Mcs v.2017.00.00

[Mr. Bones]

Let's show off our purchases, so far, for 2017.

I'll start the ball t' rollin':
Found a smoker that I've been really wantin' t' try, so I bit th' bullet, an' pulled th' trigger...

It took nuthin' less than my 2nd biggest pry-bar to get my wallet prized open for such an expenditure, but I did it, after some considerable vacillation.

Here she is, in alla her Glory. (Notice how I digitally marked some of th' photos with my RH fingerprints?)

To Wit:











What say ye, did I done good? Or shoulda' I just went t' MakudoNarudo 2-3 times with my hard-earned $$?

>>BTW: C- Code, 1981, first year of production.

Looks good. Let us all know it works for you.

[RonB]

That looks like a good deal to me.

[tbob4]

You did right! It looks like it is in one piece. Nothing here goes on "the lists" at that price unless something is wrong with it. The only obligation that goes with that are the food photos that will go with the pick-up. Oh, before trying it out, you have to do the "happy dance" around it.

[Mr. Bones]

tbob4 All it is missing is th' charcoal holder. Needs (don't they all?) a new charcoal grate... but totally serviceable. Not bad for 36 yrs old, sez I!) ;-)

[tbob4]

As they say - they don't build them today as well as they did, yesterday!

[EdF]

Looks like another great deal. Way to start out the year!

[fuzzydaddy]

I think you did good on that one! Congrats. I noticed that the ad says "..used but smokes good". My wife may have said that about me on more than one occasion.

fuzzydaddy, It sounds like we are both married to Narrow Minded Women?

Good deal for sure and now you have another toy to play with.

[FireMan]

Where's the little red cooler?

[Mr. Bones]

FireMan it's still in th' back o' th 'Bourbon, my Brother, lol! Thanks fer rememberin' me!

[RonB]

Congrats on finding a deal.

[MBMorgan]

Nice goin' Bones!

[Spinaker]

I just picked up some new Grill grates for the KEG, just today. They should arrive on Tuesday.

I also picked up a new 6.5 Quart, Red, enamel coasted Dutch Oven. On sale for $49.99 The MCS god were smiling down on me.

[Mr. Bones]

Spinaker Beautiful Dutch Oven!!! Where'd ya find such a great deal??? I'm in th' market fer one! ;-)

[Spinaker]

Ace hardware. I went in to buy wire nuts and some solder. Ended up with a Dutch Oven. Mr. Bones

[Mr. Bones]

@Spinaker
Thanks fer th' tip, Amigo!!! I got one comin' in th' mail !!! ;-)

[Shane Rakow]

What size ya' got there, Mr Bones? Looks like a winner to me!

[Mr. Bones]

Shane Rakow
Even though it's coolish out of doors, I went out n' took a snap fer ya'!
As I've mentioned b'fore, th' lil' work-issued iPud don't take no good low/no light pics, but here it is: 18.5, Goldilocks sized!!!

tbob4 here's how I looked after doin' th' 'happy dance' around her! :

[Spinaker]

Bones!!!!!!
Are you gonna replace that door, or stick with old rusty? Hope all is well buddy.

[FireMan]

Would getting a new door constitute a MCS purchase?

[Mr. Bones]

FireMan That would be an affirmative, 10-4, 4-10, Roger that, definitely yuppers, by my definition of MCS purchase.

[Spinaker]

For sure!!
