The diameter or the fire ring is larger than the diameter of the grate and there's atleast an inch of space for the grate to slide around.
-
Yeah I just looked I guess they are all like that but I never cook on the fire ring so I didn't notice it. This egg the fire ring is the felt level so it would have been nice if they locked into each other.

One of the 1st people to get one and complaining already. Glass is always half full. :((1 XXL BGE, 1 LG BGE, 2 MED. BGE, 1 MINI BGE, 1 Peoria custom cooker Meat Monster.Clinton, Iowa

I also said it looked really nice. You will see what I am saying about the grate. I just looked at my mini and its the same way but it hits the side of the egg quick its a small gap maybe a half an inch. I just measured and its exactly 1" gap on the mini max so there's plenty of room for it to move around.

I know it was a joke. I knew it would take a little bit to get once they were released as my dealer only gets1 truck a month. He said next week which Iis fine as I'm out till next Monday any was for work.1 XXL BGE, 1 LG BGE, 2 MED. BGE, 1 MINI BGE, 1 Peoria custom cooker Meat Monster.Clinton, Iowa

You put that together FAST

@lit I like the mm over the red thing there. Due to the red one looking almost as tall as a small. Might just be the picture though1 XXL BGE, 1 LG BGE, 2 MED. BGE, 1 MINI BGE, 1 Peoria custom cooker Meat Monster.Clinton, Iowa

It only took about 45 minutes. I just put a mini together a week or so ago though and that's much harder. Bad news is I can't use it tonight I have work around the house to do but the good news is I am working from home tomorrow and see how much shoulder I can jam in this thing. Gonna shoot for a 18 lb pack from Costco,

Perhaps you are overthinking things as usual. I highly doubt the fire ring held this up.
-
I think what he's saying is the tests they go through to find the right dimension for airflow etc. so those minor changes could be what they are working on. It's certainly possible.

Love seeing these pics. Keep em coming <:-PSlumming it in Aiken, SC.

With the fire ring so close to the felt line, how much higher would the grate be with the plate setter?
Large BGE, Small BGE, KJ Jr, and a Cracked Vision Kub.

-
I'd assume the plate setter must not be very high (prob somewhat flat) and fit in those 3 openings in the fire ring.

Does anyone else think @NPHuskerFL is chasing a truck down the interstate right nowJacksonville FL

I don't know Ron so I can't say anythingHowever, on another note, I did notice a big BGE truck yesterday on the Houston highway? My wife and I were tempted to just follow it wherever it goes to see if it brought mini max to the dealers)
