    bought myself one of those wooden handled BGE forked grill scraper. did cheese burgers for Jimmy Buffet day and the grill was a mess the next morning. This should solve that the next time it happens. Dunno why they make the things 37 feet long, barely fits in my bucket-o-stuff.
    Since giving up on my CI grates a few months ago, I've started using my forked scraper more.  Although it takes a bit longer, it is very thorough at cleaning off the SS grates.  The length doesn't bother me (that's what she said).

    accept your opponent.  a duel for the ages.  

    accompanying overdub will be barley and hops fueled outlaw country. 60% word accuracy 100% heart. 

    not sure if warrants a thread in table forum.  like the result so far.  cut off around 1” of rot on one leg.

    I would definitely slide a paver under that and let it down.

  • I would definitely slide a paver under that and let it down.  
    i agree the shortened leg looks death defying!  instead of the included screws i mounted with ss thru bolts and fender washers.  so the mount is strong and the threaded foot is also still sturdy at that length.  i do agree, i could reduce the extension of that foot and have a paver in there.  definitely need to preserve the air gap between wood and ground/paver.  never miss an opportunity to take a diy project to surviving global thermonuclear events.

     I was thinking the same thing, running bolts through would help. I am sure it is fine being a table. looks good sir

    Makeup Brushes.

    Wife complained that daughter kept using her makeup brushes.  So I ordered 3 full brand new sets.  1 for the wife, 1 for the daughter, and a backup because this isn’t my first rodeo.

    My daughter totally outsmarted me today. I had left the brushes on the coffee table, and when my wife asked if hers had arrived, I went to grab them—only to find they were all gone! I turned the house upside down looking for them. Finally, I asked my daughter if she had seen them. She casually said, ‘Oh, the ones on the coffee table? Yeah, I thought you got them for me.’

    My response was, ‘I did! I got each of you a set and a backup. So, where are they?’ (They come in boxes.)

    Her reply? ‘Oh, I thought they were all mine, so I opened them and used them already.’

    That was enough brushes to last six months!
    its alright @Ozzie_Isaac , just walk out to the money tree she knows you have hidden in the desert and pick you a few more C notes off the ground. It is fall and they should be piling up for you to rake them in a pile.
    Have:

    Added the paver which pulled the extension back a lot— from there i really appreciated the flexibility in dialing in level.  Thanks for the nudge!

    My only other suggestion was to cut the other legs down to level it out but you would be losing elevation.

    This idea approaches the fringe of blasphemy and also the haircut of the Las Vegas Raiders owner.

    I have a rotten leg on my pole barn, I would say it’s sunk about 3 inches based on the eve line. I am thinking along the lines of what you posted (not quite as fancy) or creating a 4x6 form above ground and making a concrete support to tie to.

    I have the same in my carport, and am brainstorming drizzling a solution; @Buckwoody Egger s post has me thinking possible solutions.

    Yep, I’ve been putting it off for too long. I also have to figure out the temporary support, I think it’s about 14’ to the header.

    Great choice, be careful, it is definitely a rabbit hole

    Inventory hit the low-level alarm-just ordered a SRF Black brisket (12-14 lbs).  
    The once a year Gold is in the queue for the post Thanksgiving turkey hangover brisket cure.  The following Saturday or Sunday is when it happens, depending on schedules well beyond mine to address.

    It’s about $4.30 for super/premium near the house.  I think regular was $2.49 at Bucees.
