Table complete......for the most part

With the granite top installation this is complete, kind of. Like with projects many of us have built there are a few things I'd do differently if starting over, but it is what it is. Frame is white oak with the frame planed to 1" x 4" and legs
1-3/4" x 4". Granite under the Egg as well as the top is 1-1/4" thick, with the bottom piece polished and the top "leathered". Total weight of this is >400# with the Egg. I would look for 4" casters rather than 3" if doing over, as although I don't have far to move it with each use, it's not easy.
The Egg is or rather was 13 years old. I had a cracked firebox that Bruce warranted and while cleaning out the base I found that it was also cracked. He also warranted the base, so the primary "hot" parts with the exception of the fire ring are new. I opted to update the band & hinge assembly, thermometer and daisy wheel while putting this back together.
Time to fire it up tomorrow!

Really nice table, I like the clean lines. Great job. I agree with you on the wheels, my lanai has concrete pavers and the 3 inch wheels on my cart make moving it rather difficult.Tampa Bay, Florida
