Very kind of you to offer your time and expertise, Bman.  Glad to know you!

I never get sick of seeing an old gasser come back to life. Now with these from Bman, many more can be rescued. Nice work my man!

Steve Counts at the bullet posted up his redhead restore with this photo



Clearly, he was missing the final piece of the puzzle.  After a few messages back-n-forth, a new handle was on it's way.
He stained/finished the redwood handle to match and posted up the final version.
Looks pretty daymn good if I do say so myself.   8)

I've always had gas...  And now a bunch of kettles because of this place.  Thanks!

So far, things have been by a case-by-case basis via PM. 

As for price... Well, this is still pretty new to me so I don't have a set price list.
My local lumberyard sells knot-free redwood in 1X4 & 1x6, which makes for a nice product - but it's kind of pricey.
A 1X6X8' cost 22 bucks and I yield 16 slats & 1 handle A 1X4X8' cost 13 bucks and yields 10 slats & 1 handle
Those prices I have zero control over. Cheapest shipping charges I have zero control over.
Labor rates I have control over, but here's what I've done with other guys.
As long as you cover the material & shipping costs, that's all I'll require. Donations for labor are accepted though.  8)
A cardboard shipping tube was 4 bucks and shipping USPS for the above handle was 6 bucks. 

If you need something, shoot me a PM

Cool, we shall talk very soon..  And I don't think that with a fair labor rate the price would be unrealistic..  8)

Good morning everyone. I know this thread is old and a long shot, but does anyone know if Bman is still making/selling the slats and handle? I have sent him an email I found in another thread.

Thanks!!
