Lesser Known History

I wouldn't sell...belonged to great grandpop, grandpop, weldabeast....I'm torn....it's got a bunch of "character" aka beat to shiz...I thought about taking to the machine shop and having them deck it but then u loose all that character....
 
Fun Fact... Michigan earned the UP due to a conflict with Ohio during the Toledo War. The U.S. government came in a basically told them chill, give Toledo to Ohio, and in exchange you get the UP... It doesn't make any sense, but some answer is better than none I guess. No one was ever killed, and it was just a mental proxy war.

Nope. Don't sell it and don't face it. A friend of mine collects them. Has a house full of them on different stumps. He wire wheels them clean and clears them. They look good.
 
If you get a chance jocko has a new 6part podcast series on the civil war. It’s definitely worth a listen!
If you listen to Jocko you probably know Daryl Cooper of Martyrmade fame. His deep dives into human sacrifice and the People's Temple are as informative and fascinating as they are disturbing.
 
Do any of you have interesting tidbits of lesser known history that you can share?
More in the recent history column but I think this fits squarely into the "interesting tidbits" and "lesser known" categories...

I think a lot of it had to do with Ohio getting the Maumee River and shipping access to the Great Lakes.

As one who grew up in Monroe Michigan, and spent a lot of his childhood going in and out of Toledo for work and school...I believe Michigan definitely got the better deal!
 
U going Tibetan style huh? I can build u the convex launcher outta 7000 series aluminum but I'll need to know exact height and weight with all ur gear on....I promise not to tell anybody how not ultralite ur hunting load out is.

Absolutely. I got enough band staff. Actually the more I think about this the better it gets... after the help me "climb" to my spot, they'll all walk back to to van shouting the classic "Welp, guess I'm done hunting for the day!". We all know that deers come out of the woodwork as soon as we leave the area.
 
12:28... looks like I got my new climbing method for next year.

I'm going to go ahead and patent the Portable Oscillating Object Relocator (POOR) climbing method before someone else gets the idea.

Portable oscillating Object Projector has a nice ring to it
