Mine do too. I figger for all the longer nic will be in those bottles it's fine. Once I can sell some stuff and get other things I need, I may look into them, cuz I'm sure it would better. By the time I get to the end of this nic, I'll let ya know, but so far so good, been in there since around Feb or March.

Be careful just getting caps. I've heard folks say that a lotta times if you buy caps separately they don't always fit the bottles, particularly if you get them other places. I don't know but would expect that might be even more so if one of those places is Amazon
I thought of that, too. But I found the caps by looking up the wide mouth boston round bottles, which do not look like the ones I got on Amazon. The site offered a selection option for different caps to fit the bottles.

Update on the
life and crimes of Runamok. I had the water pump on my truck die overnight, Wednesday no problem, Thursday a.m. got to work and it's leaking like a sieve. So I dropped it off w/ my mechanic and walked home, I'm way outta shape for a 5 mile hike.
I saw a soccer ball in the ditch and decided this was cool, picked it up and was bouncing it on the sidewalk to get the flurb off it when it went funny, swept my foot out to nudge it back and stepped on it.....down goes my old .... flat out on my donkey and bang the back o my head on the sidewalk. I felt like a blindsided Quarterback. I can no longer play soccer. A Lady saw my crash and burn and stopped to ask if I was ok. I said the only injury was my pride, except I've stressed most of my major mussel groups trying not to break my ..... Reminded me I'm not a kid anymore. $350.00 later I got my truck back. Now though I'm dealing with monetary anemia cause my reserves are gone. Anyone want to buy a soccer ball?
Oh wow! That could have been really bad! Didn't your mechanic have someone to give you a ride home? 5 miles is a long way. Glad you are ok, tho!

Very entertainingly written but the banging your head on the sidewalk part doesn't work for me. Is the sidewalk OK?

Meet Me in St Louie Louie
It's a cold day, dreary with a light cold steady rain .. since last night .. and, it's taken down those last leaves left on my trees and another round of small dead branches, so the good news is, just one more go at Fall yard cleanup and I'll be good to go .. ran the gas out of the mower last weekend and set it away for the Winter .. time to fill and hang the Winter bird feeders ..

This AM, as I sat and had my morning coffee and first few hits off the PV, the house was silent, other than the faint sound of raindrops hitting the skylights .. I gazed out of the back window wall and thought to myself, "Another year begins to draw to a close .. " .. for some odd reason, my mind drifted to the old O. Henry short story, "The Last Leaf" .. a story that encapsulates so much Human emotion in so few words .. in the rare case that any have not read it, take a moment if you can ..

The Last Leaf by O Henry

If the readers out there are looking for any Winter reads to pass the short days and long nights, give a try to the Patrick O'Brian Aubrey-Maturin series beginning with "Master and Commander" .. the film is one of my favorites, however the book series is a wonderful trip into a long gone era .. don't be intimidated by the series being 20 books .. they are all pretty well stand alone reads ..

Tossing out a few for my friends ..

I think the slick coating is plastic, i.e. plasticised paper. Should be fine, but will fall apart after repeated use.

And I use the small square of plastic wrap between cap and bottle for long term (freezer) storage. May provide a better air-tight seal.



Nope, not until you get some kanthal and rayon and start rebuilding them :)

(And since you already rebuild T3S heads, those should be a snap. Although the RBA deck for those is even easier... )
They are vertical coils and do not come apart well from what I have seen in the vids.

Gasoline prices are still dropping around here - $1.72 per gal this afternoon...

Long lines with the price drop... A man pulls in and as he is getting out of his car - I guess his phone rings - almost 15 min later he gets out and proceeds to fill up his car with gas... As I am leaving I see a lady standing outside her car waiting while her gas is pumping - "Smoking a cigarette"...

Last Saturday and today, lots of gunfire sounds coming from the property of the neighbor to my east. I'm used to it from the neighbor to my west but until a week ago, not my east.

Bunch of good ole boys, pickup trucks, and guns. I had to go up and take a look.

Hmm. The factory heads that came with my 2 STMs and 1 STBIG (original, 25 mm) are all horizontal, but could well have been subject to a design change...

Was looking for gunsmoke, but I guess James Arness isn't a neighbor?

(And I can see it now, when your vids start getting hundreds of thousands of hits. Your new "handle" for those, since you're really into drones, could be "the waving lunatic" - all successful campaigns need a slogan!) :lol:
