I was in your shoes a few months ago… started butchering goats, wanted more space for game and game meat processing. Looked on craigslist, offerup, etc for used commercial equipment. I ended up building my walk-in a few months ago, and it only took about 2 weeks.... Highly recommend building one as you can tailor it to your needs. I just got an email today from CoolBot that they want to feature my cooler in their blog. Wasn't expecting that lol. Mine will get down to 34 deg in less than 5 minutes. Can control temp on smartphone... connects to home wifi and will give you alarm notification on your phone if there is a temp swing outside your set range.

Yup, 5 will git er done

That would make a great SBR and suppressor host. Nice AR GLWS

My family goes to Arizona Skin and Cancer Center in Queen Creek. No complaints. In fact I have an appt there on 1/31 http://skinandcancercenterofarizona.com/queen-creek-dermatology-office.htm

I have a Hunter Pro in 308. Great rifle and light as a feather…. Good luck! https://www.rokslide.com/forums/threads/kimber-montana-7mm-08.244907/ *edit - nevermind looks like he’s not interested in shipping.

There is a Montana on Rokslide for sale in 7mm-08. just saw it last night

Yeah probably head gasket or cracked head. When your truck is gobbling up antifreeze and oil that can ruin your cat converter which is why you have that code. Drain your oil and see if there is coolant in it. It will look like chocolate milk if there is. There probably is since your coolant level is down and oil went up.

I’m so confused

ditch the boots and go with a trail runner. Try on a pair of Hoka One One Speedgoat 4’s. best trail shoe i’ve worn and I’ve worn a lot. Altra’s are good too. They have so much padding your foot won’t get beat up, yet very flexible I have some minor plantar fasciitis. Similar symptoms as you I went to the foot doc and he said my bands are tight and I need to work on stretching. https://www.hoka.com/en/us/mens-trail/speedgoat-4/194715327986.html?source=shoppingsite_PLA_1106528-FPBL-10EE&kpid=1106528-FPBL-10EE&utm_source=google&utm_medium=pla&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIj56LhpiJ9QIVSxitBh3qcQBpEAQYASABEgIbq_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

I do all my own butchering and processing… in the past i’ve gone straight from the field to butcher table to freezer. I want to hang and age the deer/elk from now on and was looking at different options…. cool bot, used commercial fridge… the cheapest and most space saving option is a used large (20 cu ft+) upright freezer from craigslist or offerup. Does anyone out there do this, and will a quartered elk fit in one? I might need 2. I would use a temp controller like a Inkbird to keep meat from freezing and set temps around 36°. My thoughts are to drill some holes through the top of the unit and but some threaded eye bolts through to hang hooks then seal the holes with spray foam.

I have 31 venison kielbasa hanging in the cooler overnight. they’ll be in the smoker tomorrow.

$200 for each stamp (each suppressor)

My first took 9 mos… 2nd took 5 mos. My buddy is still waiting, going on 14 months for him right now.

Silencer Shop has kiosks all over the valley. Do prints and all paperwork form kiosk. Upload photo form cell phone. easy peasy

Thanks saw that one. He has many interested already. Far from me

6’4” bed. Thanks let me know what you got!

thanks. slim pickins for sure

All done except for outside corner moulding and foil tape on inside seams. Dropped to 36° in less than 10 min.

I have been aging midwest whitetail for the past 20 years. To me, it make a big difference in tenderness and i like the aged flavors. But to each their own! I grilled up a few of the Venison brats for lunch today and had a couple snack sticks. They turned out great!

Just a progress update in case anyone in future does a similar project

I also have spring compressors you can borrow if you need them. I converted my folk’s big suv from airbags to coils due to the bags being warn. I don’t have a Tundra, but don’t they have struts in front? You don’t need spring compressors to change a strut. Just remove and replace the whole unit. Buy new struts with new springs already installed is the easiest way.

I’ve never used them, but I stumbled across Gilbert Butchery the other day… maybe give them a shot? https://gilbertbutchery.com/game-processing/

We grow lots of veggies, make cheese, etc. So boxes of veggies, aging cheese and other stuff will go in there year round. Not to mention i went in on a beef share this year and will be getting lots of beef in March. Basically why I decided on this instead of just hanging in fridge or freezer I could have used it today… 85 brats and 25 lbs of venison snack sticks ready to smoke. I need the cooler to put this in. Won’t fit in fridge.

Ceiling, floor and walls are all made out of the same thing. 2” foam board (2 layers for 4” total). For the floor I put foil backed OSB on top of the foam board to make it better to walk on. Cool Bot says you need a minimum of R25 insulation. These boards are R13.1 and I doubled them up for R26.2 I will be putting down a solid piece of sheet vinyl onto the door for easy cleanup of blood, etc.
