The cheapies I bought were in steel cans and they just sucked!! They were basically one time use(throw aways) that just didn't work very well. I put some good wicks in these, and I have extra caps that aren't notched for the wicks to fit in, so I can reseal them with the citronella oil still in the can and not have to worry about spills. All I gotta do is get to camp, put the modded cap on, pull wick through with needle nose pliers and light! Get ready to leave and I just push wick into can, put solid lid back on and pack it all away! Modded caps go into a ziploc baggie. Worked very well. If the aluminum gets bent, or paint begins to rub off, I'll just drink & make more!! GF said I truly was a redneck, because before I made these I had some scrap Reflectix pieces and a roll of Duct Tape that I used to make a couple Koozies out of! Those worked exceptionally well while performing this mod!! Sorry, no pics of the Reflectix Koozies, but I'll take some if anyones interested!! Tim657Views0likes0CommentsRe: Show your mods!!
Got to take my first trip this past weekend with the new 21M. It was an unexpected trip, so I hurried up and loaded the trailer with some supplies. Bought some cheap Tiki torches to keep the mosquitoes at bay, and I found out real quick why they were so cheap!! I had a few adult beverages and decided to make my own custom Tiki Torches with the remnants of those adult beverages! I was quite pleased with the way they turned out, now I just gotta perfect the procedure and fine tune them just a little bit. Let me know what you think!! Hope to have more Mod pics of things I've done to the trailer coming in the near future, just thought I'd share these with everyone. Haven't seen many mods posted that weren't actually on the trailer, so hope I'm not breaking any rules here:C Tim669Views0likes0Comments
