1/17/2024 0 Comments Ladder stands plans![]() Sorry I forgot you need to make 2 braces. then drive a 40 penny spike thru the short board into the tree, this will hold it to the tree. Get a friend to help you lean the stand up against the tree and move the legs out until the seat is level (the 2 ft legs behind the seat should extend past the tree that you are mounting it on) now climb the ladder and attach a piece of 2x4 to the top of the seat rails with nails or screws so that the board is tight to the tree. The best way I've found to put them on the tree is to use and extension ladder. Now you have a top piece and a ladder lay the top piece on its side and place the ladder inside the 2 2x4 with the notch in the back and the ladder at about 10 degrees off vertical (makes for easier climbing if not straight up) now use nails or screws to attach the ladder to the seat assembly (I put 3 or 4 from each side and cinch them down by bending the points over) now you have a basic ladder stand. ![]() Then just place a step every 18 inches til you get to the bottom use 2 nails or screws in each side of each step (if the pt is old and dry it helps to predrill holes to keep down splitting). Now get 2 16ft long 2x4's and place them inside the 2x4's holding the seat (agian narrow side up) to get the spacing for the ladder rungs (should be around 18 inches) now square up the 2 16ft 2x4's and starting from the top measure down 18 inches (this is the most comfortable distance I've found) for the top rung. Cut a 6 inch v notch in one side (this will go up against the tree) mount the seat on 2 parallel 4ft long 2X4's leaving 4 inches of the 2x4 exposed on the front (v on the back) with the narrow side of the 2x4's against the plywood. Staring with the seat I use a 2ft by 2ft piece of 3/4inch pt plywood that I paint with some kind of waterseal product until it will no longer suck up anymore. I only use pressure treated lumber and plywood and ring shank 16penny nails or 3inch sheetrock screws (galvanized is best) for the body of the stand and I attatch to the tree with 40 penny spikes. Sorry I don't have a picture but I'll try to explain how I build my ladder stands. Just remember that when you build something to hold you in a tree, you are backing your life/health with the guarantee of your workmanship. You can also look at pictures of stands and make something that will suit your needs. Add the word "free" and you will come up with a little less but still enough to choose from. If you google for "homemade deer stand plans" or "homemade hunting stand plans" you will come with a bunch. This is the main reason most all professionally or commercially built units are made from metal or fiberglass. More hunters are injured by falling from their deer stands than other hunting accidents. Any time you place yourself any distance off the ground you want to insure safety. If not checked rather often to insure stability and good condition, the next time you used it could be your last. ![]() Wood deteriorates rather quickly when left in the outdoor elements(rain,wind,ice,snow). Apply a few coats of paint over the components, to enhance their appearance and to protect them from bad weather.While being able to say "I made it myself" when speaking about the stand you bagged a deer from is self gratifying, it could also be self endangering.

GM chose the Chevy Bolt EUV for that system, which has been corralled over in Cadillac for the past several years. The Chevy Bolt doesn’t come with GM’s hands-free driver assistance system known as Super Cruise. The driver depresses the accelerator pedal to move once the driver’s foot leaves the pedal, the vehicle’s regenerative braking kicks in and will bring the vehicle to a stop. One new feature is a button in the center console that when engaged allows one-pedal driving. As mentioned before, the 2022 Chevy Bolt still doesn’t come standard with in-car navigation, relying instead on CarPlay or Android Auto. Just like the previous version, the 2022 model comes standard with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The vehicle includes a touchscreen display that is a bit larger at 10.2 inches as well as an 8-inch digital instrument cluster. GM said the improvements were based on customer feedback. For that price, GM tried to pack in a bit more such as an updated modern interior and “more comfortable” bucket seating, according to the company. The 2022 Chevy Bolt, which starts at $31,995, is a couple grand cheaper than the new Bolt EUV. The takeaway: GM is using its scale to keep prices low in hopes of attracting customers who have a growing pool of EV options.Ģ022 Chevrolet Bolt EV. The new refreshed Chevy Bolt, which is described in greater detail below, has also received a price cut. That $33,995 price point stands out because it’s actually slighter cheaper than the 2021 Chevy Bolt that is currently sitting in dealerships. Drivers will have to upgrade beyond the EUV’s $33,995 base price. 22 hours ago &0183 &32 That’s a smaller cargo area than the new Chevy Trax (from which the Envista borrows its platform) at 25.6 cubic feet, the 23. ![]() The hands-free system won’t come standard, however. The EUV - a GM acronym that means electric utility vehicle - also has the notable distinction of being the first Chevrolet to have the hands-free driver assistance system known as Super Cruise. The result is a compact crossover with 39.1 inches of rear seat legroom. In all, the EUV sits some 6 inches longer than the Bolt EV. GM lengthened the wheelbase of the EUV by about 3 inches. The 2022 Chevy Bolt EUV is bigger than the Chevy Bolt hatchback. The vehicles, which are expected to go on sale this summer, are like siblings: The pair share much of the same DNA but have their own distinct differences. GM revealed Sunday a refreshed Chevrolet Bolt EV and a new, bigger - yet still compact - crossover called the Chevrolet Bolt EUV as part of the automaker’s goal to introduce 30 electric vehicles in the next four years. ![]() 1/17/2024 0 Comments Blue lantern modules![]() VCA CV input jack is a direct DC coupled input. This is good for making the audio louder at given intervals, but not making the audio 'mute'. For example if you patch a -5/+5v signal, only the +5v portion reaches the VCA control. Accent input jack is a POSITIVE only conditioner. The internal circuit is an OTA based '13700' VCA design. Shorter decay times work best and make the looping faster. Decay knob needs to be adjusted as you experiment using Regen and Delay parameters. Delay parameter controls the time until the next 1 shot of your loop. This controls the looping of your envelope. Regeneration 'REGEN' parameter is a feedback. Some of the wave forms have set attack times if you require some 'fading' in on the control. The decay knob controls the tail of the envelope. This is a digital based 1 shot circuit, that has 8 wave forms. FM INPUT jack is also a DC signal path, but with level control (attenuator). ![]() CMOS FX INPUT jack has a capacitor on it's signal path, making this an AC input.

