  1. I have the Anova and have been loving it. I 'll echo what others have said in that the bluetooth feature is useless. If we prepare NY strips or ribeye, I finish 'em outside on the gas side burner in a cast iron pan. Then de-glaze said pan with a bit of red wine, mushroom stock or whatever nad then add the juices left in the bottom of the sous-vide cook bag and use as a glaze for veg or spuds. Bon Appetit!

  2. Last minute change for me, Spence. I'm in. I'll be arriving with "he who shall remain un-named" friday evening. Due to my age, I won't be making a hundred jumps, but will be all over the beer/food/festivities thang. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  3. Thank goodness! I was not relishing the thought of you being a full time DZ slacker again. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  4. hmmmmm... that's not what my sticker says.. did 'ski get new stickers? You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  5. the spot was awesome when i climbed out... You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  6. posture... shoulder... bruises??? Landed off the DZ, eh? You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  7. Paint Your Wagon...Clint Eastwood's vocal debut You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  8. Pete: I was in pis-poor position as a result of the mal and chopped while spinning around while on my back. The reserve had several line twists. ETA: Still the best opening I've ever had
  9. @ tampapete- nope it was my rig after a tandem vid @ski- Nope, I was jumping my pilot yesterday. The other one and I have an agreement in place; I keep her in her bottle except in emergencies and she's nice to me. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  10. White as all hell. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  11. No, we're not having an affair. The dear boy did save my life yesterday. Prettiest canopy and best opening I've ever had in my life.
  12. So, my question is, Just when in the hell are you gonna catch up on this beer thing? Seems you're behind on more than one count... You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  13. Not exactly the look of sheer terror I was expecting, though. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  14. It wasn't originally my intention to market them, so what you see is a prototype and they're still kinda pricey. I'm thinking about floating a few of them out there for my cost + shipping just to get feedback so I can do any fine tuning. PM me for more details. That said, I'm reasonably certain someone will want to manufacture and market... and closely watch their competition. Yeah, I'm still available to PM...

  15. Prick! I guess that means you're one of those "right-handed nylon Americans", eh? You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
  16. OK... I'm guilty. I built them to 'ski's specs; I am neither a machinist nor a rigger, just a tradesman with some resources available. I'll post some more detailed pictures tomorrow from the DZ of the 12" one I built. It wasn't originally my intention to market them, so what you see is a prototype and they're still kinda pricey. I'm thinking about floating a few of them out there for my cost + shipping just to get feedback so I can do any fine tuning. Stainless was a thought and certainly can be done; obviously that would run the cost up significantly. I don't know how well a stainless knee plate and an aluminum crank tool/"positive leverage device" would play together. I welcome your thoughts and feedback. I have plenty of stock left from what I bought for the first batch I made PM me for more details. P.S. 'Ski... That the best you can do for a photo? Looks like one your tandem photos. Thanks Bra You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.
