Ordered a Rutland Gasket for me and a fellow egger so just wanted to say Thanks to Ron @RRP for all of his help and quick response. I'll be installing mine in a couple weeks so I'll post completed pics.

Ron is the best. Got mine on the other weekend and LOVE it!

I am in talks with him now about a new gasket for my large. I still have the original gasket that came with mine.

Great guy and great product!

Did any of you put a gasket around the top of your egg where the daisy wheel sits?

I need to get one for my Mini Max.Steve

I have a generic gasket around the top of the Egg to help seal the wheel/cap against unwanted air. In my head I think that helps the Egg shut down after a cook. I doubt it is true but...

I ordered a Rutland from Ron, got it within 2 days with full instructions. Highly recommended. Definite upgrade to the stock gaskets.

I'm still a fan of the old school gasket. Took the Rutland I had on and returned to the felt. Tried several times to remove the gap that I had with the Rutland gasket, from the back of my egg. Not sure if I stretched the Rutland gasket when I installed it or what. I had it for quite some time. Since returning to the old gasket, no issues. I also put a piece of the felt gasket on the upper vent. It secures the daisy wheel and the top cap; nice tight fit. I may return to Rutland for another try when this felt seal starts to fail.

that being said, not sure if either matters a whole lot, some guys here don't even use a gasket (or hell, some don't even use a Daisy wheel or anything else on top) but that's too rebellious for me. -

Ok I sent Ron a message this morning and ordered my gasket. It shipped today. I can't wait to put it on and see how much better it is.

Gotta say I habe bought them from Ron and just did another as my brother in law was so impressed it's all he's been asking for. Installing it for him this weekend as a present.
