Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
That OU logo isn't one they used in the past. There's an older logo that looks like it, but it isn't the same.DSafetyGuy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 11:36 amJust buy the fucking Ohio University koozies, already.Sabo wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 11:35 amI love that old Milwaukee Bucks logo.DSafetyGuy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 11:33 am I just saw this website as a pop-up ad and no regrets other than I cannot rationalize spending as much as I would like to: Vintage Brand

I think I have found out what I am doing this afternoon. Browsing this site for gift ideas.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Not that it isn't on brand, but clicking through to that main page there are at least 7 different logos depicting Native Americans in various degrees of caricature plus multiple instances of the old "Southern gentleman" Ole Miss Rebels logo.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Belated thank. I’m pretty sure I bought the kindle edition that day (a little less than 2 years ago) and finally just read it this month. What a great read, on a subject that I don’t think I’ve spent time on since HS and even the “highlights” were hazy.Rams Fanny wrote: ↑Fri Aug 24, 2018 5:04 pm For History buffs the best WWI single volume history I've ever read, "A World Undone", is a kindle daily deal at $1.99. I guarantee it was leaned on heavily for the Hardcore History WWI pod.
The disregard for the value of human life was just staggering.
Going to try another WWI book, The First World War: A Complete History by Martin Gilbert. Meyer referenced in his notes, and Amazon has it available for free via prime.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Has anyone gotten a Solo Stove or similar portable/storable fire pit? Trying to figure out what would work to keep the deck open for the colder weather.
Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
I've had one of these for about 7-8 years, and it's worked very well. I don't think it's wise to put a portable fire pit on a deck, though.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Bought my folks a restaurant propane heater type thing for their deck in Pittsburgh. Worked great. Bought it from walmart.
Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Is that because of the heat or possible embers? Related ... does this go for charcoal grills as well or not because its self-contained?
Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Both?
I've had more than a few embers fall out of the fire pit and onto the ground. If you put some sand in the bottom of the fire pit, that will serve as a heat shield and keep the heat away from the deck.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Yes please be careful on wooden decks. Lots of house fires start this way. I haven’t heard about the sand thing but at the very least you’ll need something fireproof under it if it’s open flame.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Hmmm ... it explicitly calls itself deck-safe with the stand and I've always assumed companies go the opposite way to ensure no liability even when only human error could make it unsafe.
Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
I can't speak for Landmann, but my experience with my fire pit is embers will fall out multiple times while in use.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
That looks fine to me.
It seems to me that heat would be a bigger potential problem than embers. It takes a lot for embers to set something solid on fire, and presumably you'd notice if it were happening.
We used a regular saucer-shaped fire pit on our front deck before ... then realized the heat had blackened the deck. Now we keep a couple of bricks from an old wood stove underneath it, and it's fine.
For me a bigger fear is embers blowing out from the deck into the woods. So we don't use it when it's windy (and now open fires are banned around here anyway.) But I doubt that'd be a big concern in the suburbs.
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.

I just bought one of these, hooks up to a standard grill propane tank that fits in the base.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Everyone should buy this right now. That’s a great deal and one of my top 5 items in the kitchen. And it didn’t even need to be heavily vetted for that pick. I’ve had a great interest in thermodynamics since childhood.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
That's fucked up. I started to write more, specifically about it being a top 5 non-necessity, but then I felt I'd have to caveat away what counts as necessities and it became too much so I didn't. I ordered the infrared one when that was $25 less on sale two weeks ago for the kids to give me for Christmas.
Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
But now that we're already doing this, I guess if you get a fully functional base level kitchen but then can upgrade five things, the thermapen would totally be one. That, chef's knife, baking steel, coffee grinder and dutch oven, off the top of my head.

Re: Swamp Shopping Guide
Ha! If it came with a clip, I'd buy it right now. I need a better meat thermometer (readings all over the map on Thanksgiving), and a better thermometer for brewing. I like a clip so I don't have to hold it while trying to rapidly bring the temp down when I finish brewing. Gotta get that rapid cold crash, y'all!
