How tight are they suppose to be? I've been paranoid about something like this ever since I noticed it loosened up on a pizza cook I was doing.

Make sure that the BGE has cooled before checking the torque.

The picture was this morning after he had been exonerated of all charges. I understand that ultimately it is my responsibility take care for and maintain the egg. I think growing up we all heard "and this is why we can't have nice things" and I fully expect that I'll lose many more thing as a result of him acting an as..........a child. Lighter note. Just Picked up my torque wrench for $53 and change at my neighborhood Sears.

You said it guy, not me. I knew nothing about your parenting skills until you bought it up.

Mr Tip - Clearly the phrase used in the original e-mail was tongue in cheek and perhaps driven by a little frustration. You are either jumping to inappropriate conclusions or just going a bit overboard. This certainly does not qualify as abuse. My parenting skills are pretty damned good. My kid was an **** at times and I would tell him to stop being one. He is now in his 40's, doing very well,  and I did a pretty decent job. Calm down and take the statement in the spirit in which it was intended.

Only if...you do not have a torque wrench. Also, make sure that the egg has cooled.

I knew someone would start something when I first read this post, I told the wife, just wait, someone will take that in a way and start something, yup, it happened. Had to play catch up this morning on this one. Wish I would have opened this up last night while I was sipping on a few rums.

Ya I wasn't real concerned about hurting your feelings. With the exception of you everyone else understood the point I was trying to make. 

I have to say, this was hands-down one of the best responses I've ever seen on a forum. I might have to steal this in the future

Years later...

Having broken my base dome moving to our new house, the good news is most dealers will sell you just the broken part. I bought a new Large Egg bottom, and glued the other one back together. I won't cook with it, but I plan on using it as a planter on my deck. I can totally vouch for the slo motion experience too. I was rolling mine down a trailer ramp, and the nest collapsed and I watched my egg die in very slow motion. Thankfully, life went on, and after about three days SWMBO gave in and told me to buy a replacement. She missed the egg as much as I did!

Went to my local dealer and got a new dome.  Got some new bolts and the torque wrench to be sure everything was where it needs to be.  I even cleaned up my gasser to see if I can get a few buckys for it on Craigslist.
