Top Loader?- save your knuckles

Post by Ed Cantarella »

I keep seeing the scraped knuckles complaints. This. Use rubber coated wire - haven't dropped one yet.
Easy to steer past the thermocouple - left hand up, right hand down(steering)
Worsk on round or octagon too()due to the rubber coating on the wire) - just keep your hands over the darn circle Louise!.. :mrgreen:
With some thin ones I can set a 7" candle plate into a Paragon Caldera, easy-peasy.
