Most people think I'm crazy for taking the plunge now as snowflakes begin to fly here in the Midwest, but as they say "better late than never." First I want to say thanks to every single person that has posted pictures of their tables and plans on this forum. I got a lot of the ideas for my table from browsing all the posts and ultimately made the choice difficult on the final product. The table isn't quite done yet, however I hope to be cooking by the weekend. I'm open to any comments, criticisms or questions, have at it 
And again THANKS for all the previous posts as it's awesome to see how everyone has made theirs their own.

Welcome! I purchased my Egg around this same time last year - just in time to cook for the holidays. It is an amazing cooking machine that is less affected by cold weather than anything I've ever cooked on.

Looks good and welcome.

Yeah, you are in it now. As you have already begun the trail, I suppose there is no need to remind you how the cost to get in is way less than the cost to stay.

Thanks YukonRon. I knew this all along, however my wife I think it starting to realize it.

It is all about having fun. WELCOME! Anyone have good advice from over the years on keeping loved ones at bay or will the cooking do the job as I expect it to? Newbie with LG BGE, learning one slow cook at a time! -

Yeah my mom loves sewing and so she and I did it after we devoured the turkey. Turned out pretty good and was only about $60 for the materials.pgprescott said:Nice custom cover. Local made? Oh nice food too. Well done!Newbie with LG BGE, learning one slow cook at a time! -
