I'll start off with this.. after the guys graciously put up my tower, I'd look like a shit heel if I moved so soon. On the other hand, I found a listing I could write a check for in a neighboring free (for now) state.
Its a non-permitted tiny home of 375 square feet with a useable loft and a 24x36 garage. That's perfect for me.  It has electric, natural gas, and a wood stove. I really like redundancy. I called the zoning dept and they are aware of the listing. At a minimum it would need to be on a proper foundation rather than the cinder blocks it's on. I have no clue what it would cost to do that. Writing a check for the asking price would come close to wiping out my savings as well as a few other expenses such as a snow plow to deal with the 67" average snowfall. I doubt I could get a mortgage since my only income is now social security.
Maybe I could negotiate the price down, but it's already far below comparable prices in the area. Does anyone have a clue what it would cost to lift this thing and put in a proper foundation or any other thoughts?

He's out of the hospital and back home. I talked to him on the phone yesterday. I'm giving him a couple of weeks to rest and then I'll head down to Alabama for a few days to help him get his final arrangements in order. Hopefully he won't need them for a long time. However, he's still a heavy smoker despite the COPD and this near miss so it's doubtful.

Cut vs swage

Im processing a large batch of 223 range brass preparing to load up a bunch of 223 plinking ammo. Think several thousand rounds worth

I've always cut the crimps out, but i'm wondering if with this large of a batch if I would be better off swaging them out.

Thoughts?
