Who Here Has A Generator, And It Saved Them ?
Jeb48 replied to billt's topic in Survival and Preparedness
I have had my Honda EU2000 since 2003. With a little common sense I can run everything to be comfortable. I went one step further and added UPS units to our computers, entertainment center, internet hub, etc so that I can ride out short outages and only start the generator when it looks like it is going to be longer. About 2 years ago I picked up a Wen 1250-Watt inverter generator. It acts as a back up to the Honda (with a bit more conservation) and burns less gas for long outages. It also gives me a lighter generator when I don't want to drag the Honda around. Both are very quiet and can not be heard inside the house or by any of my neighbors. -

Interesting design for the time. Also interesting way to hold it.

After using cheap sale and flea market paint I started buying my target paint from https://www.rangestore.net. Target Paint has a higher percentage of pigment and covers faster. It cost more but covers faster, so goes further. Several of my heavy use targets was getting ruts under them from deflected bullets. I tried mulch but it turns to dust fairly fast. I then found rubber mulch and it holds up well, just rake them back in place once in awhile.

I have a small range. I shoot off my back deck out to about 30 yards into a hill side. If I set up a portable shooting table I can extend to 60 yards, but I checked it out the other day and some trees need some trimming for 60 yards since it was last used. My close target is 10 yards. I have an assortment of steel in different thicknesses That I color code when I paint them. Red for .22 only, Yellow for hand guns and carbine, Green for most anything within reason considering the distance. By doing a mix I could put up a lot more .22 steel for the money, and more reactive. I have a couple of places that I can hang paper when I need to sight in a gun.
