    Stand and Canopy has arrived!

    As some of you may know I am in the process of setting up a new 210.

    I was going to build my stand/hood, but really didnt have the time and wanted something nice for the formal living area, so I decided to have one built.

    Well I recieved it yesturday and WOW!!! It is nicer then I even expected it to be. The quality is TOP NOTCH and way above anything I could of produced.

    The reason I wanted to let everyone know is because of the price. Got Stand / Canopy built to my specs with extra doors and the height I requested, split lid, etc. for less then I could of bought a standard aga setup for... shipping included!!!

    Unfortunately my camera is on the blink so I can get any pics of mine as it site and im in the process of staining it so I won't be able to get any pics in its raw form, but I will borrow a camera from work tomorrow and get some pics of it done.

    Here are a couple of standard pics he sent me before I ordered. Mine is pretty much like this except I added doors on the ends and hinged my hood doors to lift up.







    So if anyone is looking to have something built at a very reasonable price let me know and I will forward you the info.

    Really nice to see some quality produts..

    Very nice! I really like the access doors on the end of the stand. Whether you stain it or not, I'd definitely coat the inside with poly-something-or-other to protect the wood from salt water soaking in.
