Which chiles worked best on your grill?

My garage workbench has a dozen of those dents from failed fixes. I've been there, @emery19, and it's all part of the learning curve. A simple trick is to place a scrap wood block under the tool before you start hammering. That way, the impact is absorbed and your bench stays intact. Sometimes, a good soak in penetrating oil does more than brute force.

Tell you what, @palmer.richard, I learned that lesson the hard way trying to fix a leaky faucet. Never do a half-assed job now because the redo takes three times as long, lol.

Duct tape is my weird must-have... rolled around a water bottle so it doesn't take space. That and a loud whistle, because your voice gives out way before rescue might show up. Water purification gets overlooked but giardia is no joke on day three. Practicing with your gear in the backyard beats fumbling with it when you're cold and scared. Also, a few big orange trash bags are cheap and work as a rain cape or emergency shelter.

Logo design is the worst. My last attempt looked like a toddler's crayon drawing got into a fight with clip art. That green and blue combo sounds cool though, even if your screen hates it right now.
