Had to replace the base with warranty replacement. Needed new gasket so went ahead and installed Rutland. Had a little smoke leaking from the left side while cooking but after I shut it down it quit leaking. Just hamburgers and hot dogs, but they were good.

    Sometimes simple is better. Hard to beat a few good burgers and dogs in my book.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Looks good! BTW even if there is a little leakage initially any escaping smoke is carrying creosote particles with it which will fill the minute air gaps. If you are not pleased after a while holler back and I will give you a proven method of how to adjust your gasket itself just enough to eliminate a still leaking gap. OK?
