There are a couple of things in the pic that I use a lot. The Vortex and the little analog timer.
Colin1230 I have never heard of a Vortex before. It has almost 2000 five-star ratings on Amazon. I wish I had known about that years ago or at least before I gave away my Weber. That would have been a game changer. And you can get grates with a hole in the middle?
Where did you get it?
Thanks Sven. I never knew there was such a thing.I should add one. Non-stick aluminum foil is completely underrated. It’s amazing. I use it all the time especially when reheating something or making Red Lobster biscuits with cubed sharp cheddar and bacon bits. When the cheese oozes out it bakes on the foil and gets crispy. Non-stick makes it effortless to remove.

Just make sure you use the non-stick side. Only one side has it. If you ever foil a brisket or a shoulder/butt and it has stuck on the grate because of meat goo and when you pulled it off it tore a hole in the foil spilling the juice, lay this down and that won’t happen. Again, make sure you’re using the correct side.Thanks Sven. I never knew there was such a thing.

Evo Sprayer on Amazon. The red ones on sale right now. Looking it seems to have gotten some bad reviews but mine works perfectly and had it a few years.Where did you get it?
Thanks . I'm afraid I'd give a whole new meaning to " Went down with the ship "I really like the skill and quality you put into your projects. It's obvious that you have high skills. (We really need help in the boat shop. )
I have a flex shaft carver , and a couple sets of carving tools . My Dad did carving , and was pretty good at it . The 3D stuff blows my mind .Flex shaft carver.
Yup . Use it here all the time , and it's an issue when I run out . Last year it was on the out of stock list around here . So now I have 4 boxes in the pantry and one in the cabinet .Non-stick aluminum foil is completely underrated. I

LOL . I saw that the other day . That's that's awesome .My new gadget on its way!
These work great for larger concave work, they come in many styles and course to fine. They're for 4 1/2" grinders. You can weld a bolt on the end of a solid square, thread that into your grinder handle hole, and clamp assembly in a vise. Rotation away! You can see it cutting, much like a lathe.
My metalsmith buddy uses them to make cavities in the tops/bottoms of big logs set on the floor for forming all kinds of rough shapes before he gets the intricate work done. Think leaves and petals of flowers.
