Papa Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 #2 It was in the first part of January, 1848, when the gold was discovered at Coloma, CA. Coloma is my suggestion for #2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawaiian Pirate Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Re: Two New tiles.. Komodo's limited production never enabled us to be able to custom order tiles but when I saw this tile in a larger size I just had to get them made for Komodo.. Here it is after six months of smoozing I finally convinced the factory to do a custom run for me.. They look like the traditional BBQ black but with a silky smoothness to them.. very slick.. I gotta have one for myself! Silky Black And here is a new tile from a different company.. Any ideas for a name for this new tile? Dennis, So the question is, How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood... Did i pass the test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 But they definitely have that chalk board/slate thing going I am curious how the top two pics look for everyone else, as they look gray on my screen? Are they supposed to be black? -=Jasen=- I shot them in the factory under has fiberglass panels which gives everything a bit of a whitish cast. I'll shoot them and do a white point correction next week.. But they definitely have that chalk board/slate thing going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumrtym Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 For the 2nd one.... Earth Wind and Fire EDIT: And yes, I can't wait to see what one tiled in that second set looks like. We may have a new favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Hi Dennis, These 2 new tiles look great to me but my wife would like to see the rest of the available tiles before I place an order for my 2nd cooker. I love my first one and the next one will be an OTB Gen II. How about posting all of the available colors like used to be on your web site! My wife wants a "shiney black" tile with black grout.
