DIY Fishing Cam
Переглядів 3364 роки тому
A fishcam can make ice fishing more interesting. You can sit in a chair and see down the hole in the ice without having to lay on the ice. An inexpensive fishcam can be made from a webcam out of an old Toshiba laptop, attach it to an otg cable, put it in a piece of scrap metal tube that has a hole drilled for the lens, cover the lens hole with a small piece of glass glued with marine epoxy to g...

How one person can separate a stuck fly rod
Переглядів 9 тис.9 років тому
Had a fly rod that wouldn't come apart I tried all of the advise on the Internet, pull with knees, putting ice, hot water and WD40 on the ferrules and tugging on them all a waste of time. Didn't have a second person for the 2 person pull or a can of butane for the freeze method. So I taped two pieces of 1 inch thick x 12 inch long scrap wood to the rod on either side of the ferrule with electri...
Gordon Lightfoot Interviewed by Sylvia Tyson 70's
Переглядів 12 тис.9 років тому
One of the best Gordon Lightfoot interviews. The interview was hosted by Sylvia Tyson.
Wow never noticed how much that accent resembles what I heard growing up in Wisconsin haha. You enriched our lives immeasurably Gord. Safe passage, dear dear troubadour 🙏✨
How cosy!! You could tell he was talking to someone he trusted..And she was gentle and respectful..
Could be one of the best interviews I’ve ever heard . Gord st his candid best…
I like this. Simple but very useful! Where’s that stupid lawnmower?!
Looks like it could have been one of these. From Lightfoot webpage. CBC RADIO - November, 1974 Lightfoot is interviewed by Sylvia Tyson, resulting in a wide ranging, rambling talk. CBC RADIO - Feb. 10, 1975 Lightfoot touches on reviews, writing and sailing in this interview done in Vancouver. TOUCH THE EARTH - CBC RADIO - July 9, 1975
Bruce you rock! Hardy Demon was stuck again. Tried the frozen paper towel trick, the two person technique, behind my knees. Nothing worked. Last time this happened, I broke the rod. Tried what you suggested with a cheap clamp and some gorilla tape and it worked like a charm. Saved me a lot of headache! Thanks so much.
This is the best interview i’ve ever heard with Gordon Lightfoot, because Gord was forthright, and not filtering his conversation. Gordon typically does interviews with a lot of carefully thought out answers. But in this, the real Gordon, relaxed and just talking with his friend Sylvia, is heard, saying what he wants and not sounding cautious or hesitant. Great interview!
can confirm that this worked for my 10ft 10-15kg surf rod, thanks for sharing!
I want to hear the Hoolahoop song in its entirety! It sounds humorous and we need songs like that now. What a great interview!
*very nicely built.⌯⌯⌯ **ss2.me/4b1 ** the handle long blot and nut was missing but I have spare hardware in the garage. I did grease the axles before placing the tires on. grease the pivot the front wheels turn on. just may buy another*
Camped here once, nice large campsites with sandy beaches, a little tricky to find!
What the heck? Gordo is from Orillia?????? Glenn Gould summered there for much of his life???????? WHAT is in that water?????????????????????????
I was looking about for a heavy lowboy dolly of some sort, and today I spotted this vid. Brilliant job, and this will come in handy for a heavy item my brother and I need to move!
I am s it by myself. I used woodprix woodworking plans for that.
Firstly outstanding, it worked. Even when ice , double handed technique didnt with 4 people. What is the model of clamp you used? I used quick grip mini irwin , and gorilla tap. I had to help hold the wood inline when pushing it appart. So thats why i think the irwin model of clamp is important.
12" No name brand from a local liquidation store called Surplus Herby's.
flaws and all,..... Best. Interview. ever. Assuming this was recorded for Sylvia's mid 1970s CBC program, Touch the Earth. There must be a better recording of this, Touch the Earth was done for CBC Stereo, now Radio 2.
The authenticity of this recorded discussion is unlike any other public released interview, or otherwise. As a student of Lightfoot since 1963, this recording is a unique quanta in the raw....story ~ Drink yer glasses empty boys and girls!
This is an amazing interview. I think Gord wasn't completely sober (not unusual), but he is very forthcoming. I love Sylvia, and she brings Gord out in a very non-confrontational setting. Great stuff.
I usually hold stuck rod sections between my knees and pull apart with hands.
Hi. When I pull the trigger, the wood slides along the rod. Do you have any tip to make it stop rolling with the rod?
Try wrapping the tape tighter without any space between the wraps and/or use a different brand of electrical tape.
thx, i'll try it.
you rock man thanks!!!!
This worked when no other technique did! It saved a Sage rod I inherited from my younger brother who passed away from Lou Gehrig's disease...means a lot to me. Thanks so much for this great idea!
Never really heard Gord talk until this Audio!! Excellent and honest!
What a relaxed and intimate conversation...just magic !
Wow, huh? As a long time fan of BOTH Gordon Lightfoot and Sylvia, this conversation was sure a neat find, these decades later. Sit back, relax, and think of the music as they have their chat!
Lightfoot, you sly dog!
this must have been spring 1975 after his divorce was finalized at end of 1974. what a great chat he and Sylvia had..thanks for posting it!
I've listened to this interview 3 times, trying to get a clear understanding of the context of all of his remarks. It was such a frenetic & chaotic time in his life. He talks about his "last album" -which was Sundown, released in January 1974 & recorded the previous November. & he has a clear month-by-month recollection of the hit singles & other events around it. But later on he also talks about having laid down the track for The Soul Is The Rock, Twice. Which was on the next album, Cold On The Shoulder. COTS was recorded Sept.-Dec.1974. But not released until Feb.1975. & he talks about right then being in a relaxed window of time because he doesn't have to write. So COTS is already in the can, but it sounds like it's not yet released. COTS was released in February 1975. But he doesn't mention his new album in the interview with Sylvia. I would place this interview in January 1975. It's a fascinating interview. Talking about the divorce from Brita having just been finalized on Dec. 31st.(1974) & he talks about being proud of The Soul Is The Rock, saying that he was trying to write it when he had just broken up with his girlfriend in August.(1974) -Which had to be Cathy Smith. What a tumultuous time in his life. & then talking about renovating the new house he had moved in to-which must have been the house on Beaumont Road where he would host some famous parties. What a time in his life. & he admits to being in a fog for much of it. To his closest friends, it must have been like watching a train wreck. I will always wish someone had intervened sooner, even though such things have their own timeline & they only happen when they can happen.
@@bethp.1806 Whaa? Why do you think it necessary to write/repeat everything he said-we’ve all just finished listening to this interview. You don’t know anything more than what we’ve already heard here!!??🤔ho hum 🥱
@@bethp.1806 His wife Brita intervened during their marriage and tried hard to get him to stop drinking stop sleeping around and stop becoming so enraged he'd break things-including his hand. So many people tried and tried to help him, but he denied needing help over and over again. He even tried to sue Rolling Stone Magazine when a story they did about him focused on his alcohol consumption and how it had aged and bloated him. This guy was determined to die, to be frank.
