    Coffee Percolators

    Why do you think most cowboys have mustaches. They use them to strain out the coffee grounds.

    I just ordered the 12 assortment pack on Amazon. I am looking forward to the Portuguese flavor as well as the hot and spicy and jalapeno flavors. Turkey???maybe not so much.

    To clean the engine compartment or not? Your thoughts?

    I routinely clean my Jeep XJ. The only thing I have to watch out for is the throttle position sensor. They are way to sensitive to moisture. Over on NAXJA.org I have seen dozens crap out due to water. They even have issues if you put in hood vents.

    Dealing with wasps while cooking.

    WD40 is great on nests and sprays several feet with the little tube attached. It kills them virtually instantly and takes care of the larvae as well. I have problems with them building nests in the door jambs and behind the mirrors on my Jeep Cherokee. My son in law used wasp spray on them...

    Anyone convert an old teardrop into something that can handle off-road conditions?

    Inverter needs-how much

    Too bad I'm not home or I could drop you the cable in the mail from my spares/junk box. Check if you have a local welding/gas supplier. They sell short cut off chunks for pretty much the cost of the copper.
