Grimace, JR: Plum 18.5 Master Touch

[DrewZ]

First and foremost, big thanks to @CatskillSmoker for a fantastic trade.  This came to me as a beautiful and exceptionally clean Plum 18.5 One Touch Silver.  I had some spare parts lying around, so I decided to use them. 

Stage 1: install lid bale and ash bucket from my former Plum 18.5 OTP. 

Stage 2:  Add cedar Zav handles, painted ash bucket and OTG triangle and homemade wood lid rollers.  I don't know if it's just me, but there's something about Stage 2 that reminds me of a certain team that plays in Blacksburg, VA . . .

Beautiful looking kettle!

Very sweet! Looks great! I did the same to my 18 blue wave. Didn't have the bale strap, though, so I had to manipulate a 22" strap to fit.

That looks fantastic. It's great colour. I love my 18" platinum that I got from Charlie

I'm happy to hear you're still loving it, Darko.  Post pics when you can, I really love the plum color.

I still have to get around to making a new table for it. But I will post some pics soon.

Great looking OTG!  I'd love to find a maroon that I could build into a tribute to that specific team

Thanks for the link, but no ship to Canada.  I'm still on the fence about making one out of pine or perhaps even sheathed in copper.
