Newbie Storage Question

You don't have to worry about that. I cook out of my garage and rarely ever take it out. I usually only take it out if I am searing or cooking pizza's. When you are done just close down the vents and put on the green cap.

Harley Butts, Welcome to the forum.

Is Harley your name or do you have other interests?

If your egg is in a nest I suggest you carefully pull not push your egg to where you want to place it. We have read many horror stories of folks pushing their egg and hitting a bump and the egg tips over and you don't want to know the rest of the story. :( When your finished cooking simply close the bottom damper and replace the daisy wheel with the rain cap.

Brad why would it be any harder to travel with the "handler"? I moved my large from the house to the Inn and to the park with the handler on it and did not find a problem. I am asking this to be sure I just did not miss a problem that comes up? I got the new 4" wheeled nest & handle just for that reason. Just asking you thoughts.

Hey Mickey, In looking at it, it is bolted to the egg and nest. Since I can't fit both as is in my SUV then I would have to unbolt it. It might not be a big deal, but it is a lot easier for me to lift it out of its current nest and go directly into my SUV. Does that make sense?

I wish it had some kind of quick release pin system on the handler. It might not make it as strong, but I would buy one then. Yes, it looks like the black grid is 10" for the mini and the SS is 9.5". That is interesting! That really makes me think someone possibly screwed up the mock up on the SS one. Who knows?

Harley, if i were in you spot moving my egg everytine I cooked I'd build a table with some big pneumatic tires on it you can just roll over those pebbles, the garage lip won't be as much of a problem and you can store all your junk (and you continue to grow that pile trust me) in one place that goes with the egg. Naked whiz's table is a good starting point I'd put 2x4 for the top rail if your gonna lift on it a lot just to be safe.

@Austin I'd be careful running the pit in your garage most cities have fire codes about a BBQ pit within a certain # of ft of a structure. If youre in a house its probaly no big deal but appts, condos and our code says something like "structures that pose an iminate fire danger to surrounding sturctures" which is pretty much a catch all if you set your neighbor's house a blaze they can fine you, bu I dunno your local codes.
