Hello all, it is that season again. That season when Mother nature rears her ugly side and we all pay the price. With our electricity bills that is. One easy way to save yourself some shock when opening that heating bill is to insulate your windows. Not only is it cheap, and easy, but it will save you quite a bit of money over the course of the winter.
Rural King recommends our Duck Products Patio Door Shrink Insulation Kit (SKU: 027000193). The Duck brand indoor patio/large window kit contains everything you need to insulate one standard two panel patio door. The kit contains one sheet of 84-by-120-inch crystal clear plastic film, one roll of 1/2-by-432-inch double-sided tape and six alcohol surface wipes. Once taped to the door or window frame, the crystal clear film heat shrinks with a blow dryer to seal out drafts and cold. For indoor use on painted or varnished wood, aluminum and vinyl surfaces only.

It is hunting season again, and there is no worse feeling than finding that trophy winner and letting him slip through your fingers because he spotted you from afar. Make sure that the camouflage you are wearing from head to toe is not for naught by camouflaging your field ammo can.
First thing you will need to do is obtain an ammo can. Rural King recommends the all plastic Plano Molding Field Ammo Box 1312 or the Plano Extra Large Field Box 1812 to keep your precious ammo out of the elements. SKU: 031801244 SKU: 031801666
Next you will want to sand down you ammo box, making sure the surface is smooth of nicks and sanded down so that the spray paint will adhere well. Make sure to wipe away any sand dust or any other dirt or particles that may be present.
Now you will want to purchase some natural colored spray paint, forest greens and browns work really well. SKU: 049213515 SKU: 049212671 SKU: 049212642
Now that you have your spray paint, open the ammo can and lay it flat, if you are going to be working over a surface other than grass you will want to put down some type of covering, flattened cardboard boxes work very well.
Now shake the spray paint can and start spraying, keeping an even distance from the ammo can surface to get an even coating and avoid lingering in one spot too long. Spray in a somewhat random pattern, you need a blotchy sort of final product without any recognizable pattern.
Give ample time for the paint to dry in a well ventilated area.
Fill your ammo can with whatever your ammo of choice is and Happy, Safe Hunting!
