I have had my Egg for about a month. Looked over lots of pictures and plans, bought a stack of lumber, and dove into it this week. It is not perfect, but I am really pleased with the result. Used pressure treated pine for the frame, and cedar for the tops with a couple of ceramic inlays (need a place to set the hot Paella pan). Also on the advice of the guy at Home depot, I used stainless steel screws, as the PT lumber supposedly dissolves lesser screws.
One negative, I built to the dimensions on the Green Egg web site for an XL Table (32 x 60"), and bought the XL table cover. Just to be safe checked the cover over the frame before laying the top and found it barely fit. No room for nice hanging hooks or other stuff on the outside. Had to downsize the top to 31" and the cover barely fits.
Doing Pizza tomorrow, first attempt, I plan to post some pics
