Hello everyone!
Thanks for letting me join the group. Recently got a very sweet deal from a dealer on a XL BGE ($970 for the Egg, plate-setter, grate lifter, BGE 10lb bag of charcoal, and some BGE fire-starters) and I was able to get some help from my venue carpenter building a great table! I was on this forum day and night researching various egg discussions and ideas for tables to help create mine, and wouldn't have the knowledge I have now without all of y'all that contribute to this forum. I've place some pictures below for everyone's enjoyment and for anyone else looking for some ideas if they are in the process as well.
Below:Leaving the store with some eggcessories!

Tables Top Shelf Framed Out at : 60"x32":

Bottom Shelf Installed:

Table Build Complete: Top Installed and Egg Hole Cut Out, 4" HD Casters Installed:

First Coat with Cabot's Stain - Mahogany:
Second Coat of Stain and Egg installed:

Thanks again for providing a great source of knowledge for a new EggHead!

Yes on the multiple pizzas at one time, or multiple calzones, pastries (anything baked). We recommend keeping new Eggs under 400° for first 5 cooks.
I personally have become a big fan of the XL, it is a beast of a cooker. Nice choice.
