Time to take a sledge hammer to them, they are toast, ready for the final trip to the dump.

Photos of the destruction, please. A closeup of a few chunks would be ideal. RJ has recently stated that there is no chicken wire in his cookers. I think some evidence to the contrary would be appropriate.

Better yet, how about a video of sledgehammer meets POSK?

Thanks in advance. Wink

I have an older #7 that's dead that I will be MORE than happy to destroy for a video.. It might take me a bit, but I'll video it's demise.

So, for the upcoming video we need to be aware of the myths that we are dispelling.. Let's start listing them and the ways we want to ram them up Richard's ass:

1) No chicken wire. This one should be easy.
2) Tiles don't fall off. I've got one that started losing tile after a couple months.

3) "Ceramic" -- pfeh -- its concrete. Not sure how to do this one except to speculate.

Anything else?

How about having a piece analyzed?

This way it would be official. How about dynamite meets POSK for a Kamado explosion? Twisted Evil

Have it tested?

I would be happy to donate a few dollars toward the cost of testing. Just to see the certified results posted here.

I don't know how much value is to be had from having one of his older cookers tested. We really need to know what his 2008 models are made from. He claims he is using new materials, but we suspect he adulterates it to make it cheaper. I think a visual close up of the cross section will show that his older cookers are cement and lava rock. Ceramic doesn't have rocks embedded in it....

Rocks?

I still have some old pictures of my #1 from when I brought it home. One time I even fit a 12 lb. wild turkey in it. I found those pictures too. I remember that I was surprised that it was gray when I was expecting white. It was also very rough inside. I am not sure if I remember any rocks embedded in it, but they may have been very fine and small? Confused

Chiro, you definitely have identified the biggies. But, if your K is cracked in any places, it might be worthwhile to explore the condition of the chicken wire in those locations... is it broken, corroded? Is it corroded in areas that are not cracked?

And, be sure to closely inspect the spider and threaded post and the lower vent guides, and the casters. See how well they're anchored. Are they corroded?

Though, if your cooker is cracked and your spider is corroded, it'll just reveal that you didn't follow proper shut down procedure. Shocked Isn't that right, Harry? Confused

Well, yes and no. Catching him in a bald faced lie about the hundreds (or perhaps even a thousand) cookers he sold before 2008 may be more significant than catching him possibly lying about the few he sold in 2008, the total of which can probably be counted on one hand.

Besides, there may be victims of his pre-2008 claims that might want to know about, and have tangible proof of, false advertising.

Unfortunately, I suspect that such analysis is probably quite specialized and expensive.

Hell, someone could mix up some portland cement and crushed lava rock and see if they simply make a little slab the looks identical to the cooker. That might be enough. You could take a BGE pizza stone and break it to show what ceramic looks like.

So do you think they crush the lava rocks themselves? What color were they? I would think that they would buy pre-crushed in bags. But with RJ who knows? Confused
