if nobody takes it I'll hold onto it for you until haz-mat day. There's like a hundred different toxic substances in those things

[jerryg79]

or you could put it in the jack in the box dumpster....

[agjohn02]

thats what i do with all my used oil

[uglyota]

no you don't, you put it in open 5-gallon buckets in the middle of Brandon's shop, just like he and Jordan do. Then I put lids on them and recycle it :D

[Seth]

so when we "gravity checked" tvs and monitors at the dorm that was no good?

[agjohn02]

no you don't, you put it in open 5-gallon buckets in the middle of Brandon's shop, just like he and Jordan do. Then I put lids on them and recycle it :D


actually, none of that is mine. i take mine to the place behind the police station. brandon and jordan hide their oil until they run out of containers. all that oil is what i found scattered about, under the bug, under the sailboat etc while cleaning out the shop.

so, you took care of them? good, you dont even wanna know what brandon does with them...

[uglyota]

yeah I know what he does with it, that's why I recycle it. I only took 15 gallons this last time. I could only find 3 lids. I'll get the rest next time

[Seth]

eric you should probably recycle mine too

[uglyota]

Oil or monitor? The next haz-mat collection day is October 17 I think

[mark]

Brandon throws the uncovered bucket on the mowing trailer in the morning. And somehow, without fail, all the oil evaporates because the bucket is always empty when he gets back to the shop.
Then Rinse and Repeat.

I take mine to town and pour it down the storm drain, that way the city doesn't have to spend as much lubricating the pipes. See, I am tryin to save the taxpayers money. :gigem:

Actually, we used to use it on the round baler chains, and mix it with the diesel in the incenerator we used to "take care of" the dead chickens at the broiler houses. Now we are even more eco-friendly with the compost shed we built. That stuff is the best fertilizer I have ever seen, but boy howdy does it smell the first week or so after the first good rain. When we do our yearly clean out of the houses, we sell a good bit of that to a corn farmer down the road, who in-turn sells his corn to Sanderson Farms, who uses it to grind up to make feed for our chickens. Now thats recycling at it's finest. :gigem:

dang ed, you're practically a hippie! Is your turban tie-dyed? :flipoff2:

Used Motor Oil And A Mop Is A Great Way To Keep Dirt From Sticking To The Inside Of A Pan

[Doug Krebs]

I've always thought about using old oil as bar oil on a chain saw. The only problem I could see is if metal was in the oil. If you let it sit long enough I would think most of it would settle to the bottom. We've never used a chain saw enough to bother with this.

[uglyota]

Old gear oil maybe, but motor oil is way too thin. And bar and chain oil is cheap

I thought most chainsaws just use 30wt or similar?

[uglyota]

I'm sure that bar and chain oil is way more viscous than 10w30. The only real danger in using it though is of it running out too fast. Good saws tend to run out of gas with just a little oil left. if the oil was too thin it might run out before you ran out of gas and burn up a chain/bar, thus trying to save a few bucks on a gallon of bar and chain oil (that will last most people years) ends up costing you $30 to replace them.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

90w always worked for us, it is a little slow when you start, but once the saw gets a little warm, it really sticks to the chain
