    1. Husk and clean all the corn. Place in the bottom of a squeaky-clean large insulated picnic cooler.
    2. Pour the boiling water over the corn (2 quarts of boiling water per dozen ears of corn). Close the lid and let set for 30 minutes.
    3. Drain the water out from the plug and keep the lid closed.
    4. This will keep the corn warm for about 2 hours.

    As the directions stated above. It doesn't overcook the corn because it is not boiling

    Keeps for a couple hours and is just as good as the first piece.

    I've got about 2 inches of clearance for the tires, with 3500lb axles and springs I should be okay, my buddy has a similar set up except a 5x8 and loaded it with 2 yards of gravel and said it was fine, it'll mostly be a firewood trailer anyways, no heavy loads like that lol, I'll bet that was great fun!

    Mower blower almost fixed... cover can't get put on because bolt shoulders are rounded over - I need a welder
    Wheelbarrow taken half apart, the wood is all rotten, new handles are ready but.... can't disassemble and save the old hardware because bolt shoulders are rounded over - I need a welder

    Daughter's headboard needs a quick sand before a coat or three of poly - I need time

    I am a welder :p. Look on craigslist should be able to find somebody decent close by, that should only be a couple bucks to tack a piece of steel to so you have something to grab

    Haha, while I'm no "welder" I meant I needed the machine. This is just a couple tacks to hold the bolts in place, I could handle that. My buddy, who is a welder, helped me out on the patch job, I did the 2 easy sides and he did the rest. Nice skill to learn for sure.

    I actually have a gas powered beast that I'm sure doesn't run. It was free, so I grabbed it hoping I would resurrect it eventually. Maybe one day I'll be "working on that today"....
