Table Storage Question

Nativetexan

Howdy folks!

New Egger here. Just bought my LBGE a few weeks ago and haven't even had the chance to take it out of its box yet.   I'm fairly handy with wood working and would like to start building a table this weekend. I was thinking about including a space big enough in the table to hold a cooler (igloo, coleman, etc) for allowing the meat to rest.   My question is this - do you use a cooler often enough to justify the space it would take under the table?  Would I be smarter to use that space for something else (place setter, charcoal, etc)?   I also plan on building a smaller drawer under the egg for the accessories (temp gauge, skewers, etc), so that will be included already.  I don't want to make this table too large, but want to make sure I don't regret adding something after I finish it.  Thanks all, and I look forward to contributing more to this forum!

You can not have enough storage room for  adj rig, place setter, charcoal, etc.......

I personally wouldn't devote space to a cooler.  I think the space is better used to store all of the gear you will eventually get for the egg, like pizza stones, CI racks, etc.

Agree with both Mickey and tgkleman. While I use a cooler, it's not enough to dedicate a space to it. I have, however, accumulated a lot of gear, charcoal. My wife recently purchased this in order to "clean up" the multiple bins I had. Everything fits nicely and is in one place with a little room to spare for.....additional eggcessories.

No cooler but storage for all your Eggcessories is never enough, PS, stones, cast iron, racks, charcoal, etc. it all adds up.

Thanks everyone. This helps a lot and I'll focus my design on future growth of more accessories and goodies..
