An easy fix with a sandwich of fiberglass tape and epoxy. The fiberglass and epoxy will stop further progression of the crack and add strength. Simple support plates will probably work but don't necessarily stop the crack.

Edit: I found a similar torch made by Iwatani that cost $35 but has a much higher rating and satisfaction quotient. Their products are top drawer and for anything using flame I am happy to spend a bit more. It will dovetail nicely with my sous vide cooker, not to mention that it will light...

That's a good idea! I bought 2 cases of butane canisters when all of the tariff bullshit started up so I have about a 2 years supply by now. I cook with butane every day on an Iwatani stove so the torch would be a good compliment to the kitchen hardware.

After 3 1/2 hours it was still too hot to touch. Those pellets have some real energy!

More on the Ohuhu stove. I am doing some tests on it to determine if I am going to keep it and use it or give it away. Today I tried burning pellets in it instead of twigs and am impressed with the results. I started the stove at 3:55 today but had some issues getting the pellets to light...

I tried them of course and they said it was no longer available for order.

Dean, thanks for the tip on NRS! I ordered it from them with free shipping. After almost a dozen dead ends with attempting to order, NRS handled it in about a minute and have already emailed me confirmation and an arrival date. I don't know why it suddenly became so difficult for Amazon and...

I tried all of those on Amazon and got the "will not ship to this address" on all of them. The strange thing is that I have had HH-66 shipped to me twice before by Amazon....

A couple of years ago I attached a Scotty glue on mount on my pontoon boat using HH-66 adhesive. I just ordered another glue on mount for the other side of the boat but can no longer obtain the HH-66 adhesive by mail order. I have tried to find alternatives but they all say they can't ship to my...

.....was the start of the Battle of Midway, one of the most decisive battles in American naval history and the battle that irrevocably broke Japan's eastern expansion in the Pacific. It had been planned as a trap for our navy to destroy what was left of our fleet after Pearl Harbor and establish...

Way to go Knicks-throw out the baby with the bath water! Jeez.....!

No link yet but I think I can find one. Bear in mind that I haven't field tested it yet but am impressed by the concept. I hope to spend a few days in Montana this month and give it a real workout. Some of the new products I find are really amazing and represent some clear and forward...

I bought one of these out of curiosity last week after seeing about a hundred reviews of the Ohuhu or it's clones on YouTube. I certainly don't need another stove and don't intend to cook on it but a lot of people do. At $16.99 it was worth a giggle if nothing else but I have fun with it and...

Yeah, 165 would be pretty close to pork jerky! Around 140 is a good place to start and like everything else, there is a learning curve. Don't expect perfection on your first attempt but apply what you learn to the next one and so on. I am doing a pork tenderloin tomorrow and will vacuum seal it...

Since the day I put on my first Chinook I have never been on the water without it. It changed my lake fishing routine by forcing me to evaluate how much crap I carried in a vest and now instead of 5 fly boxes with over a thousand flies, I carry two that fit in the Chinook and notice that I...

I have kind of an off brand that I don't recommend. It is off by 12 degrees but since I have a Thermapen accurate thermometer I can deal with it and once it gets to the right temp it stays there. Some of these things have an app and are controlled by a smart phone. That seems pretty damned dumb...

Sous vide ribs soon! I put them in the bath at midnite Saturday and now, 36 hours later, they are coming out. They will be smoked for a couple of hours then sauced and seared over charcoal. I have some excellent 9.2% ale and potato salad to round things out. Happy Memorial Day.

:oops::oops::oops::oops::oops: If lights are killing me it is taking a damned long time! And remarkably, lights placed outside don't shine through my walls.....

There is something to having lights under the hood at night. I have 2 LuminAID solar powered lights, one of which goes under the hood every night I am camping. I have had so damned many problems with rodents in campsites and since I started using the LuminAID's I have had none. They are like the...

People must fall for that paint protectant scam, otherwise they wouldn't do it but I hope I don't know anyone dumb enough to pay hundreds for a wax job. What a sleaze attempt at some ill gotten gain.
