It is a 4 level split house, with concrete siding, and a full basement. and the wood "foundation" under my XLBGE is cedar 4x4's topped with treated 2x10's and supported underneath with angle iron brackets, like floor joists, all topped with fire brick.
The cedar 2x10's under my MiniMax are supported the same way, with the angle iron.
My horse could stand on it, and it's not gonna burn down my house, but thanks for the concern.

@SoCal_Griller, I drain it into a bucket under the sink...thought about connecting it to a garden hose to feed into a flower bed nearby... I didn't want to tear up the concrete patio beneath it to create an actual septic drain.Iowa, 1 BGEXL, 1BGEMiniMax, a truck, a camper and some horses and atvs Let's play!

@JNJGoeders, I hope you know I didn't really think you were using the tiki fuel in the eggs. I like your setup, it looks like a really fun place to cook.Lawrenceville, GA

That is a nice setup, but if you don't have one, you should get a table next to give you a gap between the egg and the wood. I had mine sitting on a paver in a wood table, and the heat transferred through the stone and burnt the table a bit. Air gap fixed that problem. Cheers!XL & Mini & knock off medium.

Is putting the nest directly on wood a good idea? I think you may still need some type of paver.Snellville, GA

But I have a metal pan under mine, but it's mostly to keep embers from burning the table.

@JNJGoeders believe me the small amount of frustration to get it right is well worth the piece of mind. Especially if you are one to not keep a close eye on your egg during cooks. Quite a few pictures of burnt decks, tables and houses around here. Better safe than sorry. Your husband did a great job so he shouldn't be discouraged. Just a minor adjustment for the long term safety.Snellville, GA

That is a really nice setup, and I like the sink and faucet. Beautiful woodwork. Do you rent out your husband?
