OK, I've had my WSMC for two years now. It sits outside on brick
pavers. I've never beat on it, knocked it around, dumped it over, or even laid the top on the ground upside-down. But yet, the flaps on the vent covers are bent this way or that. Are they self-bending? Anybody else have this problem? -Zz |

Like you, they never get banged up and yet I will go out to fire it up and find they are nearly flattened. The darn rabbits or squirrels must be messing around my WSM. I don't know. BBQ |

I've a similar problem on my gas-fired bullet; I think it's just heat-differential leading to warping.
