That is a handy makeshift rigging table…

“Hon, it says here we can use Blue Bunny 1/2 gallon containers to make ice packs.”

Next thing I hear is the garage door opening & leaving rubber down the street.
Didn’t even get a chance to mention the balloons.

“No… it’s okay, I know the way out…”

Excellent find commander Skinneej. I have been on the hunt for a heavy “doodie” beach chair and this one looks good. I think it will also work well as a good chumming station. Knock out a double batch of Shot Gun Willies chili, and let the slick begin. Only concern is Grace will consider it a all you can eat buffet at the Golden Corral.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

What model did you get and what is your storage bin size? I want to get one, but the choices are overwhelming.

Not sure on the model, I’ll find it. Bin holds 50# but it’s more like 60#. It’ll make 150# a day if you let it. It cycles fast and isn’t that crap soft ice. I did some research when I was looking, Hoshisinki was the name that kept coming up. I have a HVAC sub that does ice machines too, said they rarely work on them. Bought it at PoBoys in Georgetown, they always have used ones in. I just about bought a 600# machine, glad I didn’t.
