Jon B. Posted March 22, 2016 Report Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) After we unpacked the 19" TT KK at the house, I brought the crate into work to dispose of the wood (we send old pallets to a plant to be recycled). Put in the KK crate in old pallet pile and said my final goodbye . Today I walked by the maintenance cage and saw a pleasant surprise........the top half of the KK crate was rescued and tuned into a work table by the maintenance crew. They love how strong it is!!!! Only trouble is that every time I see the crate, I want to go home and start cooking !!!!! Edited March 22, 2016 by Jon B. Fix picture 1

tony b Posted March 22, 2016 Report Posted March 22, 2016 Mine got recycled into a doghouse for the neighbor dog across the street. Neighbor was impressed with the quality of the wood and asked for the crate to build the doghouse out of. It's a nice doghouse! The dog likes it, too!
MacKenzie Posted March 23, 2016 Report Posted March 23, 2016 Jon and Tony, it must put a smile on your faces to see your KK crates being put to good use.:)
tony b Posted March 23, 2016 Report Posted March 23, 2016 I'm an old hippie, so being Green is always a good thing in my book! I actually remember participating in the very first Earth Day back in the 70s.

CeramicChef Posted April 4, 2016 Report Posted April 4, 2016 The crate for my 32", TheBeast, lives on as a dog house for a friend of mine who breeds Mastiffs. It just fits. Angel, the mastiff, just loves her crate. She's as gentle as a lamb despite her bark and her size. Just like TheBeast!

I want to use my crate as a side table if I get the awesome komodo kamado label on the side. Maybe I would add wheels too...
Jon B. Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Posted May 23, 2016 Our crate was for a 19" table top model. They did not have to alter/cut the crate, as it was at perfect woriing height - FYI
