The long flakers are called ishi sticks, and the pads are unique in design as best as I can tell. We shall see if the work well tomorrow.
I also burned out the rocket mass forge trying to finish the one bopper I made. The inner burn chamber is a puddle of melted metal on my brick forge bed. I can hopefully pick up a 55 gallon barrel soon so I can make it right.
Also, the bearings appear to be going out on my radial arm saw. It's starting to howl pretty bad.
What a night!

🙁 Sorry you had to deal with so many unfortunate events in one night.

It's what makes life interesting. I am used to keeping things put together with 'bubble gum and duct tape' as one forum member put it.
These types of things happen to cobbled together junk.
I still have 10 fingers and a garage… it's all good! Me and my shop lived to cobble another day.
Speaking of cobbling… I need to work on that pair of boots I have…

Darn. I'm seeing $60-70 for a "new one", although these guys recondition them, so you might be able to talk them out of an unconditioned one…

I have my 55 gallon drum. A nice heavy one. I just need $20 in duct work to bring the beast back alive!
At least you didn't need the heat as much this year!
