Got my twin coppers in and just about done with my table. I got L brakets for the kettle but wanted to see what others have done.
Heres my build so far.
I got extra wood so i was thinking.
Place the L brackets under the top and wood under it and secure it with scres from top? Kinda like a sandwhich?(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180525/7df1227c108ac900cc0935f27f440c2b.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180525/d969847e313b558e249875b1d6e42946.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180525/4dc3edfd96bef5344cf7db64db2f8d3a.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180525/2194549ffe33a59da300ef0e85236517.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180525/e67ef10818fb63fa18c3ca9d54b9181e.jpg)

Can't wait to see it finished.

Looks good! What's the diameter on your holes? I'm working on plans for a table myself

qwesthunter has made Performer-style brackets in SS.

I routered out a slot for the handles to sit in on the table I built so the grill just hangs in there. I like the flush mount look.

Conduit hooks, hooked under the lip of the grill, then screwed to the table. A little piece of wood under the handles for extra support.

Ended up keeping the look of the black pipes so painted my L brackets(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180601/ad4a34a528051bf7234543e63be404ff.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180601/a830e5abc15781d53fff8f5d05ac0a32.jpg)

Looks like a blowtorch and then poly.
Lovin' it.
Really like the contrast of the copper and the black hardware.
-

Beautiful work. I love how the torched wood compliments the copper kettles.

Love the look of the torched wood, black hardware and copper. I used spar 30% with teak oil 70% on a wood storage box for the deck this year. Not sure how it will hold up but i've heard it helps avoid the flaking that spar can do. might not be too fireproof though...

We make no painting of the wood, just fire . There is new Genesis II inside

Looks sharp.
Had you considered mounting the L brackets from underneath to give the table an unobstructed view? I'm sure mounting them on top is probably stronger, but maybe a round head bolt through the top, held on by a nut underneath would be strong, and clean looking too? Either way, nice looking project!
-
I might just do that

I did it in a bit different way (however the top of my table where the kettle is placed is SS, not wood). I took a kind of round SS collar which is exactly fitting the bowl lip

If you do the kettle table again, you might want to look at buy the bottom part of the kettle for the performer series from weber. Where the handles are on the model you used, they have brackets in place to screw it the the performer frame. The part number for the copper one is 65164. Of course that may cost more in parts, but might be a cleaner install of you are selling these tables.

Reviving an older thread, my wife really likes this style table, may even use copper kettles as well, but have my mind on the crimson premiums now... Is there any reason just hanging from the handles is a bad idea? Aslo, have any of yall used the rings that you can buy that are specific to mounting a kettle in the wooden tops? I personally like the way the grill sits up some from the top of table with the handles. Also, can you take a pic from underneath looking at the grills if you have time? I'd really appreciate it, just gives me another vantage point to look at for building my setup... otherwise this looks great, awsome job.

@Martin75 are you in Czech Republic? I recognized that pic before I saw that it was from grilkrby....
@dirtfishingman beautiful job. Is that Southern Yellow Pine?

Do the Lbrackets not scratch the kettle?

I really like how you raised the bowl above the table and you made the table out stainless that is very clean and you added a real nice big side burner that you really cook on. Sweet.
