  16. Lucky boy you are. Standing on a old wiggely chair running a dull saw with a loaded shot gun leaning right towards you. You better put that in your book and have pictures. Lol lucky

  17. Can you use a snomoble to get to your cabin. Saves time and leg work. I got a good one if your interested . its got 200 miles on new motor a 440 two up with a hitch polaris
    3
  18. Oak stump would of bèen nice to use or tamirac. But it will work.
    3
  19. I just got done eating a bear loin. Just one side of it. It's way better then deer. It's a lottery about once every 4 years for me. Unless your lucky my big bear went 458 lbs and 7.5 from nose to tail. He was on my land all summer and 2 miles away come season. He got shot by someone else. Mine was 200 lbs way better eating thou. It was great. 4 meals off oneside..make a good bait and bear will show up. Take off all the fat asap. You have about 3.5 hours after the shot in warm temps
    3
  20. But after 12 feet a year and 7 months it does get old.
    3
  21. Listen to that great advise. Thanks for sharing. Sorry bout your eye. Safety first
    3
  22. Congratulations on your sale on your cabin by me. You did well on that deal. Good for you.
    3
  23. Build with 2x6 walls. If you build on skids or piers use 2 inch certafoam to insulation around your cabin. Then bank it with snow. Floors will be warmer. Use bobble foil under your floor. Put l.p. gas and wood heat. I did mine and it all works well and is warm
    3
  24. It would be full of mice in 1 summer
    3
  25. Its nice but very spendy. My 100 dollar window unit works for me. If its to home I'll stay home at note it gets down to 45/55 that's cool enough for me. During the 90 degree day I jump in the lake and sit in the shade.up north we really don't need air. Open windows at night and shut them by 6 am house stays very cool that way for me
    3
  26. What a great trip you 3 had. Good thing it wasn't Monday Tuesday of this week. 3 inches of rain and high winds in babbitt.
    3
  27. When i did my shitter. I had to buy a permit. And theres rules. I needed a new plastic 55 gal barrel open top and no holes in the rest of it. And yes a man came to inspect it b4 i could use it and they check it out good for holes. Check with your county rules or theyll make you take it out. They are funny about shitters and why i dont know. But check the rules out

    2
  30.  @outlawwill5483  he's doing very well
    2
  31. I tryed a sand point at my cabin all over. Get down 5.5 feet and its solid rock. Which is OK also. Well driller said its cheaper to drill rock then sand and boulders. About 3500 for up to 80 feet hope we hit it in 30 or less for a good hand pump well is what I'm after
    2
  32. Can't believe your selling your little cabin. I see it's pending. Sell one dream to pay for another I guess .good luck on ur new home bìuld
    2
  33. You should of looked at my wheeler it's a 2007 650 2 up 4x4 low miles new tires. Never been beat on or driven in a swamp or high water. Trail rides and dragging deer only. You both could ride in comfort.
    2
  34. Be careful on your tree dropping. I knew a logger young and took chances. He sits in a wheel chair now and that happend 30 years ago. Life is great but dont take bad chances. Or youll lose it all. You may want to replace your rusted stove pipe b4 winter. If it rusts out it will burn you down.
    2
  35. I think i got 4 chains for 15 inch tires if you need them
    2
  36.  @curcapsicum  move on out south it's way better all around
    2
  37. You could of got Kyle's cabin in the woods on 40 acres he just sold it
    2
  38. When I built my home. The power company wanted 5 grand to run a few polls to give me power. I said nope. You run it to me for free and I'll buy your power. Or I'll go all solar. And they put it in for free. So I had power for 12 years B4 I sold out and moved to babbitt now. I'm off the farm. Critters are fun and good eats
    2
  39. Id get 4 or 5 cows. Bears and wolves like beef also. Youll be babysitting the beef
    2
  40. It's a good life up north. My wife grew up by ely. When I retired we moved to babbitt. I've had a cabin up in the woods since 2004. I love it
    2
  41. Fox.coyote. or wolf or moose. Skeeter ain't having it. Good boy he is. A keeper
    2

