I had one in my first '77 trailer, that thing was the cats meow. No power required just convection heat. If you add a small 12 volt computer fan, it's a very quiet way of moving the heat down to the floor.

Camped there with my father around 1963, lots of panfish in there.

Nice to see an end product that looks super nice and knowing you did it yourself.

Nice work Brian.

Trying hard to wrap my head around this one, I would have thought the jars would explode without any liquid in them. I'll have to try a small batch next time I do something that requires the same time in the canner.

When you run out of electrons on the lake, are you going to try and stuff the Pink Bunny into your battery. Gov't keeps telling us to use less power but all you see is mountains of electric powered junk coming across the Pacific to fill our dumps. Might be ok for very small inland lakes, even then only useful for maybe 6-7 months of the year.

I also made some apple sauce jars and carrots just to see how they turn out. Worked very well.

Ah, you beat me, lol.

Just follow the canning directions to a "T" and you'll be fine. Important thing is to leave that 1 inch open space at the top of the jar and do not screw the lids down like a gorilla. Barely finger tight, the steam has to escape from the jar during the process of canning, The lids will suck themselves down tight, I don't retighten the rings afterwards, I've never had one pop open. Also be aware not to put hot jars into water in the pressure canner that's cooler than the jars if you are doing a hot load.

Yes, no roasting required.

Yes, pressure cooked, deboned, skin off, with broth, hot packed, 100 mins at 11 psi.

Have to agree, a 1 litre or quart size mason jar is a lot. I use 1 litre jars of canned turkey to make 4 turkey pot pies at a time. 250's are my go to for canned salmon and rainbow.

If you can get it in the can, go for it, lol.

Hahahaha, ah, nooo. That would be like getting a freebie at the local floosie house.

Sears was another horrible one to do that, priced themselves out of business.

That goes for a lot of stuff they can sell on "sales" at 70-80% off and not loose any money.

Well it's not a flux capacitor, that's for sure.

Ye olde oil drip, brings back memories when the range shacks had the old drippers.

Don't know if you're aware, those non vented heaters tend to put out a lot of moisture you don't need in such a confined space.

These are the ones I got made in Japan so not the chicom stuff. they have the same power specs and last just as long as the original Canon ones. https://www.amazon.ca/Wasabi-Power-Battery-Canon-NB-13L/dp/B00VXO5B56 Also has a 3 year warranty.

Amazon, got a 2 pack battery and charger for my Canon camera for about $25, did the same thing for my Go Pro.

Merc dealer every town and many many Merc mechanics. To try and keep them running.

Yamaha by a long lead. Honda a tight second. they don't call Mercs black anchors for nothing, they're even too cheap to throw in the anchor line.

I think it's time this practice was abolished, no need to play this type of game with nature just for profit and bragging rights.

I haven't found any flocks of migrating chickens yet, lol
