how to use the BGE folding grate

Well it started with ron calling lit a moron and went downstairs from there.

If you must recap, please do so correctly. 

He did NOT call him a moron!

He called him a lying moron with a proclivity toward questionable sexual behavior regarding livestock as well as being the product of unwed parents.

There was also some mention of Lit's ties to the Communist Party in the nation of Ebola.

That's what I heard.

Good going, anything @RPP 'touches' gets interesting, first the TimeStick, now the Grid Extender, next?   

Ask @EggerinLA‌

Take a step back folks. You're arguing over a bbq grid.


A bbq grid.

Good grief. [-(

That's like, your opinion man!

She's hot. Seriously.

Perhaps. 

She is 68 years old.   =D>

Doesn't mean she isn't 'hot', of course.

Livestock never question sexual behavior.  

I never got that extender working on my CI grate. Need to find where I put that original grate...

I got one of those grate extenders. Figured out how to work it, but was never really a fan. I mainly used mine to get a raised direct set up before I got my AR. Can't get to the food on the bottom unless you move all the food on the top to one side and then flip it over. Such a pain. It will fit on top of the AR rig though in a large egg if you really need some extra space, however.

 

Where is TRiehle when you need him.

1.3k views is pretty good for a straightforward post on how to properly fold out the legs on the folding grate.  I can only imagine what the traffic and persistence would be if it had been titled "BGE folding grate......how I do it"

I saw @Lit complaint about the BGE folding grate. That complaint is common, but it is incorrect! 

With all due respect Ron, what makes your opinion on a product "correct" over another?

I own a folding grate but would never purchase another. Knowing what I know now I would rather use a Woo or a second grid with 3 bolts as legs. This lets me remove it to get to the lower grate as well as easily move the cooking grid 180 degrees and not shift the lower.

The quality of the BGE folding grate also depends on the fabrication and fitting of all the wire bends. If they are off it does not fit well.

I'm glad you like yours but don't see that it gives you the right to call out another opinion as "incorrect". IMO

On another note. With your browser open on your MAC, hold down the "command" key and press the "+" or "-" key to enlarge the text/page in your browser. Really helps with smaller text on forums and such.

WOW - I sure didn't expect that, Darian! I've seen and heard people try to just fold the legs out and expect it to stand without springing it tight and then it falls. When I read @Lit complaint about it I just offered my solution as a suggestion. I hardly think that was calling someone out.

When you called him by name you called him out. By suggesting his complaint was incorrect you pretty well told him that he didn't know what he was doing. Wether you meant it this way or not, this is how your post came across.

I've used mine for years w/o a problem.  Nice for those few inches when desired.  

I'm late to the dance here (damn work).. @RRP I did not see anything offensive in your response, just trying to be helpful as always. Good advice. My issue with the folding grate (I've had two) is that over time it becomes less sturdy, requiring you to extend the legs further out on the grid, until you are hooked on the outside ring, and only raised about an inch. I've since gone to an AR setup which works better for me. For each his own.
