Need to be careful if using the turkey fryer. I kind of wanted to really get the chimney going so left the chimney on until almost the whole thing was going, picked up the chimney and just as I was dumping it the bottom fell out! I have a coal and propane forge for another hobby and in looking at the parts figured out the problem. The combination of propane and charcoal basically is getting you to forging temps, around 2,000 degrees. The wire at the bottom got hot enough to get very soft and just slumped out. Oh well, at $1.98 for the new one not a big deal. However if it would have hit my feet with my sandals on, ouch.
