Another use for Belt Sander

[Old Dust 1]

Recently my wife baked a batch of cookies but unfortunately were burnt on the bottom.
Just a tap of the cookie bottom on the belt sander and, VIOLLA! No burnt bottom.

Then I thought, charcoal is good to clean out the digestive system, SO---

Next time I'll just do half a batch.

Now THAT's creativity! And to think I went and bought a bottle of charcoal.......

Hehehe! - I love it John, even though I play safe and leave a little bit of carbon on my food. As you rightly inferred, the smell of burnt cakes is much more preferable to that other smell!!

Here's also a trick for you.

Back in Mexico we often make a special punch in and around Christmas which is brewed from a ruck of different fruits and has chunks of sugar cane added to give the sweetness. Cutting hard sugar cane didn't used to be so easy and also pretty dangerous until I started using my Bosch jigsaw on it! Actually, since buying a bandsaw last year I might just go upmarket and start charging to cut the cane for the neighbours - LOL!

that was the best part!!!! "When it's smokin' it's cookin' when it'd black it's done"

Cajun cookies

Blackened to perfection. Or maybe football cookies, just rub the bottom of the cookies under your eyes.

Touch down.

We'll it doesn't hurt to try
