    Looking for a piece of scrap or cheap pipe

    I've used ABS for other runs, but this particular run I thought metal would be best as I don't want to have to go through digging up and replacing ever again. Regarding the large ID, I have a fair bit of water feeding this run and I am tying in another pipe. Appreciate all the fedback!

    Anyone else see the 1/2 ton with fifth wheel on the side of road on highway two North between Gull Lake and Edmonton? I'm thinking the those rear wheels splaying out sideways was not a good thing.

    The 15 minute City Debate starts tomorrow!

    Been thinkng about this....I can't see these districts having much in the way of independent business. I suspect each district will have a Walmart, Costco, Home Depot and Pet Smart. Great opportunites for the mega corps to have captive consumers. Retail space will be very expensive and only...

    Get out your bowl of granola to watch this one

    I think you nailed it. I was trying to figure out what the point was of this video. Beautiful sledding and skiiing. We like to play outside, but I feel so guilty for it and hate myself, is what I thought as well. Was like a big therapy group. Seemed like click bait to me to promote Teton...
