the official OBS diesel off topic thread
There is another option, DIY GeoTehrmal, build your own for a fraction of the cost. borrow your uncles equipment or rent. I think Herr Dairys backhoe still works lol. but the tubing isn't much look up High-density polyethylene pipe, its only 3.40 a foot for 3/4", depending on the size geothermal unit can range from $2,000-$4,000 I don't know if you a 4 or 5 ton unit depends on the sq footage of the house.
Aaron, congrats on selling the old camper. That's what's been holding me back from getting one. The one's that don't need work are out of my price range and I don't need another project.
Bill, good to hear from you. I'm sorry the new job isn't working out. It really makes me angry when companies misrepresent jobs like that. It certainly isn't easy making the kind of move you want to make. I know in my area the economy seems to be doing pretty well. There are hiring signs all over. I have no doubt a capable guy like yourself could easily find a job here.
Yeah there is a great bunch of guys on this site. I was thinking about all the chit I've done for him over the last couple of years and wonder how much of a pickle he'll be in soon enough. Heck he uses my cattle trailer every time he has to take his beef to the sale(6-8 times a year), grabs a bag of milk replacer anytime he runs out over the weekend(more often than I'd like to count), I'm pretty sure more often than not it doesn't get replaced, same goes for calf tex, and then the use of some of my equipment. Not anymore buddy. I'm gonna laugh when the cattle hauler charges him 50 bucks a cow to haul them away cause he has to load out of the field lol. I also made a bill for the round baling. I'm not up for handing out anymore to him. Ok. I'm done lol.
Yeah. The guy has lived in the neighbourhood for like 30 years. He seems like the type that thinks he can do whatever he wants. I remember talking to another fella about him and I guess he went on jims property before sun up for duck hunting. At sun up Jim got a rude awakening from a 12 gauge about 100' from his house. Never asked permission. Never said hi. Just went in like he owned the place and set up. Jim went to the U.S. In the 60's or 70's and joined the marines. They never spoke after that day lol.
I also found out what one of my neighbour is made of as well. Wednesday I went and round baled 4 acres for him(a flat out pain in the a$$ for me) not that I do custom work for people but I did it as a favour, lent him a tractor with the grappler and a hay wagon so he could get the round bales off his field and sold a bit easier. Thursday I put a 2"x4" hole in his plywood shop door. Accidents happen. I told him when it stopped raining I would replace that sheet. Today it stopped raining and before I was done morning chores I was informed that if it wasn't repaired today he would get someone to fix it and send me the bill. Huh. Well imho next time he needs something he can bloody well pay someone to do it. I'm Not a big fan of that kind of attitude
Then either hung up or walked off depending on how the conversation was taking place.
Pfft I come on here to read up on the latest and this thread slipped to PAGE 2?!?! for shame guys.
Or perhaps there's enough actual threads that this isn't the main priority?! Weird.....
Anywho, for those not on FB... my company was cleanin' up shop and since I recently acquired a garage that has no storage or workbenches I decided to bring home a few things...
Have you ever thought to yourself, "maybe this isn't such a good idea?"

Glen, there are two gold torx bolts that usually come loose, if you look from underneath up towards the steering column
