While walking across the lake today in my sandals and shorts, i felt a breeze. Low and behold, I looked down through the ice, and there was a fan blowing. I figured, no it cant be; I took a closer looks and saw a KC royals sticker and a Unicorn on it. I immediately thought of this thread and ran to get the auger and try and drill it out.

Well, by the time I got back with the auger, it had floated away under the ice or something; however, I did see a guy packing up an item into the back of his truck and driving away very quickly...

See now... If the Roaming Gnome had a 20" box fan strapped to his back he could hover over all the lakes and give us reports on where the fish are biting.....

Course then he would need a really long extention cord...

And he would have to fix the cord first....

OK......never mind.

Wow this thread is a direct decendent of the Energizer Bunny it keeps going and going and....

I just stumbled upon it and while at first found it a bit cruel after finishing the first page I found myself laughing out load hysterically. Sorry to all but this took on a life of it's own. I was scanning these because I had some items to give away but now I feel I may need to re-access and make sure they are worthy of being passed on. Although possibly reigniting another one of these might be a hoot. Hmm what would qualify as an item which could invoke such enthusiasm? Anybody? Bueller? Anybody? Priceless. Again my apologies to all.

Zap...what do you plan on giving away. We may be able to give you somne suggestions on how to raise interest in your items and move them onto a new home. Without knowing what you are giving away, here are a couple tips. Throw a couple stickers on it. A little bit of individuality makes items more desireable. If it has a cord, slice it to make it a "fixer-upper", everyone likes a little challenge. In your description, use exact details, it lets the new owner know exactly what they are getting!!!

I think a more important selling point would be that it doesn't bother the cat. Do not loose focus on the impact the item will have on the domestic pets. Then I could look at details such as stickers as long as I steer away from KC Royals. The unicorn maybe OK.

i might of been seeing things but i saw that fan today. I was driving on hwy 55 east bound and I slowed down to turn and behind me I was a youg lady (good looking too). but riding shot gun was a fan and I just saw only one blade. I was area annandale so please keep an eye out for the fan. The car she was driving was a pontiac grand [PoorWordUsage].

2 box fans need a new home. They are dirty but can be easily cleaned up.

Location: St. Paul MN

it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

this may explain why it has not been sighted in a while. may just be that the fan has found a mate. just think of the little fans running around in a few months. ... paul

its a wooden one. with the rise in aliminium prices i recycled the aluminium one. the rungs on it were only v-shaped due to load stress, not missing. it did however keep your feet centered on the rung but was not as stable. ... paul

TRZ, sorry I cant help myself.

Free. Left sock, right sock is missing but you may have one like it. Still in good shape.

Some things just arent even worth giving away..

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      By Wanderer · Posted

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
