Having trouble getting the barbecue going?
I mean a proper barbecue, not one of those gas barbecues for girls and gays. A Black & Decker paint stripper gun acts like a pair of bellows and will turn the small glowing embers into a raging furnace.

Great for small barbecues
You know when it's too late in the evening to really get the barbecue going properly but you want to cook a couple of sausages or something? Chuck a couple of handfuls of charcoal in and blast it with the hot air paint stripper and you're away.

Funny, we were just talking about this yesterday at a barbecue. I tend to use a bit of steel tube about a foot long to extend the nozzle of the hot air gun, about the diameter of a car exhaust pipe (it's actually an offcut of some stuff I bought to make up some exhaust pipes).

That was pretty much it.
No big party. We had a pack of sausages and burgers for tea so I fancied doing them outside.

You can also use potato chips
Or crisps as you bastards call them. Very flammable
