    Maybe I’m just lucky, in the last year or so every time I went to cabelas or gander I could have bought 22 rounds 8 out of 10 times. Maybe I should have bought a lottery ticket?? Was just at cabelas and gander on friday they both had some on the shelf

    Jumping on DaveB’s English lab (or some call them British labs…) idea…I do own one and could not be happier. I bought mine 5 years ago from Legend Gun Dogs in Dassel, Mn. If you have any questions on Brit’s shoot me a private message…Good luck! RR



    There is a huge diffeance between english and british. English tend to run on the larger size and typically are used for more of a show dog.
    That being said I have three british labs from Royalty british kennels. Give them a try you wont be disapointed. You get more than just a puppy from them.

    I got mine from northern flight retrievers. His name is butch Goodwin. Ema is 14 now a few years back I wanted another and reached out to him. It looks as though he has gone a different direction and is not breeding any more. Do some research and try to get contact info for him. If you can get his lines you will not be disappointed. I have since gone a different direction with british labs but if I were going to go back to chessies it would have to be his lines or a direct referral from him. There are some bad breeders out there. I got my first one from a local here around the cities. Although the dog lived to be 19 she was a mess. It was my fault for not doing my research. That person still sells to this date don’t no how. If you can find a way get ahold of butch and get a recommendation from him or try to find his lines. My info is 14 years old but could look up my paper work to see who was who if I could find it.
    Heres butchs site

    Looks like 2007 was last time he was breeding but there is some good info on there. Years ago I tried the e-mail and never got a response you could try it and see. Also his pedigree is on there so you can look at the lines

    I think there should be 3 valves one for left one for right and an up/down. A diagram will tell you which one is down/up. You should be able to find that on Meyers website. Concentrate on that valve and follow those wires

    between LaCrosse and Rochester in Minnesota..
    there are no cables to bend..none..



    Not close enough or I’d come look at it.
    I figured there were no cables as that was long ago.
    Take the coils off the valves clean those up. Then take the valve out clean those up. Look at vlaves for bad O-rings put it back together see if it works. should only be 1/2 hr job in a warm shop. Other wise it will be electrical. A partialy broken wire or severly corroded wire will not let enough current thru to open the valve all the way Not sure if meyer has a adjustable down or not if it does you could adjust that but why would that have just come out of adjustment. To me that wouldn’t make sense.

    down should have no draw on the battery. Plows do not have down pressure. When you hit down the motor does not run its just an electrical connection that opens a valve. either the valves are clogged or worn out. Clean all connections.

    When you say joystick I assume its not a hand held remote. How old is it. Im not real familiar with the brand but like I said before the concept is all the same. Staying stuck in the down position is your float option. 99% sure problem is in the plow.

    Take your valve assembley apart and clean them reinstall see if that helps

    We’ll just have to agree to disagree.
    Under a warranty situation Boss, western ect will use any excuse to not pay for a product that failed. Seen it been thru it just another way to make money off the public.

    Trans fluid does not work well in the cold weather that we have been having, gets to thick and is hard on pumps.



    i have 15 plows out front that says otherwise. When i would loose a hose in the middle of the night and ran out of “plow” fluid i used transfluid. Now i cary a quart or two of plow fluid but most of the time its transfluid. On top of that transfluid runs my live hydrolics on our spreaders.

    Stuck valve or electrical connection is my guess. Im not familiar with that brand but the basics are all the same.
    Also trans fluid will work just fine.

    Pleanty of buildable lots out there with your requirements. I’m in the NW metro and can find a lot with a phone call. Most lots around here wont stop me from building an extra garage as long as were not talking 12 thousand sq. foot lots. Out side the immediate metro shouldn’t be a problem. Those listings above should get you some where. Another thing you can do is find an area you want to be in and drive through you should be able to find some signs (Lots for sale) or try finding the developer.

    Nice video. Anyone know if the roof should be checked for damage after seeing hail that size?



    Doubtful. There were very little winds it looked to come straight down there. Hail that size would need strong winds to go with it. No winds hail needs to be golf ball size and solid. Some times you get mushy hail and don’t get damage either.

    how old is he now?? It may just be he doesn’t have the mental capability to handle it yet. He may just need to mature more before you go any further. Will he do it once or twice before he decides to go off and play??
    Like I said before try throwing it when he picks it up and looks at you if he does not come back turn around and walk away. If he presents you with an opportunity to grab the dummy do so. Otherwise show no interest in it and just keep walking as long as hes holding it and following you he has done the job he just doesn’t realize it. You can try the hiding technique as well just make sure he sees you hiding so he no’s where you are. Don’t necessary grab the dummy when he comes back just sit on the ground he will come to you. If at any time he looses interest stop for the day. The best is if he wants more and you quit.
    These are a few things that have worked for me in the past. If I were to just guess hes just not ready for the long retrieves several times, I would say hes just to young.

    Back-up. Put the pup back on a check cord. Id maybe start with a 20′-25′ then switch to a 50′. Throw the dummy obviously not past the leads reach. Soon as that pup picks the bumper start calling and pull him back in. If he comes back on his own that’s good no reason to pull. Soon as you get it back throw it and repeat. Maybe half dozen throws each time the first week. then switch to a longer chord. If all goes well by the end of the second week problem should be solved. Another trick you can try is when you go off leash and throw the bumper when he picks it up turn and walk away he will follow when he gets to you grab bumper and toss it don’t chase him to get it just coordinate it well. Another is to hide behind something like a trash can he’ll come to see what your doing. With all this don’t forget to praise after each so he realizes he’s doing it right.
    Start with those see if they help. Always remember if your having problems with training go back a step and always end with the pup wanting more.

    Need alot more info…

    What are you looking to have when finished?? A completly finished garage or a shell. How about electrical?? What materials cheap or quality?? Are you doing it yourself or hiring it out. What about site prep any fill needed??

    Stick frame or post frame. (this will vary in price if your finishing off the interior.) Post frame is cheaper to put up but ends up being more expensive if you finish it off. WIndows?? How many overhead doors?? one service door? insulated? 2×4 or 2×6 const

    At 25k 30 x 50 shouldnt be a problem if your doing most of it yourself

    Fill in some of the info and that will help

    I have a commercial grade mower. Hade it for 8 years now. Mow lots of hills. I mow about 5 acres but you better put a 1 in front of that 2 you have. Find a good used comercial mower, still gonna be over 2 grand but worth your while imo.

    I got a north star brand from either home depot or northern tool years ago. Around $300 and 3000 psi with a honda motor. Been used for work and home and many have borrowed it. Stick with the honda motor is my opinion

    My source says his company is putting out 7 million .22 lr a day in one factory and 8 million a day in another. That’s 15 million a day, from 1 company. How is that stuff not making it to the shelves?



    We were (Are) demo/remodiling federal cartrige. Both locations in anoka. The original one and the new building they have. I havent followed these threads that colse so it may have been posted already but from what I was told all ammo manufactures that deal with the govermant have to fullfill the govements orders before putting out to the public. The goverment has place high orders of ammo. I have herd that from 2 sources now. I would guess in the coming months we’ll see some ammo. Last i herd federal was 450 million behind in production running 24/7

    Is that including the nail guns??? They have pistons/cylinders – I didn’t think of that or compressors…



    Nope, forgot about those. I just did a quick add up of trucks, skids the big stuff. If I get down to the little stuff I’m sure we’d hit the 200-225 mark.
