Title: My Custom One Touch Platinum Dual *** UPDATED! :-) ***
Post by: Shoestringshop on March 11, 2016, 06:51:29 AM
Had some time the past few week so I worked on My Custom One Touch Platinum Dual.

Welded, Mocked-Up, Primed, and Painted. Needed to make a wooded temp so I can have the granite cut.

2 coats of primer
2 coats of paint (With 2 to go)
2-3 coats of clear coat to go

The Primer and Paints used so far.

The pipe is the top of a chain-link fence, Bent using a 1"  conduit bender and I notched it with a step drill bit then cut it 1/2

Very nice! The storage shelf below and the ample workspace of the top take your design to the next level!

I used to have 2 Large BGE's mounted on a wooden table, then onto a Metro cart, and I can tell you that you are going to really enjoy cooking on it!

This was my original idea it was pretty close...

(http://i1167.photobucket.com/albums/q628/dan96/Orginal%20Diagram_zpsspl0iqei.jpg) (http://s1167.photobucket.com/user/dan96/media/Orginal%20Diagram_zpsspl0iqei.jpg.html)

Now as you can see in original idea I was not far off!!!

Built                                 Original
Table Top - 25.5"               Table Top - 25"
Length - 81"                      Length - 69"   
Height - 28.5"                   Height - 28"   

Total I had off is only "Lucky 13" one of my favorite pub in Wisconsin on the way to my place  All came close except for the Length. Weber must heat the pipe up and the bend or stretch and bend. I was not, could not, and just did not care to attempted to try. It so far has turned out just how I wanted ;D
I still need to add the wheels. I need to pickup some front roller wheels from Weber.

So put on the other two coats of paint and clear coat On the frame. Cleaned one grill so far and polished all metal that can be to a mirror finish. Painted ash buckets with 500 degree paint did 4 coats but only two coats on the top 2" did not want it binding up with the heat. I'm going to mount the grill today to the frame and post updated pictuers tonight.

Bought this for my project over the weekend...
(2) "Gourmet BBQ System" Hinged Cooking Grates
(2) Charcoal Grates
All bran new Stainless Steel Bolts, Washers, & Acorn Nuts

This project is costing a few bucks but is should last my lifetime! And it will be one hell of a conversation piece  ;D

I know I have the wood lid bale rollers on any of mine that need them and yes the do "get chewed up" but still look great before hand ;)

@Shoestringshop  Quality job there man, that looks incredible so far! Lookin forward to see you fire this up!

@Jason you think YOU are Lookin forward! I and working my ass off in the morning before work, during work picking up the little things for it like Stainless hardware and the casters from Weber, and then at night when I get home :o.

Look at what I need at night the do my route for the day finding Ace, Menards, Home Depot, Advance Auto, and Hobby Lobby and then picking how to get to my job sites.

Stopped working for the night as I hit my damn hand with a ball peen hammer!!! :o I'll start again in the morning. Going to have a Scotch on the rocks and go to bed ;).

My brother and I measure the difficulty of a job in the number of hammers. Trip to the hardware store, adds a hammer. Bust your nuckles, adds a hammer. Hit your hand with a ball peen hammer... Well you get the idea.

So everyone I ordered my Granite Wednesday and I needed to go with a company other than the one I was originally talking to. The original company would not return my phone calls??? I was going to go over to the location and no address listed just the city they are in? Screw them >:(!

The other company was $100.00 more but I will at least get my granite :).

Onsite I looked at what they where tossing out and found some very nice pieces of granite but needed to be cut down. I took them home and cut one down to fit a get this (Old Steel Fish Tank) stand.

This is the color of my granite countertop for the custom grill

This is the fish tank stand (Not bad for a $10.00 stand)

So Grillfellas no other work done on the custom grill on Wednesday maybe after dinner tonight I can work on it ;D!
I should have the Granite by Tuesday per the company I ordered from

Man, I'm a fish guy. Not sure I'd trust a good sized tank on that stand.
