Title: Pass it on
Post by: VAis4BBQers on May 12, 2015, 07:21:43 AM: I found a nice deal on an 18" silver. Picked her up for $10 this morning along with a chimney. I think I'm going to clean it up real good and pass it on to my brother who hasn't been introduced to a kettle yet. Really not in too bad shape for sitting outside for 7 years. Ash pan and grates were there as well.

Hell it might be time for my meds too...

Post by: mrbill on May 12, 2015, 06:34:07 PM: it's just because of the perspective(ie-angle/height of shot relative to size/height/placement of objects)
