Looking for a Medium Nest

Options
Howdy folks, 

I am doing a hot rod resto on an Imperial Kamado to go with my XL BGE and I am in need of a Med Nest if anyone has one collecting dust that they want to sell. I will post pics when I have this project complete. It is coming along rather splendidly. Lemme know, and TIA.

    Have you checked Craigslist?

    A medium nest on CL is a white whale. I looked for a long time before @northGAcock graciously hooked me up.

    I have to agree. My most expensive used nest was my small. Just for the fact they don't come up on Craigslist. It might be the same with the medium depending on where you live. Keep checking if you don't end up finding one here on the forum. Best of luck and welcome!

    Just as a side note for anyone reading this thread....A MiniMax also fits nicely into a medium nest. It is not optimum height...but it is very workable. My point here is if you purchase one new, there is expanded use besides just a medium.

    Curious if you knew when the new modular tables will hit the market? Was in an Ace (Charlotte) the other day and see they have not started carrying them as yet.

    I have one here in the warehouse and just ordered two more for customers.  They're pretty nice.  Lots of options.

    I should have just asked you. Was in there about a week / 10 days ago and the guy i asked was not aware of the new line. Appreciate the update.

    I thought I had two but the second was as older nest for a large (used to be the same size as a medium, but with the extra support bars)  This medium one is in really good shape.....has the rubber tips and the bracer bar so it's less than a few years old.  IIRC I traded somebody a table nest and some charcoal for it.  He bought it from another dealer but ended up building a table.  I think that was the story on this one.
