I think folks are unsure if you're really Sunny Moberg. It wouldn't be the first time someone created an account here to troll posters.

What about the look was discussed? Because Moberg, Franklin, Mill Scale, El Cucaracho, and dozens more make pits that look a like.

That would be an amazing measured response from a troll.

I think the title is where the OP mentions a likeness to moberg. I don't think there is anything wrong with it as many pit builders have this basic design. Maybe I'd feel different if I had someone making something similar to my design.

The OP didn't offend me at all. It's the full contradiction of his DM on IG and the phone call I had with him. Saying "I'm going for my own look not to be a copycat" and then in this post basically saying he's copying me completely with improvements. I'm honestly flattered people want to copy some of my design features. It's the way he went about it in private. Shows character, that's all. Remember this, your vehicle doesn't have an air restrictor to control speed. Fuel delivery is key, same with a smoker. I mean it when I say I wish him well.

In the OP's defense, he did defend you recently on another thread when I called your recent backyard smoker line over priced (which I stand behind), but I'm a capitalist, so if your pits can bring that kind of money I'm all for it. Just saying he has no ill feelings towards you, or if he does, he hid it well.

Oh, and I'm in on the bump!


Just got back around to this thread. Correct. Zero ill will or feelings, I look up to and respect Moberg, he set the standard, which I've told him. Everyone is chasing his success. For those hoping for drama, there will be none.

I let Moberg know I've never even seen one of his pits in person, so there's no copying or inside information being used against him, because I don't have any. So if someone is ripping off his pits, it's not me. I've never spoken to Sunny on the phone and our conversations via Instagram are limited with most of them partaining to me asking his advice on getting started in the pit building industry, and how best to approach pricing on pits since I'm new to the game. To which he was gracious and answered.

As for the personal attacks on my character they're uncalled for and frankly shouldn't be made by someone who doesn't even know me. We both agreed to write this off as a misunderstanding and let it be water under the bridge.
