    P.S. Just cause you hand raised and fed them doesn't make a difference either.

    Pour-On Ivermec - Pigs

    Don't forget, the staples in the other leg too. Still healing from it on one leg there is a knot there now. Only takes one bite to the femural artery and you are done if you don't know what to do, you got 3 to 5 minutes to figure it or they will find what's left of your corpse. Combat experience...

    Coffee anyone ?

    Would be up at 0300 hrs typing on here, but an open floor plan makes that not possible. Woke up angry and unable to sleep, feels as things are going dark again in which I go silent never recovering fully after each time.

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Not yet, things are going sideways between business, upcoming court cases and trying to build a house that hit at once. Last year was the city I took down, this year it's the state and water well board. Printer is fired up and I'm building a case for round two through district court with...

    I mean I could say all I want how many goose eggs we have here, but damn. This doesn't include the 4 sitting on eggs of around 15 a piece. We still got 3 months to go of this.

    I will preach it now like I preach it to the wife, bicycle or swimming. My hip is so bad from war I can only swim, even the bicycle is out for me. Thought about a indoor swimming pool in the new house.... Wife likes to run, I use to pedal 100 plus miles a weekend and that's after pedaling all...
