Here within the New Madrid fault area, it just might be big,
Ha, with the winds the past few days, maybe so. Lol.
My stove top temps are not what I worry about. I use a thermal gun to measure the front of the stove around the cat probe screw. And I keep a...
Great grab, and a nice chisel tip too!
I am fortunate to have a dedicated three sided metal wood shed, that I store all flavors of wood: all sizes of rounds, plus longer pieces that are...
