New tool! (torch)
Bought a torch from Northern tool. Instead of smoking some weeds.
Not to be confused with "smoking weed" (not my thing) I'm posting pictures cause I feel like crap and I'm hoping I'll feel good enough to use it tomorrow. Can't wait to find more uses for this thing!

Re: New tool! (torch)
my grandpa had one. torching weeds takes a bit. i hated having to do that. as for other uses, "shoveling" the driveway?

That's how they (or at least used to) control weeds at the zoo.
Very efficient if you remember that you just have to heat the plants up, not actually burn them. I'm all for keeping herbicides out of our water. |
