    First Time Build

    Hello Wet Spaniel! So far, so good! All welders have to start somewhere...so just keep at it! Good advice given by @SmokinEdge about carefully watching the weld puddle. Just try to keep the end of the wire at the leading edge of that puddle and, as SmokingEdge said, trace your arc back and...

    Anyone Heard From Robert Lately?

    Good to hear Ryan. I'm glad all is well - and I can certainly understand a busy life affecting his activity here...but Robert's presence is missed when he's not around! Red

    What is the best album, or CD that you've ever owned?

    I grew up loving both Rock and Country. It's my humble opinion the greatest Rock studio album (non-live and non-greatest hits) is Boston's self-titled debut album. If you include anthology or greatest hits albums, I'd pick The Eagles Greatest Hits 1971-1975 And hands down, my favorite...

    Interesting Testing on Charcoal from America's Test Kitchen

    Doh!! :emoji_astonished: :emoji_anguished::emoji_confounded: Just ignore me...I apparently can't read lol! Charles, I thought you had posted a pic of the B&B 17.6 lb. Oak Briquettes - which are definitely $9.99 at my Academy. The bag you actually posted - the 20 lb. bag of B&B Lump w/...

    Interesting Testing on Charcoal from America's Test Kitchen

    I'm with you there! I avoid Costco and/or Sam's at all costs. And Academy stores around here have the B&B I like priced at or below any competitors in my area. Red

    Interesting Testing on Charcoal from America's Test Kitchen

    That makes sense to me! Mostly what I look for in my kettle fuel is consistency and a screaming hot fire. In my gravity feed smoker, it’s mostly about the consistency. The one thing I do like about lump in the kettle is, after I’m finished cooking, I can choke the fire out and reuse the...

    Lump Charcoal Soot/Dust

    Sounds like you solved your problem. Most folks would recommend a couple different fire starting products: Weber Starter Cubes (which are made a paraffin) or those tumbleweeds already mentioned. Another option: I have a weed burner torch that attaches to a propane tank. I've found it to...
