So you have to chill a rod in ice water just to hold a cracked bowl? Seems like a lot of extra steps for a temporary fix. How often does this actually work outside of a perfect shop setup. Feels like one of those things that gets talked up more than it gets used.

My laser level was a total game changer, worth every penny.

Ever wonder if that super thin trim he does only works because of his specific smokers and the crazy amount of humidity in his pits? I tried it once on my old offset and the meat dried out way too fast... it felt like the fat cap was all that was left to protect it. Maybe the method needs to match your own gear and weather, not just the video.

I used to think those trenchers were simple to run, but seeing a new guy try it sure changed my mind.

That "crisp and perfect every time" feeling is real. I used to fight with a butter knife for scoring, and my paper looked chewed up. The bone folder's rounded edge just glides without catching. Total game changer for making clean lines on cardstock too.
