DrB Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Yes .... I just lit my grill with charcoal lighter fluid. Also started a burn pile on the farm with a used tire and some diesel fluid. Now I'm fixing to start a brush pile on fire in back of the house. No wind so the used motor oil is going to help things going... Wanted to wait for earth day but the conditions are right this day.. The tree Huggers will be crapping their pants as I also have several Black Walnut trees ready for harvest also. Dave.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huaco Kid Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 About mid-Ohio, right next to the turnpike, is an asphalt plant. I love that smell. (I wouldn't want to live within 20 miles of the place, on lazy-wind days, but I love that smell.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and even though I do not smoke, the Naptha smell, I carry a Zippo when I am out and about and on the farm. Never know when some brush may need lighting up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NPTim Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I love the smell of burnt JP4. Well, as long as it’s not mixed with burning flesh and hair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the Fuels Officer at Sheppard AFB in Texas for a while. We passed gas to 200+ sorties of T-37's, T-38's and HH-43's 5 days a week for three years. I've had quite enough of that stuff. Actually volunteered to go to SEA to get away from it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From left to right. 1: A "Art Deco" form the way back. 2: Rounded top and bottom from the past. 3: This one is usually in my pocket. Had since was a boy. Well worn like me. 4: This one I carry sometimes, dates back when I was a young man 5: My Mom's Art Deco I found in a drawer a few years ago. I do not care for the picture or slogan crap ones. Steel and Flint only is correct. Dave.. Edit: Had to switch #3 and #4. description. It's late and I made a mistake but corrected now.

jfost11 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I spent an hour or so yesterday oiling this table up before I realized I'd better open a window and get the fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
