My old bbq grill died... burned through ...
So.... Got a new hibachi style cast iron grill :D
Can't wait to put it to use.
 
I replaced the burner in the very old, gas grill. Then I added a universal rotisserie kit to it. The punch line was/is, if I load a whole chicken on the spit, (that was the big idea), the new burner, being slightly taller than the old burner, places the bird in direct contact with the flame. This makes for extremely short cook times and almost violent temperature for cooking!
PERFECT for burnt skin chicken recipes! (Like it or not!)

It was either that or spend several hundred bucks on a new gas grill... :rolleyes:
 
Started fasting again. Eight o'clock makes two days. Gunna see how long I can go. Not been too stressful so far. Lost eight pounds before I started fasting. Down to 267 from 275 two days ago. Going to try to get down to 225, maybe less. Tired of carrying all this weight.
 
Was going to go to the cabin this weekend, but she got rained out.
I went to the lake just north of Kansas city this weekend - the storm Saturday at noon was impressive. We got close to 2" of rain in about 45 min.
A couple other showers, but nothing bad
Sunday night the front passed over and Monday was warm with significantly lower humidity.
Got home about 9:15 last night, got everything out of the truck and into the house, then crashed

Four days and counting. 264 yesterday, 261 today.
 
I weighed 254 friday before heading off to camp and 246 when I got home last night.
I suspect most of that was water weight -- there was a lot of sweating involved due to high humidity and activity levels, although i also skipped lunch every day.
 
WTG Tayal. Nice trailing point. Even fits my hand. I like it:



Great Knife judging by the pictures! Love the lines in the design, handles look comfortable and sheath looks good too.
Would be nice to hear how you like the sk 85 steel, what does it compare to ? 1095?
 
IIRC, sk85 is a Japanese tool steel, equivalent to 1085.

EDIT: Just looked it up.

SK5 Carbon Steel (SK85 Material)​


SK5 steel (SK85 material) is a carbon tool steel commonly used in Japan. After quenching and tempering, it has high hardness and good wear resistance, but the hardness decreases at high temperature. It is often used as a material for tools such as hammers and saws. SK85 is the name of the new JIS G4401 standard to replace the old name SK5. But the name SK5 is still widely used in Japan.


Material SK85 Meaning (Designation)​


  • “S” means “steel”,
  • “K” means “Kougu”, the word “tool” in Japanese, and
  • 85 denotes 0.85% carbon content.
 
255lbs this morning. Seems like after the first 2 days had passed, that I'm losing 3lbs per day. 8 tonight makes 6 days with no food, no vitamins, etc, just water. So far, the right side body swelling I was experiencing, has gone down dramatically, the "crusties" in my eyes I've had for months now have disappeared, my copd coughing has virtually stopped, not to mention the needed weight loss. I honestly am not craving food. However, food 3 times a day, breaks up the day a little. It's the boredom it creates from not eating. I've had mild stomach aches the last few days, but that's to be expected. Usually, drinking more water makes it go away.
 
Yes, no problem. Mowing this morning did kick my ass. Havent felt too good since then.
