Well, hell! I'm in Springfield, Mo right now. Someone get me "his address" and I'll swing through and see if he is still around there.

As much time as you spend in the hospitals for work, would you really wanna spend your off time there too? No offense, but TB ain't exactly Glass Joe.

Strange story of the Stolen (Then returned) Fatwood

Ok, so I just got back a few days ago from an 11 day camping trip with the family. We went out to the high desert here in Oregon. Anyway, a bit of backstory first.

In April while at BeckerWest I collected a plastic grocery bag full of fatwood and that ended up going into the camp gear. Now fast-forward to just a few days ago and that bag with all that fatwood sat out near the fire pit with the rest of the fire making stuff and wood. Well, on day 7 I was getting ready to make a fire and looked around for the fatwood......it was gone. Looked all arond the campsite and through all my sh-tuff...gone, plastic bag and all. Well, I was pissed, it had to have been taken by some other campers nearby I surmised, but I wasn't going to go point fingers. So, on day 8 I went out looking for more fatwood. No luck (actually I didn't try that hard, there were plenty of old stumps around). So, on we suffered using tinder and such to light the fires. And I bitched and moaned everytime that my fatwood got ganked by someone. I mean, my feelings were really hurt. Who the hell steals that kind of sh/t right?

Well, as fortune would have it, on the moring of day 11 (the day we were leaving) all that fatwood (looked like nearly every piece) was sitting out near the fire pit all lined up nice in row (of course no plastic bag). I was mystified as to what the F was going on (but glad I got the fatowood back).

Anyway, we suspected a dumbassed kid from the next campsite took it sometime in during the night, then had no idea what the hell he had and brought the wood back. (good thing he didn't wake me or I would of shot his ass...creaping into a campsite at night? really?)

Sorry no pics of the lined up fatwood, I scarfed it up and threw it in the truck.

Off topic a bit: My daughter saw me smelling it a few times and commented that, "Dad's got his crack-wood!!" Love that stuff!!

Very strange, indeed. "Crack-wood", that's awesome!

Was really pleased my Primus Express (with piezo) nested in the MSR Titan Kettle along with the appropriate canister.

The piezo igniter fired it up on the first try. Boil at 3 minutes. Hard rolling boil by 4.5 minutes.

These stoves are now available at closeout/overstock prices. They are well worth the cash. Good, wide, stable base similar to the Coleman Peak1.
 
is that the 4 dollar..... Ultralight Backpacking Canister Camp Stove with Piezo Ignition 3.9oz ????/
 
If you know where to buy a Primus Express for four bucks, please send me a link.
I'll buy a bag of them and put four or five in every room of my house. Sort of like cats.
 
uh .... ok, im not sure its the same... thats why im asking... but ill send a link now.
 
Link sent... let me know if its good, I will order one too if the thing is quality. I been debating but i thought the price was an indication of the quality. despite over 600 good reviews ?
 
Nope, that's the chinese one. 1066vik has one though, and they work great from what I remember him saying.
 
BK5 back available again... I guess the guy changed his mind lmao

Cheapest i can find the 5 is 80 bucks... I listed it at 70 and its new.... Is this not a good deal? I was emailed and asked to sell it for 60 because i dont have the box???
 
Samsquanch!

I wouldn't show up alone! I'm crazy, I'm not THAT stupid!

Biscuit, that looks like a nice set up. I'm pretty happy with my pocket rocket by MSR. It just works which is what I was looking for.

Worldwood, didn't you JUST get that 5? What did you do with the box?!?
 
Lmao I have the box it came in. But it was bent up a little in shipping and i noticed the box was actually for a BK7. I didnt want any panties in a bunch over the quality of the box, or the fact that the side of the box says BK7... so i just said it comes with NO box, to save a headache later.

Heck i have 7 or 8 becker boxes here... I could throw it in any of them... but none of them say BK5 on the box.... I just didnt want the hassle. No box is easier, even though id ship it in the box it came with, no one can complain since it is listed with NO box.

Still, 1/4 off the price because the box is missing, seems retarded IMO anyway.
