Bromeliad, your exterior job looks nice and I am also interested in how the "Quickrete Concrete Bonding Adhesive" worked out. I presume it is a high heat coating. I am discussing with Rutland engineers with regard to some of their coating and to their sales people re our offering some of their products to our customers

Wonderful, SELL something to your customers to repair their defective cookers. And the really sad part is they will probably thank him. |

He probably asked them if it will bond to portland cement and lava rock.  |

| Yes, in all likelihood, he sent a message using the "Contact Customer Service" button on the Rutland website. Some flunky will probably tell him some BS and RJ will then claim that he discovered it. |

Gee guys, give him a little credit based on his track record. 
He probably is trying to contact them about selling their product. He is likely asking for terms on his first delivery of the product, too. That way, he can sell it and never pay for it...just like with the guru and half of his own products.
See....its just more of the same. |

Nice to know he was so nice to the Rutland engineers. He can be rather demanding at other times:

...I have absolutely no binding contract with Conway. In fact I am sooooo PO right now with them, you can't believe. The big heavy weights from Conway came up to kiss my a$$ and then went back to LA and raised our classification from 60 to 70 without even notifying us. They came up with some BS about "knock-down" rates for class 60. Well our Kamados are knock down....the lid comes off, the cart comes off etc. I know they will go back to class 60 but what a way to do business. I told the VP that we are not shipping to a bunch of idiots, but in 99% of the cases, responsible business or professional people. Over 7 years! And do you think we are bad about not getting through on telephone calls or returning calls....try calling James Dellamaggiore, Director of Pricing.... |
I'm sure the Conway "heavy weights" came scrambling like he was Amazon. Hopefully Rutland will have some heavy weights to keep him happy. Maybe some of their chemists could intern under RJ someday. Either there or Los Alamos. |

If you look at the full post to Bromeliad on sunday,August 24,2008 he goes on babbling about how "rutland has good products and are used on BGE as well as ours"Yeah rutland just for a gasket on BGE,on his cooker it's to repair a defective piece of cement,,,hmmmmm i think he's falling apart just like his cookers,also look at his explanation "Years ago people used their kamados for thanksgiving and Christmas.Now many use of use use the 3 or 4 times a week and year round.Hopefully a little maintenance,such as this, will be in the picture."
He's done!!!!! |

| I don't think Conway will deal with RJ any more (That post was in 2003), that is who we were using here in Atlanta and last I heard RJ hadn't paid his bill (Surprise, surprise). I even tried to see if they would sell me the remaining supply of charcoal (the good stuff) but they said it all goes somewhere to be auctioned off. |

| And of course Conway wouldn't tell you where this shipment was being auctioned.I can think of someone who might be interested in buying it and relabeling it!! |

I thought they had sued him... |
|
|
|
But when I looked at the case it was "Pro-Service Forwarding" that sued them in March 2007. Hm... just before they fled to Vegas.
Pro-Service Forwarding Lawsuit

| Yeah, the people I talked to had no clue where it went to be auctioned. Probably not even here in GA. |

Yet another RJ contradiction |
|
|

Compare this post, which I came across while researching repair techniques, to the quotes from RJ above...

Rickf, our container of KEC (Extruded Coconut) is coming into the port of San Pedro June 7, and to be delivered ASAP to our new logistic warehouse in Torrance. It might be convenient to meet up around this time for your M61. By the way, there is no comparison between M61 and Rutland furnace cement. |
I guess since RJ is trying to make a deal with Rutland, we are to assume this is the best product? |
