And for a home/cabin,garage even, this one looks really sharp and was well done and I approve. lol

i'm gonna build one.
get a bunch of peyote,some birkenstocks
and a book of indian lore.
then i will be one with the earth goddess/mother gaia.

Good idea...

...and let's all get together for a combined day of shooting and hollering too.

Should make the local natives a bit uneasy...

...as we enjoy our festive celebrations.

billy: Sir; uranium would be bad; real bad; a most common source of 'radon' entrampment. Leaching and then a ''strong'' cancer suspect

Now? if you could? It would be one hot fire


Uranium metal has three allotropic forms:[9][edit] Applications

[edit] Military


Depleted uranium is used by various militaries as high-density penetrators.


The major application of uranium in the military sector is in high-density penetrators. This ammunition consists of depleted uranium (DU) alloyed with 1–2% other elements. At high impact speed, the density, hardness, and flammability of the projectile enable destruction of heavily armored targets. Tank armor and the removable armor on combat vehicles are also hardened with depleted uranium plates. The use of DU became a contentious political-environmental issue after the use of DU munitions by the US, UK and other countries during wars in the Persian Gulf and the Balkans raised questions of uranium compounds left in the soil (see Gulf War Syndrome).[8]

I've got the modern-day version of that cooking wonder...

...and the makers purport that it'll burn anything except Yak dung.

Spent the day out on the lake ice fishing today...

...and took along a StoveTec tri-fuel rocket stoke, plus a few dead branches from a tree on the shore, to stay warm.

The stove did a good job generating enough heat to fend off the cold...

...and the cost for fuel was zero, except for energy needed to break off branches and put them in the stove.

The way it should be
