Re: Some completed build pics

Food and smoker look great. With cooks like that I can see a double pan in your future Maybe, but with the added shelf in the mini I feel like I have so much capacity already, it would have to be if I decided to do it commercially. I can cook for 80-100 and I don’t have more friends than that ;-)

I love the dinner bell on your chimney cap - nice touch!
I wish I would have done that ;-). It’s actually a dinner bell mounted on a pole in the background. It’s close enough to where I cook to be useful though.

Some completed build pics

My build was finished at the end of October, but I have been so busy I am just getting back here to post a few pics of the completed build and some of my initial attempts to use my slightly extended mini. Overall: two thumbs way up. I've had a Big Green Egg for years and have often said that it may ...

Last few details to finish a Mini Build

Have looked through the forum and couldn’t find answers to these two questions to finish up the “extended” (adding some height to allow for a 4th rack) mini build that I have in progress: 1 - where are the rivnuts used and are there any alternatives? Having trouble finding someone I can borrow the t...

Re: Shopping list / BOM / Cut list

Its important to mention my cut list shows some 1 3/4" 14 ga tube for frame that i do not see on the plans. I have not built mine yet and its possible all will make sense once I start building. Either way I recommend looking over the plans a few times before buying materials On this^^^ - did you ev...

Re: Shopping list / BOM / Cut list

Build is progressing nicely and should be ready for a test run in a few weeks. Two questions: 1 - I am ordering the parts kit today and according to the site I need to order the large. No problem with that, but since I am building what is the smallest of the GF kits, I was just wondering if that’s r...

Re: Shopping list / BOM / Cut list

Great thanks. Your download was all in one PDF file - build plans and BOM? Just want to make sure I am not missing a second file download somewhere obvious.

Shopping list / BOM / Cut list

I just purchased the mini GF plans. Here we go! Planning to build it 6" taller to add one additional rack and include the shelf for an (eventual) heater meter. Unfortunately, my first question here has to be a dumb one (I promise I searched first): do the regular (non-DXF) Mini GF plans include a sh...