When repotting, choose a new planter which is only slightly larger. Once every two to three years is sufficient. As this species continues to thrive when rootbound, don’t rush to repot them. This can make the roots a bit snug in their pots. Variegated String of Hearts will sometimes produce underground tubers. Allow a pink string of hearts plant to rest during the winter by reducing water and skipping the fertilizer until spring. Once monthly, with a half-strength formula of houseplant food, is sufficient. Sting of Hearts plants don’t require frequent fertilizing. Choose a pot with adequate drainage holes or cut additional holes in the bottom of the planter with a knife. The general rule of thumb is to water only when the top surface of the soil is dry.Ī cactus soil mix works well for these houseplants and naturally, good drainage is a must. As a succulent-like plant, they prefer a drier growing medium and don’t tolerate soggy soil or overwatering. Variegated String of Hearts plants are as easy to care for as they are pretty.

When you have 1000 Legion Tokens, buy Exalted Legion Champion, and sell back High Legion Champion. The goal here is to use the High Legion Champion quest to get 1000 Legion Tokens before 24 hours are up on High Legion Champion. ![]() The next step is to buy High Legion Champion (this can be purchased from Dage the Evil in the Legion Shop in the Underworld map). Notice how you get 1080 ACs back- this gives you enough to jump straight in to the fastest non-rare way of farming Legion Tokens (detailed later). Because AC items sell back for 90% of the purchase value in the first 24 hours, you can sell Undead Warrior back for 1080 ACs. The first step is to complete the Legion initiation quests (See below: Initiation Into the Undead Legion) within 24 hours of buying Undead Warrior (which can be purchased from Dage the Evil in the Underworld in the Armor Shop or from the Legendary Suggestion Shop in Yulgar's Inn. ![]() There is a very special method that you can use to make the most of the 1200 AC entry fee you paid to the Legion. As long as you sell the armors within the 24 hours, you'll have the ACs on your account, and can use them whenever you're up for farming. Also note that by no means do you have to do this back to back you can sell one armor, wait a few days or until you're ready for more farming, and then buy the armor again. Also please see the Some Notes section for an important note on this) to sell it back for 90% of the original cost, after which point the sellback drops to 25%. When you buy an item for ACs, you have 24 hours from the time you buy it (so you'll probably want to make note of this, since there is no indicator in-game to tell you. The following method mentions several "24 hour sellback" times. If you want to try Exalted Legion Champion, farm the 1000 Legion Tokens using the Lack of Four-Sight quest first, and then buy Exalted Legion Champion that way. You can still try the following trick, but I'd recommend against it. You'll still want to get the Initiation quests done within 24 hours of buying Undead Warrior, but after that you can use The Most Efficient Non-Pet Method to farm your Legion Tokens. This section is no longer quite as relevant, as there is now a better way to farm Legion Tokens without the time limit imposed by High Legion Champion. I'd also encourage you not to skip sections unless they're entirely unnecessary to you I've put information in certain sections that pertains to the Legion as well as how the format and structure of this guide work, and as a result I'd appreciate if you read the sections. Hopefully this guide will be able to help you obtain those more expensive items as well, if you want them. ![]() It's a bit of an unfortunate occurrence but Legion Token prices have been hit heavily with inflation as a result you'll see much of the older items in a lower range of pricing, while newer items (especially those that have an AC equivalent) are much, much more expensive. It will detail how to get into the Legion and, once you've done that, how to best earn the Legion Tokens you need for that Legion gear. The purpose of this guide is, in essence, to help you make the most of your time. I am making the assumption that by finding your way here, you have seen some Legion items (and as a result, I will NOT be compiling a list of those items or doing a section on them they're easy to go look at yourself) and are interested in joining the Legion. Note that Artix Entertainment intended this to be endgame content, and so it will be harder for a lower leveled character to join and do the quests for farming.

There really is no reason unless you want specific rewards from Strikes.įractals alone gives people the means to get ascended gear with ease and lets them farm lots of gold for legendaries and even has a legendary associated with it. Strikes give you none of this, Strikes are not even close to efficient when it comes to farming gold or ascended gear. Not to mention gold, you can make 30+ gold in an hour or less for just doing dailies plus you get random drops of ascended materials that sell for even more gold. Even armour can be bought for cheap.įractals also get you a full set of stat-selectable and stat changeable ascended accessories every 5 days. This means you can get an ascended weapon once every 3 days. Someone who does T4+CMs everyday gets 300+ fractal relics for one completion and 21 pristine relics per day. Have you calculated the amount of time it will take for you to get one piece of ascended gear from Strikes vs Fractals? Now let's talk about why people don't do Strikes.
