Just joined the club.

Hi, I just joined the club but have been a Weber enthusiast for a while now. Just this summer I purchased (and sold) 3 kettles and just purchased a Weber Performer Deluxe (gen 3) for $60. It needed a bit to work but I am almost done restoring it to near new condition.

I also own a 3D printer and have started designing and printing some stuff to use with it. Check out some of my latest designs below.

The first is a handle for the damper and the second one is a tool hook that clips on to the leg of the performer table. I have not figured out how to insert images here yet but hopefully the links above work.

I look forward to sharing my ideas as well as learning more about the WKC.

Cheers,
KP

Ive asked here before if anyone knew how to use a 3d printer, do you think you could make replacement white walls for the wheels? They would be cool printed in different colors of plastic. If you make one, I have access to a 3d printer at the local library.

And btw, welcome from Topeka kansas

KP, that's cool. What kind of printer are you using? I've got a couple of MakerBot printers in the studio. I'm brand new to the group, too.

Welcome from Highland Park, IL (north of Chicago)! Sweet mod for the performer! I'm sure you'll find ways to mod other parts - people here love that stuff.

Should be easy to make, basically a donut shaped disc? Send me the dimensions, I sold my classic kettle when I got a performer so I can't get the measurements myself. I still love the looks of the 3-leg stand design but just don't have the room for it.

I will make an attempt. I had a caliper, but Idk where I put it
