Title: Finally done
Post by: gchenworth on June 16, 2018, 06:49:36 PM
with the table I started around the beginning of the year... still a couple things to do like adding some hooks and maybe a beer opener.  But I'm loving cooking on it.

That thing kicks ass. About how much does the top weigh?

The top is concrete.  I recall calculating that it was just under 300 lbs

The hose feeds the sink so cold water only. I've got a y at the spigot so during warm months I keep the hose pressurized at all times.  I've get an 8 gallon bucket underneath to collect water.  Primary use of sink is to wash hands.  But that's a big deal to me. Everything where I need it instead of running in and out of the house 20 times in order to cook a steak...

Thanks for the kind words... I'm really liking it...

I love the idea of the sink built in. And the counter space is amazing. You're right - don't want to have to run inside to wash hands 100 times each session. Looking at the plumbing at my house they put soft water to the spigot in the back. I always thought it would have been cool if they did both
hot/cold water too.

Wow that is awesome. My woodworking skills are about 3/10 but I've been dreaming of taking on a project like this.

@Gunslinger2071 the frame is made with 2x6 and 4x4's. I bought a cheap pocket screw jig at lowes and that's all there is to the frame. I built th doors but you can buy those along with drawer at barker doors. Plywood panels cut a little smaller than the openings, again secured with pocket screws. And quarter round trim to hide the gaps. Then stain / weather sealer to pretty it up.  Everything but the cabinets doors require very limited woodworking skills. The concrete top was a little more technical but that wasn't really difficult either.  The plans were from a custom table for a bge. I can post a link if you're interested.

My original post shows the structure of the frame. Nothing fancy here.  http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-grill-modifications-customs/grill-table-for-weber-kettle/

Looks Great.  It's exactly the idea I'm working with now.  Do you have some better pictures of how you installed the gas assist?

Sorry. I don't have better pictures. But I removed and cut the plate from the performer with the controls for the gas assist. I secured it to the structure inside the door and fished everything around as necessary between the cabinet under the kettle and the adjacent cabinet holding the glass tank
