Time to get off my .... Procrastination is my eternal enemy.. Time to bite that bullet, change the website to HTML and fill a couple of pages with informative photos.. And let's not forget I also need bite the grenade and redo the pricing page.. Ok guys consider it done...

Great.. Thanks... Great.. Thanks guys.. Is this instant customer feedback great or what? I was unhappy using a round upper grill.. Just not sexy enough in the OTB. The utility was there but sometimes just life calls for more than utility So I asked them to make a template for the jig and when I saw it I said... Whoa Nelly! That's way too big and they said but it's 18" and I said.. I don't care how big it is, it's too big and I knew it was time to bring the forum into use and take this to vote. So of course.. I'll be dancing the victory jig later Ok round two.. I'm going to put longer legs on it and handles on top.. I'm going to make it small enough to stand on the firebox at lower grill level or be able to set it handle side down to use in down low and hot to sear.. Does that get votes, cheers and high fives?

Ok guys.. I need your input here.. I've always shipped out 18" round upper grills. They work just fine but would have more visual UMPH if they were the OTB shape.. Here is a shot of a plywood template sitting on a round upper grill. Do you guys think this size is too large? Just right? I'm considering making it smaller and then it can be used down below for a sear grill also.. dual use.. Thanks in advance for sharing your wealth of experience

Re: Tile patterns

Samantha is correct.. The hole can be driled out.. It needs to be larger for the lower pressured Natural gas.

Knock down and move in two pieces... Your cooker is designed to be broken down very easily... Remove the stainless cover and then loosen and remove the large bolt that is at the bottom of the hinge's spring with the supplied 19mm socket wrench. Next you want to pull out the cotter pin from the left side of the hinges pivot shaft. Now tap out the shaft... the top half is now free of the lower.. your Classic top half weighs 43kgs (96lbs) and although heavy is manageable. The lower half weighs 115kg (253lbs) and comes with a blue nylon rope harness that can be used to pick it up either with 5cm X 10cm wood boards (2"x4") or by hand. I always recommend using a refrigerator dolly that has canvas straps when possible..

Thank you for all your kind email of concern about the tsunami in Java. Fortunately I'm on the other side of the island and considering there are 90 million people on this island the area hit was not too populated...

Re: tan tile It was sold on eBay this weekend

I'm also looking for the ideal setup.. I want a L coming out to a quick release connected to the hose.. Problem being is that everything here is metric.. but I really don't want my customers to have to run around so I'll probably end up shipping them here paying tax on them just to ship them back.. Murphy's Law prevails

Most definitely still shipping to Orlando

I like it! I like it! That's going to take some thinking

Claiming ignorance.. Claiming ignorance.. I never read any of this

Drying the cookers The two layer refractory and insulation material still hold about a gallon per half after they have air dried. The vacuum kiln removes this water. The body is wet with water and adhesive with a paint brush before the mortar is applied for better adhesion. The mortar of course is mixed with adhesive which is water based as is the grout. Heating the cooker with the gas burner does dry them both. Common sense would dictate that it's best to try to remove this moisture before I soak/seal the grout with water and stain proof sealer.. Possibly trapping it in.. I know too much thought

This might be cool.. any other ideas? I'm looking for a font that I can cut out with the CNC to the left and right of the lower latch thru the strip and then filled with grout.. This might be cool.. any other ideas? Thanks for all your help.. BTW.. We just found your top today in the storage room.. I thought it went out weeks ago.. Total brain fart.. It's now on the water.. You can have it no charge...

I know it looks like too much The problem here is that you left the SCCR (Small Cook Containment Ring) in the basket.. When doing a small cook it's nice to use this ring to be able to stack a small volume of coals.. It's easier to light and control them stacked. For regular cooks, pull out the SCCR and fill the main coal bowl.. I know it looks like too much but remember airflow controls the burn/temp not the amount of charcoal. After you light this larger volume up, you will find it will be fast and easy to get to 350. When your finished cooking, close it down, this cuts the oxygen, kills the burn and saves the remaining charcoal for your next cook...

Heat.. The mortar holds moisture and the grout seals it in and the grout is also sealed.. This is not much but I really believe that until it is disapated there is more heat held in the tiles.. I've been cooking on a textured the last 6-8 months.. The other day we were heating a cooker with gas and same thing when I touched it I was really surprised how hot the tiles were.. So my guess is that after a few cooks the trapped moisture will disapate and it'll be cooler to the touch.. I've been playing with heating them with gas for 4-5 hours after they are tiled before the grout to remove this moisture...

Re: Tel-Tru thermometers... Now Standard! Aaah come on.. Your forgetting what company your dealing with.. Ask and you shall receive..

New Four Seasons Hotel Republic of the Seychelles in the Indian ocean. It's beaches are beautiful with huge soft brown bolders the size of houses strewn about.

Yup.. As you know, I've designed and built a lotta teak furniture in my day.. Over 600 containers worth to be a lil more exact. After reading the New York Times article, Pimp My Grill where they pointed out how popular the fully loaded cooking islands were and how people were spending obscene amounts of money on them, I immediately realized that I was missing the boat by not utilizing/marrying my woodworking division in the factory to Komodo. So the plan is to make everything from simple tables to fully loaded units that will have everything including the kitchen sink.. So now.. I have a dream The problem is that in the real world, I just signed on to do 100,000 sq.' of hand worked textured teak floors for a new Four Seasons Hotel being built. This of course is a dream job.. and will have me running 2 and 3 shifts in some departments, 7 days a week. Thank God I'm on Java and have access to lots of good coffee...

Just like daddy, my little girl Larissa Isla now 8 months old and sporting 6 teeth dug into her first smoked meat today and loved it.. Here she is tearing into some maple brined and smoked piggy fillet.. And you thought my cookers were beautiful!

Wipe your eye my friend... Wipe your eye my friend... look again

I'll work on it tomorrow I'll work on it tomorrow, Sunday here..
