Looks interesting, could save on space while camping...

I want one for the soon to be MINI WSM that I will be building. Has anyone used one on an 18/22 kettle for small charcoal amounts?
Craig
Wow, I had no idea this existed. I want one for my Minioning!
I have used it a few times and like it. IMO, when you need a small amount of lit briqs (minion) the mini lights them quicker and more evenly than a partially filled regular sized chimney (side note-I typically only use one parafin firecube as a starter). Is it a "must have"....probably not...just another tool in the arsenal.
Definatly getting this! I started using the parafin cubes 2 years ago and never looked back. I hate the flying embers of newspaper and havn't touched lighter fluid since before I got my regualar chimney.
Craig
Yep just right for the 18 and I agree about the minion starting too , works better than the big one.
Need one, then it's gonna be 'handle time' again!

I was thinking the same thing. I have one from Brian, a real beauty (the handle, not Brian. Though I haven't met him yet, so who am I to say he's not a real beauty too), would look perfect on a Mini Chimney.

have both, large and small. works great with my 18 and 22 WSM (minion) Have been using the small one a lot.
Love it.
I have one as well. I got it for the mini wsm/smokey joe for the RV.
i have yet to see one in person, but i want one
the ace hardware i was at yesterday in Gig Harbor, Washington had a really awesome selection of weber stuff, but no mini chimney.
