New RT700 Owner + custom rig

[Mpg123]

spent the last 3 weeks building the rig (cedar w/ porcelain tile top) in prep for the 700 (arrived today). Gonna break her in tonight with the initial 400 degree smoke and then hit some ribs this weekend. Happy to have joined the RecTec family!

Great looking set up. Welcome to the madness.

I like the looks of that. Was it difficult to make?

Wasn't bad, maybe about 18 hours total. I used this video as a template:

. Ultimately I made mine about 8 inches wider, and didn't enclose the back (I wanted better airflow).

Here’s mine. I was halfway through building the table for the kamado Joe when Christmas rolled around and my wife bought me the 700 so I had to call an audible. Turned out great but it’s heavy!! I still have to put the bands on the Joe and have a top cut and put on that side. The dome was just sitting there for picture sake and is back in the shop.

Nice recovery. I noticed how you positioned the wheels and overhang off the patio to keep the wheels on the patio and keep the door from the house clear. Slick.

Badass build. You've got the best of both worlds right there.
