What is the reasoning supporting this? Can you summarize? I can't read until later.

Try putting them on a piece of tin foil then on to the smoker! Low fire for hours, dehydrate, then grind as usual. Wow! Be careful!

"WE HAVE THE MEATS" is seared into my brain. Maybe I should cut the cord?

Try mixing 2 heaping tablespoons of my world famous Trinidadian Habenero Sauce with 1/2 cup of mayo for a taste sensation. It's really not hot, I blanch, de-seed and vein the chilis. I sometimes use Mirxxle Whxp instead. I am uncouth from time to time.

Ahh.. Haggis. Can you please expound on the ripe, buried chicken business, it sounds promising. Thomas, get some new choppers if you are having trouble gnawing through pecan pie. Please...??? I have to get some bottom ones soon and may have to resort to Amaretto myself.

Moms are special, dear people. Charles, I said a prayer tonight for her, you and all your family. Scott.

I had to google this one. It sounds delishious! I even looked up lardon. I got the vin part but Coq I'm not so sure about.

I think you are right about the fence pliers. What you have with the second example may be an early pair of mig welding pliers. A gripper for the nozzel, a tip grabber onto'er and a file on the end for getting out stubborn sputterballs. I cant tell if it has a wire cutter for nipping the end or not. The striking parts might be for beating on/deforming the nozzel when all else fails. I may be wrong. A frankentool if there ever was one!

Now it gets interesting.... You called it up above, my friend! This one has a value added feature Rockstar, a saw for cutting away timbers or trapped appendages in the event of a cave-in.

Well, I never read the fine print/patent descriptions on these things, too convoluted and I start getting migraines. I personally think its a well thought out design, however, I would have made the tooth extraction hook on the handle end in a different fashion. Personal preferance. Nothing like an impacted tooth out on the range. I agree, the hinged spork must have been a game changer for it's time and probably propelled our friend Loudon to infamy. I am getting called to supper (it's frog leg night) so I will continue later...

Out putting up fence you say? Whip this baby out and go to work! These images are great fun, but I would like to collect the real thing! Like hens teeth... I shall google them George.

Good point Glenn, and probably why they all fizzled out as a going concern. With the exception of a large crescent wrench, which can do double duty as a hammer. In a pinch. Sometimes. Well....

In days gone by, if you needed it, Sears and Roebuck had it. All hand/horse/muscle powered though. Maybe thats the origination of some of these tools. You were so wore out from working, who wants to go looking for a tool? "Thar she is, attached right to my spud wrench" I wish you had pictures of those Roman eating utencils...

I know some manufacturers jumped on the bandwagon making these things. They were probably the pre-cursor to todays "multi tool". I might have to find and re-size and post some of the loony patents people came up with. Every concievable combination. I ran across one that had a knife, corkscrew, screwdriver and saw attached to one of those spiked "kaiser" helmets... It would be great to see real examples, if they ever actually got made. Who knows which way the wind may blow around here! It's a trick to get you to buy two of them. Don't fall for it.

I searched on google and looked about on IFI. I generaly have trip over something before I find it. Is there a thread for old weird combination tools such as this? Do you have one? It would be fun to see actual examples. I used to do patent searches and there were tons of "ideas". I suppose not many came into reality or have been melted down by now. Thanks.

I was in Belgium visiting my sister who was in the military, and never heard of this. I'll have to ask her why! I'll try it out...

I feel bad about my fries and mayo post! I was never introduced to this delicacey. Really. Never meant to offend...

It's getting complicated.

Oops.

Let's see... Indian, Japanese, Caribbean sauce. Anybody else have any input before I re-do the whole recipe?

I guess I'm confused a bit by the fries and mayo thing. Is that a live for the moment statement? What one does to ones self is one thing.....

I for one don't take it lightly. I have an 80 year old mother living in my household. I've taken rather drastic measures to mitigate any chance of infection on this end. I was taking a pot shot at Big Pharma amongst other things. Belgium is beautiful. My sister used to live there and we had an opportunity to visit.

Heres a happy little fellow. Kind of offsets the bad karma Frawnken Chicken generated. Coming soon to Vulcans Grill: Spatchcock Chicken With Trinidad Habenero Sauce.

Heres one I re-equiped with a bandsaw blade, Thomas. I think the frame is an old meatsaw or something. The teeth are a bit worn out in the middle, time for the billet pile? I counted 10 tpi but my eyes arent what they used to be. Maybe I need to carry some readers around.

Lovely! Will it come in a cheap nasal spray???? I want a pill, as long as its small. Can I buy it at walydrug yet.... Gimme, gimme, gimme.
