Rick, you have no idea

Larry, Got the gaskets, they look great, thanks again!

Andy, The lid has a bit of warping. I think the major cause was the idiot on the belt sander. It's gone now, but there was a knob or casting tit on the underside of the lid. Whoever did it, took the lid and laid it on the belt sander and rocked it around to clean up the edges, and in the process, damaged the gasket surface with a lot of unevenness.
As I write this, I'm thinking I'm gonna go down to the recycler and see if they have a plate big enough to make one. In order to try to clean up this lid it'd take a good long time to get it shimmed right so you cut could it evenly. It would also remove a good bit of the lid thickness
as well. Wish me luck.
