I just got this in the mail today. My wife says it is soooooo cute. Can't wait to cook on it. Guess which beer is for the little guy and the drum!

I was just looking at one the other day myself. I always see them in Phu's posts and figured it would be a nice addition. Good thing you have a beer for all cookers.

You know, a beer for every cooker is extremely important!!!

Very nice. Just remember, alcohol absorbs differently based on mass.

Also, what is going on with the UDS? I don't think I have seen that before. Is that a kettle bottom with the legs cut off and the dome cleaned up with some fancy smoke stacks? I can't believe I haven't seen that before.

You have not seen a UDS like Marty's the hinge alone is a work of art.

Yuppers. That is a bottom. I wanted to put in my own designed ribolator/merry go round without having to put in an insert. A higher lid was the solution. Works great as the lid works kinda like an Egg with a lot of heat reflection. I am very happy with it.

Obviously not. Is there a thread on your creation somewhere Marty?

Looks great, Marty. The handles definitely complete it.

Thanks. That is really slick. I have been trying to come up with a simple, easy to fab hinge design. Currently I just steal hinges off small portable grills with hinged lids. Your design is very cool. Sadly I think I will have to come up with a whole new system because of the new cooking cart I am putting together. Regardless, thanks for the info and new perspective.

The hinged cover on the UDS is completely bad a$$. The handles also look great :thumb: Get that little pup up and cooking!

Marty, I agree with brother Phu...the WGA is tiny, but it is strong. Give that bad boy a real beer!!

Man, those wood handles are way better than the plastic ones!!

Phu and Padawan were my inspirations for a WGA. They can cook anything and everything on those little guys!

I just hope I don't burn the hamburgers.....
