Costya giving Dima a lift on the new atv

Costya and Dima having a blast at Ram Offroad. I think they'll need bigger bikes next year. They are growing fast

The inverter has been working great for about a month and a half, two months. But when I try to get the other inverter up and running without any physical connection between the two except for the communications cables it died bad

A tornado hit our neighbors land several days ago, I had no idea they could form in the mountains. Damage

This thing exploded right in front of us. We weren't expecting it and it only goes off every two and a half to 5 hours. Great timing eh?

Dima in the wind tunnel, he had a blast!

Flight lessons in the wind tunnel

The boys got their first lesson driving the Polaris today. Dima took to it like a duck to water

It took me a long time to crack the nut, turns out I just needed a better air filtration and new consumables. This particular job took about 8.5 minutes to cut. Lots of small irregular holes and all of them fell right out after cutting. Amazing what this thing will do at this price point. Total size was 12 in x 24 in Settings on this with brand new consumables Razor cut 45 plasma cutter 35 amps 90 IPM cutting speed 90 IPM lead in / out

Wish I had something like this growing up

About 20 yards off a rest. The firearm is a Kriss Vector SDP in .45. You can see where the bullets impacted the tree. This was after the "official" sight-in, where I had put a screw into the tree and heated it with a propane torch

A 360 degree view at the land with the vibe. You can see my boy Dmitri on his motorcycle, the shed with the heat from the chimney coming out, the generator, and the truck. All in a snowstorm Pretty awesome!

The first video showing several modes and zoom levels. So far I REALLY like it. It's a mid-level thermal scope with a 388 Chineseum core. The video you see is NOT what I see at the eyepiece...there is a lot of post-processing that happens and the eyepiece video is MUCH better. One of the VERY cool features is the ability to broadcast the live video via wi-fi. If my family wants to see how I am doing they can fire up a phone or tablet and watch. Great video, tons of features, and a decent price. My initial reaction is "love it!"

After ensuring the hydraulic unit wasn't going to explode on me I did some work with the log splitter

I finished the hydraulic power pack to run my homemade log splitter. The original intent was to run the splitter off my Deere 450C but it now needs an engine rebuild. I had been toying with the idea of making the hydraulic unit for a while to power various tools. With the exception of one minor drip it worked great!
