    Tossing a bunch of crap we haven't used in years. Very liberating! 

    Hey - I'm doing the same thing today!  Feels good, but makes me want to question every future purchase.
    Never question your your future purchases.  When was the last time you were wrong?
    According to who, me or the wife?

    Basically a .010" diameter wire (2-3 times the thickness of human hair) cuts (erodes) hardened steel to very tight tolerances (.0002" is standard tolerance but tighter can be held)

    edit: now when i say it is way faster than our other three machines. . . when it is cutting, you can't tell the head is moving.
    Thanks (you too DE).  We have something similar here at the Depot but it goes by a different acronym, will have to check my notes Monday (off Friday tomorrow).

    We're doing much the same...cleaning out the basement so it can be waterproofed and renovated.  Keep pushing the wife..."We haven't used this is 3 years.  I think we can donate it."
    We purged a tremendous amount of junk. We still have a tremendous amount of junk. My  Beautiful Wife, keeps bringing in a tremendous amount of junk. It is madness. I DREAM of the day we live an uncluttered lifestyle. Uncluttered lifestyle=no chance in hell. Christmas decorations alone, that are never used, would fill up a dumpster. 
    However, my grilling equipment, that is another story and is not part of the conversation.......

    In my situation at least I can say that it is our home I am concerned about.  I'm worried about having too many totes that we have to move to switch summer and winter clothes, or bedding.  We have shelves to hold stuff on the wall, where we could have artwork or family photos.

    The deck box and shed are not part of this discussion.

    Good luck.

    EDIT - just found out it is a Large, full set up.

    My brother in law picked up a Kamado Joe. Man that thing is impressive. Especially all the accessories that come with it. All I had to do tonight was eat. Prime rib, taters, mushrooms, and Texas toast. I showed him the t-Rex method for the steaks. If taking pictures of your own food is weird, try taking pictures of someone elses food they cooked! Actually my brother in law was doing the same. =)

    They'll be even more impressive next year when they will come with a new top vent which will be similar in function to the Smokeware cap and a new counterbalanced hinge system. The dome can be opened with just a couple fingers and will stay in whatever position you leave it at - no more slamming shut if you let go.

    The two larger KJ models have an ash collection system that has a perforated screen panel so no need for a separate sliding screen door.



    The KJ Jr. does not have the ash collection system nor a screen door but I have yet to see any embers jumping out thru the open bottom vent even when I have it opened all the way at startup. I use a KAB in my Jr. but I have no idea if that helps eliminate that problem.
