i pulled the trigger on the Glen Blue 26

[GregS]

and my bowl is out of round...   

it's not the end of the world, i can still fit the grate in there, it's just tight.  i may call CS to see what they say.

thanks again for the heads up threads when these beauties became available again.  i had a 26er when i lived in the condo and it was just too large for the tiny patio we had.  i always loved cooking on the big boy though so now that we're in a house with a nice sized patio/yard, it's going to see a lot of use.  i have to dig up that bag of unfinished handles brian gave me in a trade for something i'm not remembering.  i may just paint them a close match to glen blue or get fancy with the finish, we'll see. 

grill on WKC!

[Huh??]

Congrats on the new 26'er. I've got the same colors going on in my backyard.
From your picture, the bowl doesn't look too grossly out of round. Maybe give it a few well placed hugs?

I'd be awfully tempted if I didn't already have it in black.

Which one will be the workhorse? I have been using the 26"er exclusively for six years, but now that I have revived my gen 1 Master-Touch, I'm wondering how much use it will get other than for BBQ. I'm finding that 22" really is the Goldilocks size for me.
