++ ATOT official NEF thread part IV ++

[Red Squirrel]

Found someone selling sea cans for around 2k + delivery. Not a big price difference between 20' and 40' so think I'd go with the 40'. They normally go for like 7k+. Very tempting... I asked to see where they come from, since user's profile shows he's in Brampton... if it's coming from there the shipping will probably be more than the cost of the container itself. But if I can get it here for say, <4k all in, that's a steal. Will be much better than my tarp shelter idea for the ATV, tools, etc... I'll still do the tarp shelter but only for firewood.

Was getting weird vibes from the containers and decided not to go for it. Checked his profile and he has listings in all sorts of different towns. He's not even from here. The container would be coming from Etiboke, so the trucking cost on that would not be worth it even if it's legit.

The mines should have used containers for sale no?

Have not seen any although I have not really looked extensively. Just ran across this listing by chance.

I imagine they buy stuff in container loads. Ask your miner cousin to find out.

I think most stuff shows up on flat bed trucks. Although I'm sure they might have containers but whether or not they sell them is another story. There is a company here that specializes in that, but they don't disclose pricing, so they're probably super expensive.

Here I am in 1992 at the age of 25 in the Navy. We're down in GTMO doing training. Here we're at general quarters doing Chemical, Biological and Nuclear drills off the coast of Cuba. My station for general quarters was in medical as a sound powered phone talker. The skin of the ship is sealed and ventilation is shut off. It gets pretty hot in the Caribbean with no ventilation. They're probably about to do testing of the CIWS. You don't want to be outside when they're shooting those things off. It's like 3,000 rounds of minute a plutonium tipped 20mm ammunition.

That c-wiz is awesomeness incarnate. In one recent docu they said it's or at least could be made autonomous.

Not something you want a terminator to have.

The Houthis have to be insane to take on a ship with even one of those on it.

Nice shot you ginger

edit - mom was more auburn and dad was blonde. So how the f*** did I end up with brown, vaguely copper colored hair? I was robbed, robbed I say.

 

[Charmonium]

Curmudgeon - it's not just word, it's a lifestyle.

I didn't choose to be a curmudgeon. It just sorta snuck up on me.

I got my grandfather's hair. It skipped a generation. I miss my auburn hair.

If you're not worried about theft, have a party tent that has been up for most of the year. It's just a roof with stubby side panels that go about 2 feet down from the roof. With all of the trees there, I would guess that wind shouldn't be an issue. Then some cheap burlap should be "good enough" cover for whatever you park there.

Minoxidil works really well for me but I think that's closer to the exception than than rule. It can take up to 6 months I think - to kick in. It seems to work best on the front of the scalp but that just based on random observations.

Theft worries me a bit but I don't think it will be an issue there, so probably just go with the tent shelter, which was my original plan anyway. I'll use some cinder blocks and rope to tie it down. Wind is very bad here at times. The biggest target might be the ATV and I will chain it to a rock and maybe take one of the wheels off and bring it home. Going to be nice to get the ATV out there so I can use it, and also get it out of my garage at home to make space.

Next year I'll start on an actual shed/garage build then I can make it more secure. Even a container, if someone really wants in they'll have it open with a torch in about 5 minutes. All I can really do is try to mitigate it as much as I can by making stuff less visible, which I can do now that I have an area cleared. When driving by it's not that obvious that there is a property there. I will eventually plant more trees/shrubs around the entrance as well to hide it a bit more.

I still have my red hair but it's definitely changed over the years when I compare pics of when I was younger. I'm starting to get a bit of white in my beard though. Getting old.

I was talking about the hair color and not hair loss. I have some hair loss (hair thinning), but not massive hair loss (chrome dome).

 

[Charmonium]

@bigboxes - I actually had thought of that.
