    Don't underestimate old guy strength

    I won't disagree with that. But I haven't come across data to support it either. I have done crossfit or crossfit like activities for 10 years. I don't know anyone personally that has been significantly injured or needed surgery. There is risk with all physical activity and there is the large...

    DIY RokStok in maple

    I think the problem with milling with a drill press is they lack lateral rigidity. I think you could get by if you kept the spindle minimally extended and kept passes/lateral loading very light. You might even try a sanding drum used like a mill bit just to clean and true a bit. Sent from my...

    Don't underestimate old guy strength

    Yep. You know what sport has the highest injury rate? Running. Ever heard anyone talk about how PTs and Orthopedic surgeons love runners? Yea me neither. It's just a phrase that people love to parrot. Do people get hurt doing CF? Of course they do. I work in radiology. People get hurt doing...

    Don't underestimate old guy strength

    No one's hates on butterfly/skipping pull-ups, like guys that have never done them. They have their place. No they aren't a substitute for strict pull ups. But in a crossfit type workout, when you hit failure on strict pull-ups, you are pretty much done. Butterflies allow you to keep the...

    DIY RokStok in maple

    Nice work. Where you drilled the large holes to remove the bulk of the material, if you use a drill press you can overlap your holes easily. This leaves just a bit of material to clean up on the sides. If you don't have a drill press, I suppose that doesn't help. I was removing material...

    WTS Bushnell elite

    There is a guy on here that has been looking for a Bushnell elite for a long time. I've never seen someone bump a WTB thread so many times. He is persistent. I will give him that.

    Recommendations for stove jack for tent

    Bear paw designs is I believe the name of a company thay sells stove jacks for tents. It's bear paw something. I'm not sure if you can glue them to silnylon or not but you could get a sew shop to do it for a few bucks probably.

    DIY game bag material

    Yea it washes just fine. It may stain but that's it. @Felix40 was selling some on the side for a while. He can probably tell you what he was using. I've used his bags and ones that I have made. No issues. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Career Change Thoughts?

    Read on down to the bottom. I just started a new job that shaved a minimum of 580 hours of commute time off. That's the equivalent of 14.5 40 hour work weeks. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Career Change Thoughts?

    For 14 years I was treating kidney stones with a non invasive surgical procedure called extra corporeal shockwave lithotripsy. That involved me moving 2,000 pounds of equipment in and out of facilities every day, dealing with facilities, waiting on doctors, lots of wasted time, and constant...

    Career Change Thoughts?

    Man yall dug up an old thread! Coincidentally, last week was my first week at my new job. Since I created this thread, my old job just got progressively worse and I grew more and more unhappy. I finally got the nudge I needed when the company approached me and wanted to reduce my bonus...

    What Fletching glue are you all using.

    I have used loctite super glue for years. I prefer the professional one in the blue bottle. I have never had a single issue with it as long as the bottle hasn't been opened for a long time.

    Why am I always tired?

    For the guys talking about sleep apnea. Outside of being fat, i want to say the issue comes from the collapse of the soft tissue, which obstructs your airway and also causes snoring. I think i have heard people on podcasts talking about this being able to be improved/corrected by doing some kind...

    Why am I always tired?

    I feel you. 36 years old with 4 kids, 3 of which are 8 or under. I work long hours and an unpredictable schedule and I commute a minimum of 3 hours M-F, and have done so for 8 years. I try to lift and do cardio regularly. We had a garage with bath and laundry room built and I am doing all of the...

    Kuiu kutana vs attack

    Attacks are much to warm for most of my wear. Needs to be sub 50 or so for me to consider them. They have a slightly fleece like interior. Kutanas are awesome for me.
