I wasted a lot of wood learning how to hand chase threads. It is so fun and addicting though. I have basically just made a ton of small ring boxes the last little while to practice. My problem is it is super hard to find hand chasers outside of 16 tpi. You have to run the lathe super slow and use super dense wood. It is a blast though.

Double post. Sorry

I guess I never really responded besides saying how jealous I was about playing Torrey Pines. like many here I love to golf. I was not able to get out as much during covid but enough to keep me sane. I also love to woodwork. I have fallen In Love with the lathe. Since then I have not done much flat work. cooking is what has kept me the most sane duty this time especially on my new Komodo kamado. Here are a few of my woodturnings.

I am so jealous! I will play Torrey pines one day! When we travel for vacation and go to La Jolla cove to snorkel, I drive by and make my family mad because I am wasting their time. Lol

Decided to make a handle for my wrench to clean the grates.

I had the same idea for the wrench. It would be crazy easy to make a handle on a lathe. Thanks for the responses.

Can someone post the brand of 3/8” open ended wrench that is rounded. So I can purchase on to clean my grill grates. I cannot find one that is rounded enough to do a good job. Thank you in advance!

Have not figured out yet what I will cook first. Doing the burn in now just wasting coal. Probably a good thing. Trying to figure out temperature control.

Meet big blue!

Thank you!

Could you measure the grates? Length, width and height ? Thank you so much! All of them that come with the big bad 32.

Can someone measure their 32 Big Bad grates for me? I am looking at different storage solutions including building my own. I would love exact sizes of the grates. Thank you in advance.

I special ordered a 32 in August. It should be here by next week. I live in South Jordan. Let me know if you are interested.

What size,grill And accessories did you choose?

Just to clarify it is the 32 big bad terra blue. Sorry if I made that confusing. As I understand it, the half rack is standard in the 32. I am so excited! I am way excited to cook proteins and veggies at the same time.

I finally did it. I ordered my dream grill/ smoker. Like most, I have been lurking for years. I started saving my pennies via a round up app, and finally pulled the trigger. I pulled it a little early, but with corona more time with family on the patio has become even more important. The accessories I ordered are rotisserie motor ( big one) spit not the cradle ( anyone think I made a bad decision please tell me why so I can start saving my pennies again) cold smoker drip pan and cover (thanks Diego brew n q) A bunch of coffee char pizza Stone This is one of the biggest purchases I have ever made. I am scared crapless of un-crating and the burn in! Like Chris Lilly said choose a color your kids will want because it will be there’s someday. I am so excited! I have gained a ton of knowledge from reading your posts and any advice or favorite recipes are always welcome. ( even home brewing recipes, as I have found a lot of home brewers here). I ordered Big Blue at the beginning of August and am awaiting the call to find out when she will be delivered. I will make sure to post pictures, and hope I can become part of this super friendly board. Please feel free to give me any advice! I am an open book who wants to learn as much as possible!

I am very interested in the cover and drip pan. Please let me know.
