What would you buy?
Comments (8)Thank you again. I went to a local JD dealer yesterday (shopping around) and he had a used (can't remember the model will check) unit with mower deck, full hard cab with glass window and a snowblower which is coming off to be attached to a new unit for trade in. Would need to add rear PTO for tilling. The unit has 292 hrs on it and "looks" to be in good condition. I will check on model and more particulars Monday or Tues., and put info here if you wish to offer your thoughts, (for which I would be grateful). I also need to get an ATV (2 miles to the mailbox on dirt road making a 4 mile round trip) and want to keep all costs to a reasonable level. I am not the Bank of America , so cost is a consideration. Would be nice to have a side by side 2 place 4WD ATV with dump box to recover deer and elk next season, plus to use on the mountain trails behind the property with the lady who insists on sharing my life. I'm too old to try running the trails like when I was a kid, besides the area has lots of mountain lions and imported Arctic 200 lb. wolves and the .454 Casull throws my balance off. Am considering Polaris but might consider the JD Gator if I can work a bundle. Here in Indiana I pay 7% sales tax plus transportation to Montana where there is no sales tax...(don't all line up at the border guys). There is a smaller selection of dealers in Montana though, with lots of miles between them, so ground work is done here with the possibility of a purchase if a good unit is available....See Morewhat would you buy, cherub or santa rosa?
Comments (15)Suzie if you ever want to just fool a round a bit with hybridizing in the future you should go with Sanata Rosa. Santa Rosa is a brug by JT sessions and is a hardy brug. It's a pod sister to one of my all time favorite brus which is Velvet Rose. The cross of Santa Rosa is Pink Beauty x Ecuador Pink. Both of these brugs have a great reputation for heavy flushes and durability. Cherub which is Parks Seeds big secret. They never disclosed what was crossed to make this brug. The parentage remains to this day, according to the databases i have checked remains "unknown"...so, to answer your question it seems like both brugs will give lots of flowers but only one of them has a background worthy of trying to cross one day if you ever get the bug....Santa Rosa...See MoreRefrigerator....what would you buy?
Comments (25)I bought a French door Samsung refrigerator about three years ago. The deli tray sold me on this fridge and it was also highly rated through JD Power. The only problem we had was a plastic part that fell off from the ice maker. I got online and ordered the part for about $20.00. I took the bottom freezer door off but realized I could not insert the part without getting up inside and behind the freezer area.. I was able to do this and replace the part. If a repairman had to do this it would have cost plenty since I am small and able to fit into the freezer area. Overall, I love this refrigerator and would buy another one in a minute....See MoreIf you were buying new kitchen ventilation.. what would you buy?
Comments (12)A brief repeat of the basics: The hood should overhang the cooking zone such that a 45-degree expanding cone from each pot, wok, or pan is intercepted by the hood. The flow rate (corrected for pressure losses) should be at least the aperture area (square feet) of the hood times 3 feet per second times some guess factor ( less than 1.0 ) that accounts for baffle effectiveness in increasing air velocity in the baffles close vicinity and for interior hood shape. Conservatism in performance would assume the factor is one, while conservatism in price and visual obtrusiveness would hope for 0.5, perhaps. Actual flow rate for typical installations may be only 2/3 that for which the blower is rated at zero static pressure, even with an active make-up air system. Duct size at full power should allow the air velocity to be 500 to 1500 feet per minute depending on, respectively, whether the ducting is in a warm environment or cold environment. Make-up air always equals what gets out through the hood. The goal is to supply this without drawing it from wall switch covers, window seal leakage, and backdrafting of furnaces, hot water heaters, and fireplaces. For high flows this requires a system that is at a minimum passive, and at a maximum uses PID control to keep the house pressure constant at a very small negative pressure independent of fan speed or use of other fans, appliances, and fireplaces. Although my hood is a Wolf, made by Independent, there have been several kudosi given to ModernAire on this forum, who will be happy to build a tailor-made configuration. An external blower and intermediate silencer will minimize kitchen noise. kas...See More- 10 years agolast modified: 10 years ago
