Crowder is out of commission I do believe. One of them big women he so loved must of finally got the best of him.

That's about the time pressure treating went to shyt.
Cost me plenty warranting twisted split and warped lumber. I finally quit using it completely

He's still on here with a different name and he's all business now.

He musta finally caught one of those big women then--life liberty and the happiness of pursuit all changes when that happens.

We did the home made creosote thing when I was a kid--pressure, not vacuum. I don't want no more part of it--dang lucky we didn't blow ourselves up with that nasty stinkin mess. All it woulda took was one stuck gauge or thermometer and that big old tank would have come from together.

If he's back under a new name I would have never guessed it, crowder was a unique personality.

I chat with him once in a while, has never mentioned being back on here but he may be. I have met him and he is a super nice guy.

I wish he would come back. I never had the pleasure of reading him.

I make up 15 gallons at a time. I have a Vat for dipping posts in, made from an old tank cut in two,8 feet long. Works great.Here's my recipe. 5 gallons of coal tar roofing or driveway sealer, 5 gallons of Diesel Fuel 5 gallons of burned Diesel oil,2 lbs of feed salt Stir well with an old shovel.
You can simply dip about 2 feet of your post in a bucket of this formula, or dip the entire post in the vat.Soak for a couple hours.For use on boards, simply get an old pump sprayer, or use a paint roller. Wear long sleeve clothing. On some board fencing, I've poured in a gallon of cheaper oil based black paint in the mixture to help it flow.Lasts for years.In some hot climates it may fade a little quicker. No liability written, expressed or implied. Check all local and State laws, before using. :shock:

What do you mean by burned diesel oil?

What do you mean by burned diesel oil?

You know when you go to change the oil in your tractor and you drain the old oil out so you can put new oil in? The old oil that you drained out is burned diesel oil.
