Hungover Dawn Services, $10 Smokers, and Chasing 12V Gremlins
Shane and Dean are back behind the mics (with some slick new equipment) to recap a massive, chaotic Anzac long weekend. From navigating the genuine hazards of vacuum-sealed mattresses to questionable decisions involving rum and early morning motorcycle rides to the Dawn Service, the boys cover it all. Plus, we get a massive update on the FJ Cruiser’s 12V and awning build, and a revolutionary (if highly questionable) new way to season a tomahawk steak using power tools.
In This Episode, We Cover:
Hazardous Homewares & Crazy News: The boys kick off with the hidden dangers of auto-rolling bed-in-a-box mattresses and react to a wild news story about a domestic dispute involving a jerry can and a lit cigarette.
The FJ Cruiser 12V Overhaul: A deep dive into tearing apart the FJ’s dash to fix some questionable old wiring. We talk upgrading the UHF to the new XRS 335 (and the need for dual aerial symmetry), wiring up the 105Ah lithium battery, setting up the Victron Orion DC-DC and smart shunt to run the 60L Kings fridge full-time, and swapping the 270 awning to the right-hand side to suit the rear door.
Anzac Weekend Chaos: Surviving a rough first week at a new job by getting into the Captain Morgan, leading to a severely hungover, freezing-cold morning motorcycle ride to the Blackboy Hill Dawn Service, followed by pints at the Midland Tavern.
Shed Demo & The $10 Smoker: Tearing down Phil's shed with ringing ears and zero prep, then firing up a $10 Bunnings offset smoker salvaged from the tip. Plus, the ultimate BBQ hack: seasoning a Spud Shed tomahawk steak using a Milwaukee leaf blower.
Gear Swaps & Mates: Catching up with Brett and Tegz, passing on the "Go Further" battery box to power the Y62 & the MU-X, handing out some old two-ways, and a shoutout to Benny for dropping off the new hats.
Notable Quotes:
"You cut it out of the bag and it was like being a terrorist. It just fucking boom... I almost got me nose rearranged."
"If you go to a party, you take your six-pack, you take a carton, you put it in the fridge, and you just leave it there, mate. Once you leave, that's not yours."
"We went through a whole thing of seasoning a tomahawk steak with the Milwaukee blower. We laughed the whole way through."
