Hate to sound like a tight wad but.........
Has anyone ever made an ice rod out of a spare soft water rod they have lying around?
I've got some ol' piece in the garage I'm thinking about chopping. I mean if it doesn't work, no big deal.
Just wondering. I've never seen a post on this.
Tight lines~~~~~~
It so worth it though. I've noticed that even after I quit 17 months ago, I'm still crabby and snappy too. But I think my wife and child are getting use to it. I have been able to catch myself before spouting off and that does WONDERS for our relationship........ Keep it up man!
I quit Copenhagen 17 months ago after shoving that heavenly garbage in my face for 25 years. I did the laser thing and it worked for me because I WANTED to quit. I think that is the key, you have to want to. If you have the desire, you can do it. Triggers be damned! I still to this day would love a dip after dinner, on the ride to work, FISHING!!!! Etc etc
GODSPEED!
One of my favorite holidays. Gonna eat like its my last meal. It's gonna be repulsive!
But....
I'm going to thank God for his blessings. For the family that I have and for the continued prosperity for which he has graced me.
All the best!
Nice work ch312!
Building them is a blast!
Using them makes it all worth it.
Gonna try to smoke some Boston butts (I love saying that) over the weekend. Ill post some food porn if I do
Happy Thanksgiving!
I built an "ugly drum smoker" using a food grade 55 gallon drum and an old propane grill. The replacement grates for weber charcoal grills fit perfectly inside the I.D. Of the drum. Use nuts and bolts as pegs to hold the grates as shelves. Using a 1 1/2" hole saw, I put holes in the bottom for air. Placed the propane burner in the bottom of the barrel and cut a sheet steel circle to cover it. Leaving an inch or so around the edges for heat to rise past. Cut an access panel in the side to place hickory chunk and to keep my hydrator full of apple juice. On the lid, I used a scrap brass ball valve from work as a damper to control the air/smoke flow. I'm soaking my iPhone with saliva just describing it!! I found ALOT of info on the web to build this and I have a full fab shop and machine shop at my disposal which makes it easy. Not to mention I come from a long line of technical red necks..... MERICA!
