5698k Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm guessing that the smaller grate sits on the firebox handles? Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyfish Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 May I be the first to say WOW!!!! What a SUPER JR it is. At 175lbs that is a beast (sorry CC). The color on the tiles is striking. The bars on the grids could double as jail cell doors...look how thick they are. The overall quality on the stainless is is amazing on the hinge and the vent doors and handle. The overall fit and finish is to die for. To the Komodo Kamado craftsman another job superbly done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Congrats on the new addition. Just curious, do you live in the woods, or is that a camp site / cabin? Looks like nice surroundings and a perfect place for KKing. I grew up in Kentucky. When I was a kid, I lived with my Mom in Northern Kentucky during the school year (5 mins from downtown Cincinnati, OH). I lived with my Dad in the summers on a 100+ acre farm. I now live in a concrete jungle, Singapore. I miss the farm. My Dad is still there and I visit once a year, but your pics just took me home for a minute. Thanks.

I live out in the country. Gravel driveway and all. Walk out of my side door. Cross over the driveway, walk over a small motorcycle driveway (about 40'-50' in total) and you end up at Reef's Backyard Bistro - LOL Future improvements are planned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeramicChef Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 ckreef - you've heard it a hundred times already, but what a wonderful looking KK! Great color on those tiles. Now all you have to do is put a picture of Super Jr. as your avatar and you're good to go! Congrats my friend! I couldn't be happier for you, skreef, and Hawk!

ckreef Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 TY everyone for all the kind words. Here are a few more pictures to wet your whistle. Ash from initial burn in with 5" sweepie broom. Note on the super Jr there is no separate firebox. It's just thicker down at the bottom. Here is the thickness of the Super Jr. Very bottom 2 1/2" Wall at the: Bottom 2 1/4" Middle 2 1/8" Top 2" Dome 2" Messured as best I could.

ckreef Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 ckreef, I don't know how much longer I can stand looking at those beautiful gorgeous pixs, stunning I know your and tiny's wait must be killing you two. All good things come to those who wait and the reward will be that much sweater. Just keep telling yourself that anyways. Can't wait to see your pictures when it arrives. I was a little skeptical about my color until it arrived. I now think it is better than the color I was going to order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeramicChef Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 ckreef - don't you just love the care package that comes with your KK? I always marvel at how complete it is and everything in is so well thought out. That little care package covers just about every eventuality, even the top vent gasket. I can't imagine burning that thing so badly I'd need to replace it. Thanks for the measurements on Super Jr. It might be relatively small, but it IS a KK and that over-engineering does add quite a bit of heft to Super. ckreef, if you enjoy Super half as much as I do Beauty! & TheBeast, you'll be wearing a smile on your face all day long. Here's to you looking like a smiling fool like me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Definitely nice to have the extra tiles and gaskets just in case. I bet this thing would seal up fairly well even without a main gasket the way he designed the body and dome lips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
