Some people do eat iguana. I am not one of them.

After cooking, I took the pot and Jar of TP/Acid outside and let it sit to cool for 45 minutes. After noting the problem with the small Stainless steel bowl used as a “Lid”; I did not want to use any...

I've got a problem: I've decided to coax my No. 4 rifle (a 2-groove Savage) to shoot Montana Bullets' 190 grain spire point bullet, sized .315.

To “Cook” the Toilet Paper/Muriatic Mixture; I used a 2 quart cooking pot with about 2 – 3 inches of water in it. To keep the Peanut Butter Jar off the bottom of the pan (allowing the temperature of...

Directions called for a Glass lid and Rubber Scaling ring; not available in today’s common market – so I improvised and used a small Stainless Steel Bowl from the reloading room, with the curve on...