    2
  46. Go gravel pea rock or home sawed plank. It's small so it's cheap. 3 inch plank
    2
  47. How far are you from babbitt. I got a water fix for ya.
    2
  48. Check in ely for a small l.p.gas freezer. You may want to learn how to can your meat. It's ez and the best way for eating meat and having meat. Skip the sheep. Get good meat goats.4 of them. Way better eating then deer. If you don't want them all. I'd buy 1or2 from ya in Nov or late fall.
    2
  49. Hey you gotta take breaks and hunt. Its a must. Lots of birds this year so far.
    2
  50. I think about his tree falling he does. But smaller trees u can get away with it.but big ones probly not
    2
  51.  @sandiearmagost2914  shower with a friend and take turns dumping the water and wash your backside.
    2
  52. Leave your heater in your house. I have a new in box wall heater just like yours. Never been used. It was 390 new. For 200 it's yours. Then your covers both ways
    2
  53. How far from babbitt mn
    2
  54.  @_-Sweets-_  what part of mn
    2
  55. ? Of the day. How come you just don't put a tarp over your panels. Then just peel the tarp off. No scrape or shoveling snow off it. Build a stand and make it turnable to catch the rays. I've had my Honda 2000 for ten years now and love it. But cheaper ones don't last so long but work out ok and you get 3 or 4 for the price of a Honda. Good luck. Can chickens good eats.
    2
  56. Put another post in under your wires. Build a narrow table in between the 2 post. Kitchen table. Better then nothing i gess. You got choices now. Chose wisely grasshopper lol

  59. Wheres the boss of the swamp fridge you made. It was in the house .did you toss it out. And why
    1
  60.  @KYLESCABIN  the boss had like a tub in his . And 8 inches thick. And the vent to outside air and a drip pan will help. It's best to take a camper fridge put it in and insulate around it heavy. I should try one at my shack and see how it works. You should watch one woman's wilderness this week. She pouched a well and had problems but they got her water by god
    1
  61. I see you got a hired man working for ya. No better times in your life. Daddy time. I had 50 years of it and wish I had more time with dad. So enjoy your father all you can. It's priceless to me anyhow. Have fun at it. Bear goes good with tators carrots onions in gravy. Lol but it does

  73. Your meat chicken take what 8 weeks till butchering time. Let them go a few weeks more for bigger birds 10 to 12 pounds on a few birds. It's like small turkeys. We did it that way and it worked out nice. Good eating and smoking. It's almost garden time. Don't plant your beans next to onions they don't get along. Pour a coffee can of would ash in each bed and till it in. Pot ash. Not to much and you can test your soil. On your animals I'd only get meat goats to eat or sell. Better eating then deer. Sheep not so much. Rack of lamb is good. Old sheep not so much and you have to many wolves and coyotes. They will kill them all and you won't get nothing. Feed will be your biggest cost up north. Corn and hay is way to high. Plus fencing and a building and chores everyday and lots of water
    1

  79. If you can get power there i would and use it wisely. Cuz oct to april your burning 3.59 gas to make your power. Do your math. My bill is 50/85 each month. At a gallon a day times 30 days adds up. Thats 107 per month. Use alittle of each. Can you drill a well at your big house. Water and heat and lights is most people need or want. Lifes a journey. Learn as you go. I use a bit of all. Not spendy at all. I use wood and l.p.gas mostly. No battery bank yet but someday
    1
  80. You better cut 12 cords of wood cut for winter. Gonna be cold an lots of snow.I'd stay in your other home for winter. More room an more power options

  84. Good thing you can swim lad lol do yourself a favor. Spend some money and buy a few loads of 2 inch rock and have it spread to make you a good base on your driveway. Then top coat with small rock. It makes it alot better for year around use. Trust me on this. I did it and it works great

Come to babbitt free drinking water . come and take all you want anytime day or bite. Fill them up and haul it home. Its good stuff. Stop in I can help you out maybe. Gardens make good eats.
