I likely come across as an extremely gruff impatient a-hole... Both on here and in real life.

My friends know me to be quite kind, loyal, and quite mild mannered most of the time.

I neither truly know or truly care what anyone else thinks of me.

We have a few bridges like this in the woods. None are only 2.
Dig in 24inches. Sill plates on each end. Three 8x8s laying on gravel parralel to the ditch. Four 8x8s on top running across the span. 3x12 lumber on top. Use bolts or large spikes to attach these cross boards... Which will also greatly increase the beam load capacity.

It will support 6k easy.

I would add significant blocking between the beams just to avoid any racking.



Edit: not an engineer. I had a german grandfather with a penchant for tasking his young and teen grandsons with constructing projects like these. In his words, an engineer is for when you care about material cost. We built a wooden bridge that was able to support a john deere 550 dozer routinely.

I believe the oldest of us was 16 at the time. :lol:

How can I get into "acrapping" stuff and make $400?
Does it require much of an investment?

I am intrigued....

Every time you get the urge to throw something away, pile it up behind the shop.

Listen to the wife bitch for three years, then put it all in a trailer and go scrap it :lol:

I had 3200 lbs of copper, lead, cast aluminium, and stainless.

That's a lot of bitching.

You ever once see a south louisiana fight end without other parties breaking it up?

I haven't.

I think he's trying to say the guy isn't man enough to handle a 12ga yet. Maybe. But either way, it's information.

I have a 28 that has the worst recoil out of any of the ones I own :lol:

Even worse than my crappy maverick 88s

I like this take

At the end of the day the big cornfed baws of north Louisiana have a large size and reach advantage.

The problem arises with their Baptist sensibilities and notions of fighting fair.

Boudreaux doesn't care about fair. And he certainly doesn't care about getting his arse kicked.

Definitely will tell you that BMI doesn't apply to him

Judging by those forearms and the fact you can see his abdominal wall through that fat cap, I'd strongly advise not telling him that to his face.

Or at the very least, have a head start.

After further review, traps too big, neck too wide. Zero chance of knocking that fellow out. Buy the baw a beer.

Pathetic

I've traditionally supported this stuff but I might be reversing course

The amount of people reeking of weed and smoking in public is just out of control. It's aging me and I'll start shouting at clouds soon.

Ibwas 100% on board with full legalization until some bag girl in colorado lectured me about plastic bags for 15 minutes while I was checking out.

In short, it's the devil's lettuce.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. Any time I have a .22 pointed at something, it's going to die.

Doesn'tatter how big it is. Doesn't matter if it's flying.

We used to have an armadillo problem. A cheap UTG red dot mounted on an m&p15-22 and I haven't seen one in two years. I have extirpated armadillos from my area.
