Thanks for the responses!
I'm awaiting a stainless steel shelf to replace the smoked plexiglass. I used sch80 ABS 3/4"ID pipe. 3/8" all thread rod for the axel and will have some custom wheel inserts from Laserzon designed. Still playing around with the ashtray.
I want to give credit to R Shack BBQ/Louis Trim for his YouTube video on his 26" Performer build for the inspiration

Looks great! Did you ever end up replacing the tabletop?

I scrapped it and dropped it in an SSP frame

How did the plexiglas hold up to the temps of the kettle? I recently replaced the original plastic table on my performer with the newer metal one. Initially, I was considering building a butcher's block tabletop instead but that didn't seem as weatherproof and I don't always remember to put the cover back on
