RobinHood's post reminded me that I needed to post an update on the battle with the moose varmints. I bought a Gallagher M360 fencer, some 4' fiberglass stakes, and 1300 ft of poly wire. The M360 is rated at 3.6 joules, so it should repel my large varmints. I cut the 4' rods down to 2', drilled some holes in the tops of my 5' T-posts, and wired the fiberglass rods to the top of the T-posts. They make a neat little SS wire clip for the 3/8 rod, making it really easy to string the poly wire. Once done, it kind of resembles Stallag 13, but there are no moose or deer getting inside the fence anymore. The hard part was drilling holes in T-posts. Those suckers are hard!! I'm setting up the trail cam to see if I can catch a critter getting bit, but I'm not holding my breath. The neighbor has a similar setup around his orchard, so the moose probably already know what that little white wire is all about. The roll of wire at the end of the run could be considered grandson bait, but it's really to finish out the run over the top of the hard panels, once they are set permanently. I'll get it up out of reach before those varmints show up on my doorstep. steve

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
