Pale Rider Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Pics of the new 19 inch and the new cabinet under the umbrella. As always, the workmanship is just superb. These sit right outside the pool house where the flooring has been installed [but is currently covered up for final painting]. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. House was pretty run down when we bought it [divorce, constant refi and withdraw money, no maintenance, etc.], so got quite a deal, but the tennis court and basketball court were salvageable. The pool, sadly, was not. So we ripped it out and started over, and we added the pool house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 That is a seriously big umbrella! Or is just the camera angle? Inquiring minds want to know. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Pearson Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 Hello Pale Rider; Thanks for posting the pictures of your new cabinet. Everything looks beautiful. I was so impressed with the construction of the side shelves and the pictures Dennis posted of your cabinet, I now have one being built for myself with a few modifications of course ( don't want to be a copy cat) lol. That must have been one heck of a crate when it arrived. alas my BB 32 is languishing in the garage still. every time I pass it by i hear "light me up". Just got all the rotisRee stuff today. I really enjoy reading all the posts here on the forum. I guess this must be social media? Anyway everybody have a great weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeramicChef Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 I have always thought I'd like an umbrella like those until I remember I live in Oklahoma where "... the wind comes sweeping down the plain ..." I just can't see myself repeatedly chasing a sail that big in the middle of a cook. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't see myself repeatedly chasing a sail that big in the middle of a cook. I hear ya. It gets pretty windy here (as it does at many tropical places full of umbrellas), and I expect to watch this thing carefully. What we don't have here is tornados or anything like real hurricanes. I have it sunk below the patio on a four foot concrete post base. It was delivered with two 90-pound steel plates (which are supposed to help it withstand 50mph gusts), but my builder estimates we more than tripled its mooring weight. I am under no illusions about a severe storm though, so we try to practice the habit of cranking it closed every week in the summer (when it almost never rains) and every day we use it in the more unpredictable months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tucker Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Dennis - do you have the casters that are on that large cabinet available? I need to replace the casters i put on my cabinet several years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
