Title: Craigslist $10 find
Post by: Kneab on July 27, 2016, 05:54:03 PM
Just picked up a an OTS  off Craigslist.
The grill is an 03 OTS guy even through in the Weber tool hangers for the bowl and a large Weber starting can that has started maybe 1 bag of charcoal it's whole life.
10th Weber and it was 10 bucks.

He had a new performer and didn't want to keep the OTS.
I guess he doesn't have the Weberitis yet😊

I'll post pics soon.

10th Weber, huh?  I had quit at 4.  Looks like I need to get back in the game.  Nice find!

Thanks. I have been looking over my 03 OTG I think I am going to use the bowl from this 03 silver and then the ash catcher and the lid from the OTG. The welds cracked on the OTG leg sockets years ago. I am no welder but am good with a tap and drill so I reattached them with stainless steel screws. The bowl also has a couple other holes started at the bottom. And the legs are pulling the metal apart on the bottom of the bowl.

The bowl sweeps from the OTG will go into the brownie I am going to start cleaning up. And I'm going to sell the starting can tomorrow for 10 bucks so the kettle full of parts is free. Hate to loose the second handle off the bowl but broken legs are worse than giving up the 2nd handle. Also the silver has an ash pan in good condition for the brownie rebuild.
