Sounds like fun. You could pick me up on your way past TX.

Indeed. Or bring powder, primer and bullets and keep up with the demand.

GREAT IDEA!!! Let's ALL go to Gunner's for a few weeks! Throw another shrimp on the barby.

Don't tell those people just up the road. They think they are the Trout Capitol.

You have to have seen their famous fish with the 10,000.00 paint job.

When were you last in Michigan?

I suspect that you bought all this stuff yourself. But then, that would make you a fairy, right?

Dad retired in...humm...98 or 99, flew back for his retirement party.

Ill just have to butcher another beef. Who wants to run the chainsaw? Works great for quartering up a cow.

Rubber suits are for sissies.

But with you guys..Ill have to draw straws to see who gets to head shoot it...or lay out in the pasture with the 4570 and do it the indian way.

Speak for yourself, Fairy. Gunner runs a home for wayward and unloved tools. People are always dropping stays off for him to nurse back to health, and find them new homes.

Barbeques are unnecessary in Taft in the summer. Just toss the meat on the top of your vehicle trunk or hood. It'll cook in no time.

You mean from the side of the road, with a million candlepower jacklight?

Or there is a different way used down there?

No, darnit, that's for deer! Cows they just shoot whenever they need one. No closed season.

Big enough group and Gunner won't have enough "stow away" pet stock to go around. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

Got Google Earth up but can't identify Gunnerland - what are his coordinates? Gerry :-)} London, Canada

Just look for a yard with old lathes and milling machines. ;-)

Didnt pay a cent for any of it. In fact, I couldnt afford to buy a set up like that.

Tool and cutter grinders are going the way of the dodo. Inserts are cheap, fast and consistant and thats the name of the game in production machine shops.

The fellow that gave this stuff to me, said he couldnt afford to have them in the shop, as it cost money for someone to make custom tooling or sharpen tools, that could be purchased right off the shelf in insert form.

And he is right.

Gunner

Nah..not for cows. They are stupid and stand up in the middle of the field during the daylight.

Drop one, chain up the hind legs to the backhoe or truck crane, and butcher it up with a chainsaw. Fast and easy, particularly if its someone elses cow.

The new cordless saws make it even simpler and quiter.

A couple thousand mexicans every year cant be wrong
