BGE Medium with Cabinet in Hungarian style

czbalazs

Hi Guys,

I am from Hungary (Europe) and this is my first post on EggHeadForum. The reason for posting is that I got a beautiful wedding gift from my friends: a medium BGE.

It was widely known that I am planning to buy one after my wedding... so it was a great surprise for me.

The metal nest was not an option for me, so I was looking for a carpenter and we built a customized cabinet. Based on the posts in this category, I designed the structure and the result is the following:

(the wooden parts are made from Ash Tree, the stones are granite)

Hope you like it.

CZ, first of all welcome and congradulations on both the egg and your marriage. You have very thoughtful friends. I can see by the picture that your neighbors are close. I am sure the egg will bring them running. Enjoy both of your new adventures.

Looks great. You may want to consider a table best.

Awesome set-up! Welcome aboard.

Welcome! Very nice table. I'm guessing @MJG meant table nest.  And it would probably be a good idea to add one and get that air gap.  Enjoy your new obsession!

Thanks for the kind words and greetings.

I will consider the table nest... but I am not 100% sure that this item is available in Hungary... I will find it out anyway

Awesome wedding gift , congrats and welcome to the insanity.

If a table nest is not available in your area, go to a garden store and get some ceramic planter spacers to get an air gap under your Egg similar to this:

Would hate to see pyrolysis destroy that gorgeous cabinet.

Something to give an air gap is what'd I would get, it doesn't have to be the nest as people have suggested.  I have seen several posts here when people have almost lost a table die to no air gap.

Thanks for the suggestions... I am looking for something which can ensure the air gap under the Egg.

You must be doing something right if your friends gave you such a great gift.  If only they had warned you about getting married....

Welcome aboard!
