Thanks! Haha. I'll add that to the list of experience on my resume! How is China? Probably the best crab Rangoon ever!

I'm not actually worried about the heat. It has over two inches of clear space before the wood. The exhaust temp will be relatively cool by the time it gets to the kick up and there is a fair amount of air moving over it going down the road. Time will tell if I am wrong though.
