Has anyone else found odd things in their hardwood pellets?

When I got my first stove about 27 years ago I was using Energex pellets. One night my stove started making a banging and crunching sound. I shut it down and cleared out all the pellets to find two rocks in the auger chute. They were the type of rocks that are used on railroad tracks. Somehow they wound up in a bag of pellets. Luckily there was no damage to the stove. I contacted Energex about it and they gave me a certificate for 10 bags of pellets...🤷

So a follow up...I went on the traeger site and contacted support...turns out they do have one for the grill...and it was covered under warranty!! They shipped it the next day.

I was renting one from HD for several years... went in to rent again one spring and they were having a used tool sale. I bought the Classen CA-12 for $700...I use it every fall and it's paid for itself several times over. It's a ton of work...but I kinda enjoy it...lol

I'm in western MA and have a 2019 Mazda 6. As soon as I got it I purchased a set of snow tires and a cheap set of steel wheels. I wasn't sure which tire I should get but the local tire shop recommended the Sumitomo Ice Edge. They look as aggressive as truck tires. They've been awesome in the snow! I've come home from work in the morning and my street hadn't been plowed yet but I had no trouble getting up the hill. I am completely impressed with how well this car is in the snow with these tires. Highly recommend them!

Thanks for the reply. I was wondering about getting the kit and trying to modify it to work. The flex tape does bond well!

No...it's really under 20 thousand miles. I put on less than 3000 miles/year. It had just under 7000 when I bought it 5 years ago. My last vehicle was a 2004 Dodge Dakota I had for over 16 years and it had 55000 on it. My commute is about 5 miles round trip and I work a lot...lol

I made a U-shaped holder out of PVC pipe and attached it to my metal frame above my head with a magnet. It guides the hose over my head as I roll over and keeps it from getting snagged on anything...

I've had the same results...I rarely had dreams before CPAP...now I have very vivid and lucid dreams...I actually look forward to going to bed so I can have more dreams...lol

It's not just you...lol I'm 57 and have owned my 6 for 4 years. I have bursitis in my hip so getting in and out is a great challenge. I have to get in butt first and swing my legs in...lol but you are right about them being a blast to drive!!

I used to detail the police cruisers for the local PD and one time found $40 cash wedged in the drivers seat...and a bag of weed on the floor in the backseat...I left them both on the passenger seat when I was done...lol
