You don't have a fire extinguisher anywhere in the house?

Dude, they are like 40 bucks or so at Costco - really nice one. You need at least one. It may save your life one day. Canadian Tire has them starting from $29.00.

http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/ga...0069p.html#srp

I have one in the garage and one in the kitchen. Actually, I think I have more than that. I just remembered I have one in the trailer and one downstairs. Yup, I'm paranoid. Never had a fire in like....... forever, but all it takes is the one time. Just one in the house will do, lol.


Just an FYI

I don't think you can rent them, but check places like Princess Auto or CT they might have them on sale. They should have larger ones than the standard car size (I know CT does, I've seen them before, availability will probably vary by store though. Iirc it was at the cambie location a few years ago).

Maybe you should have the fire department on standby? good luck!

Annnd I'm slow lol. thread didn't load properly so I didn't realize there was another page lol.

Uh, throwing water onto a gas fire would take it from bad to worse. You want to spread burning gasoline everywhere? That would do it.

Make sure you get a BC rated extinguisher for gas fires. The powder should smother the fire. Water will just spread it around.

Great! And, knock on wood, I hope you never have to use it. Unless, it's someone else's fire you put out with the extinguisher.

You should spend the $40 and have some insurance at your shop

If anything I'm actually quite interested in planting a yuzu tree from what I've read it's not too difficult, doable indoors as well. Just need some seeds haha.

It used to be a holiday-only thing (like a month prior x'mas). Then it became sorta a regular item where you can buy outside of x'mas season albeit no on shelves (where the true permanent items are located).

But I just can't find it now after promising an acquaintance that I'd bring her some.
