Oh yes, we are... It is the UK, so I have to talk about the weather. It is absolutely chucking it down where I am. I hope you are having better weather for your burn in/first cook! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Don't get stuck in that gravel, you'll need that crane again. It looks like it was made for that setting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wahoo Posted September 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Don't get stuck in that gravel, you'll need that crane again. It looks like it was made for that setting 2nd Update ! Unpacking Yes the Hyab had limited reach and couldn’t get it onto the flags so left me short by 4m or so , couldn’t obviously let the casters land in the gravel so I enlisted the help of a friendly neighbour who is one of those engineering thinking type of guys So we set to work building a step by step same level walkway all the way to the patio area eliminating the need to push it up hill . Thanks Frank . Removing the block footings that hold each foot of the 42” in place was the next job to release it from the Pallet.Honestly and thanks to Dennis and Rini at the factory you can’t believe how safely and securely this thing has been packed . Now the excitement was starting to build and I have resisted the temptation to rip off the cling film of this great beast and see her undressed in her true glory . I knew it wouldn’t be long now . Her final destination is the bottom end of patio down a small gradient where I have a nice secluded leafy private area but enough was enough I had to see this thing now . So I just undressed her there and then stood back and just smiled at her in awe , my expectations were great and did not disappoint. After opening her up and removing the obscene amount of some of the heaviest grating I have seen I realised time was ticking on . The nights fading now here in UK but I was determined to get this thing lit and get some heat through it before the cook turns up tomorrow .She’s a true beauty . Still not decided on my first cook but you all will get a final update for sure soon .Wahoo . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrus Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 You look good behind the KK. What a setting, stone on stone, I guess you had a plan. Hey, nice move to the apportioned deck, a little common sense and some good friends always help. Bon Voyage on your cooking road. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekobo Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 Wow! I had somehow managed to persuade myself that a 42 was a sensible choice until I saw you standing next to it @Wahoo. She is indeed beautiful and you are definitely not sensible. Well done for jumping in at the deep end. Looking forward to your cook. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
