Egger @Hotch was so kind to give me his Egg Carten and would not take any money for it though they sold for $140. Besides that he wouldn't even let me pay him for the UPS shipping clear up from Texas. WHAT A GUY!!!
Here's #53 holding my Mini waiting for a trip in the near future! 


Thanks again Hotch! You da man!

    Hotch gave me the link to the recipe for CinChili. Best chili EVER! Worth way more than an egg carten! :rofl:

    But seriously, that was very generous of him. He should be good for Rutlands for life!

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Mighty fine gesture Hotch.  Ron, over the years, I'm pretty sure you have given more help than received grief on these forums.  Pretty sure on that ratio!  Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.  Looks great!

    That's awesome. What a tremendous gesture. Also happy to see a good deed going to RRP, who has provided gaskets for no reason other than being helpful to fellow eggers. Kudos to you both!

    @RRP Ron glad to see it got there in one piece! Looks good with your Mini. Enjoy my friend, I hope you get many years out of it.
    And thanks all for the good words.
    As I have said many times before, this is what EggHeads do.
    Ron all I ask is just pay it forward if the opportunity ever crosses your path.

    Thanks - as for paying it forward my 15 years now with 3,175 Rutland gaskets has been an ongoing effort to do just that. And guess what? You my friend have a lifetime supply gratis of course, but I just need you to specify size et. al. EDIT: except for eggers actively serving in the military where I give them gratis, I do recover my costs - so I just wanted to clarify.
