Those casters welded on or bolted? I may have some bigger ones that would work on grass better if bolted...

I am 100% convinced that wood smoke helps tremendously - I started smoking my cloths this year and deer sightings within range increased dramatically over the last 4 years (since I started keeping copious notes).....me experience and opinion is that the deer certainly smell the smoke as they demonstrate the tell-tale, high-head - upward nod wind check, but they don't spook in fact, they rarely change their course and their body language remains calm- no foot stomp, head bob, tail flip- you know all of those signs that we have come to know as the "oh ***** I'm busted" signs....
what is problematic about a campfire is if it is a true campfire that has been cooked over where grease and other foreign debris has made its way into the fire - I can't say that I have much experience with this, but enough folks have reported negative results with this type of set-up that I likely won't try it....
Yes I did invest in the Scent Smoker and it is a sweet device - but I didn't need and wouldn't recommend the kit which includes the smoker, chips, and torch head - in fact, I don't use the torch as I don't like the idea of driving around with a propane cylinder in the truck and the chips are very difficult to light on their own - I use one of those wind resistant BIC pen lighters - you know the one's where you push the button, then pull the trigger - some use them to light grills etc.,,, and I use some wood from where ever I am at. A few leaves in the bottom, with some twigs on top, light it as the twigs catch throw a few bigger twigs in close the lid and you smoking - don't get caught up on the brand-names - EBay has a bunch at much better prices and the shipping won't kill you either...
I have developed a very good system for my area as I cannot have an open fire in the yard - I put up my ground blind in the yard hang my cloths in the blind, my Heater Body Suit, my boots, day-pack, pretty much everything except my facemask, neck gaiter, hat, gloves, glass, and electronics....I then get an old pot and start a small fire in the pot using some firewood from the stack, soon as I get a consistent flame - I'll drop a bigger piece of wood on top, slide the pot in the blind and in 10-minutes or so your blind and all of your gear is "smoked up". If it is a little strong for you at first - hang the gear out on the fence for an hour or so....
Be forewarned - the smoke scent stays with the cloths for some time - including after washing....
this has worked wonders for me.....I only started this process this year and whil I haven't harvested a quality buck, I have passed on 9 different buck this year in the 110-120" range (most in the 3-year old range) - most of my friends and family think I am nuts when they see pics and vids of them walking by as these deer would be very good deer for our area of PA - if I shoot a good one I won't have a shot at a GREAT one - at least that's what I tell them.....Comment

The fire pit has been working flawlessly! We were going to put some larger wheels on it, but haven't needed to yet.Comment
