Ya. Tim is the master of the obvious after the beans are spilled! ;)
I give....Why, Tim?
I hate the little buggers. I worked the whole gamut of chicken production including cleaning out the houses and spreading it in farmer's fields.
Washed water bottles, filled them every day. Set out feed. Set up brooders. took them down. set up feed conveyors. All the while counting the dead and noting what it looks like they died of. Caught the crazy things and shoved them into transport coops.
All this in houses up to 300 yards long.
I love me some fried chicken! :D
They are mean and peck each other to death.
The red light makes everything look like blood and doesn't draw their attention to the weak/wounded ones.
I dislike eating chicken.
Long story but even though we ate good all we had one winter was boiled old laying hens.
Boiled chicken this and pressure cooked chicken that.
Enough for a lifetime!
Yeah, the production chikuns were nasty compared to the ones My Uncle Robert raised.
Big, fat and healthy.
I was gifted a dozen bitties and raised them up proper. Gave them names.
Rode them around in a wheelbarrow. Pets.
Then came the day. They had to go to uncle Robert to slaughter and process them.
I could not go watch, but I sure did eat some fried chicken! :rofl2:
That is why I have and don't recommend giving your animals/insects names.
I just ordered about 40,000 bees yesterday.:shrug:
My wife was born and raised on a farm outside of Jacksonville, Illinois.
When we first got married we lived there for a while.
Part of the farm was the chicken operation.
Feeding, collecting eggs, shoveling chicken crap and slaughtering was all part of the deal.
Been there, done that, don't ever have to do it again. I still enjoy eating the little buggers though.

Did you hear about the [Insert your favorite derogatory term.] guy that lost his gum in the chicken coop?
It took him 4 tries to find it!
Hey Tim and Scott, you guys do anymore work with your cable Damascus?
For myself no. But I got a friend interested that has a two burner forge he built that will be better for welding.
When he saw my example and heard that I have about 3' to practice with his eyes lit up!
Here is my yard for now...

Brings to mind George Foreman. Named all his sons the same.
Think he had 5?
"Heretofore, all of Tim's bees shall bear his namesake and shall all be referred to as 'Tim'.
:)
I finally finished unloading my truck.....
So what that my burner and forge etc. sat in my backseat!:w
I have been checking out home grinder builds today. Maybe next year mine won't be the black sheep.
It was fun for me how much it was used and it shows that you can overbuild many things.
@charlie I am not going out to the garage in 38'f rain at the moment but I think I forgot to remove the 220 plug that was yours....
I will certainly make it up to you or maybe that will be a good reason to visit again.

Paco is a man's man. Forged and completed a knife, handle and all.
Wearing Crocs!

Truth be told. Victor did 90% of that knife because he did not want me to ----- it up. Also Scott attached the handle. So if you call shaping the handle and making the original blank a man's man then OK I am.
shhhhhh!
Just go with it, paco! ;)
What happens in Burkburnett, stays in Burkburnett!
Well not entirely, tons of pictures and videos, so only some of it stays in Burk.
Victor, kicked ass
