[quote][b]BBQEd,[br]This Lowe's cart is a great idea. I read your posting last week and went out a bought a cart at my local Lowe's. I set mine up alittle different. First I built the cart per the instructions, then I got 2 pieces of 1 1/2" steel angle[br]and bolted them to side of the cart at the correct hieght to allow the hinge to clear the granite. I built a second shelf using 2 x 8's setting in the angle. This stiffen the cart up considerably. I placed some tile on the shelf where the egg will sit so it won't burn the wood. This works well and the cart looks professionly done. Now I have a 2 shelf table with my egg sitting on the second shelf with the tile to prevent burning the wood. [p]I move my egg alot so I didn't want to scatch the green finish on the granite. I went to local BGE store and bought some felt to line the circular opening in the granite. This works very well and looks professional.[p]I've tried to descibe this build as best I can, if I could figure out how to post pictures I would. If someone can help me with that I'll show the pictures. [p][/b][br][/quote]

BBQEd	Just Plain Mike, I don't know much about JB Weld so I can't say whether or not it will work. I will say that you should look at Gatoregg's table as his idea is far better than what I did.
BBQEd	GatorEgg, That cart is awesome!!! I might have to change my plans after seeing this. Thanks!
BBQEd	Photo Egg, That is really nice! I kind of like it better than my box idea.
eggerave	BBQEd, I bought the cart at Lowes and discovered someone went nuts with a screw gun and hex driver. Boggered up the heads on 10 bolts. I started trying to match the pot metal bolts and found out they are SAE not metric threads. The bolts for the frame are 1/4X20 thread. Hope this saves someone else some time.
Photo Egg	BBQEd, Here are some photos from GatorEggs cart modifications.
Photo Egg	GatorEgg, Send the photos my way and I will post them. I have checked my local Lowe's and did not find the cart. The on-line web site was no help either. Darian
