She had this [barbecue pit] piled up full of hickory. She comes out with this two gallon can of gasoline & she up-ends this thing over the hickory... As she walks away from the pit she takes a kitchen match, strikes it on her butt, throws it over her shoulder, causes an explosion 30 feet into the air. Then she walked by and said: 'Be ready'n about an hour...' - Steve James, Port Townsend 97

Thanks so much for this information and your post, Wax.  That is really fascinating stuff and there is nothing like getting information from people who have had a working acquaintance with the equipment.  Thanks!
All best,

It's fun to share this kind of stuff. Thanks, Johnm. I think you must have been viewing the post while I was still sorting out the pics. Two kept coming out upside down.
