If they go down that route, they need to switch over to "A" for Attack, "B" for bomber, "F" for fighter, "P" for pursuit, etc. However, 300 (as in 300 Spartans) must be kept. - Max Charleston SC On Fri, Feb 2, 2018 at 12:09 PM, Curley McLain via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrot

Re: [MBZ] OT - lights for the shop/hangar

I made my kitchen light fixtures for these kinds of LED lights. http://www.dx.com/p/gu10-5w-600lm-3000k-5-led-warm-white-light-bulb-silver-white-ac-85-265v-274579 I bought a bunch of the sockets and built fixtures then wired them up, pretty cheap and the things put out VERY bright light.  I use

SWMBO has a really nice cast iron pan, pretty much follows those directions. Nice to have a vent hood with outside discharge. I clean the pan with rock salt scrub when done, re-oil it and bag it and back on the shelf for next time. Couple days ago she made some nice lamb that way, VERY tasty. -

HA!We're going out tomorrow to run the Pisten Bully over the ice thats gotten on the trail in order to, hopefully, smash it up so we might be able to groom next week if it snows a bunch more. When we had out January thaw they had to close Birch Hill dam which got up to 19' of water and flooded m

I noticed the other day they are down to like $20 each.  I bought 4 or 5 back when they were $25 so I am thinking a couple more might be on tap.  I saw LED tubes to replace the glass fluorescent tubes.  They also have 100W LED bulbs I put in the bulb lights that come on with the switch (I have

My daughtter did a semester in Granada, Spain and lived in an apartment with 3 or 4 other girls,  Their hot water was heated by propane, with a tank under the sink cabinet.  They'd run out like every week and of course collecting money from them all was a challenge, so they mostly went without

Re: [MBZ] OT: Air fryers

Same here - we put up a roof over the patio with the grill under it, so now grill year round. The grill takes longer to get hot, so give it time (less propane flowing at cold temps). In fact, we will be smoking a turkey and some ribs tomorrow. On Fri, Feb 2, 2018 at 10:47 AM, Dwight Giles via Merc

Re: [MBZ] OT: Grilling in cold weather

A 20# propane tank should be good down to about -20F, after that things get iffy, or so I'm told anyway, we don't get that cold here really. Which reminds me of something, how do folks in metric countries refer to their propane tanks? Buy weight or volume or other? -Curt On Friday, Februar

Re: [MBZ] Dark Olive Green W115 280C on BAT

I’ve seen more on this car than the auction shows, as a potential buyer gave me the seller’s info and we did a conference call on it earlier this week. It’s a very solid example of the model, and while I’m no fan of the M110 engine, it’s an honest car and appears to have been well maintained. I
