Brand New in Box 1996 One Touch Kettle
« on: June 26, 2015, 01:46:09 PM »
Hey there, I scored a kettle today from Kijij up here in Nova Scotia. Ad said it was new in box, went to pick it up and it was new in box but the box looked older than my other webers (2 WSMs and a Performer). Checked the date code and it's a 1996, had planned on taking it to the cottage but now I think I'll just buy a new one. Any idea on what this might be worth? Have a tasty weekend!

What colour is it?
I'm only 2 or 3 kettles away from being that creepy guy down the street with all the Webers

C'mon, @RobbieMacNS , we need some pics of a red NIB from down east, eh?  Not many of those show up in Canada …

Here is a thread to explain uploading pics.

Sorry it took a while to get these uploaded, I was going to take it to my girlfriend's cottage but I'm torn...:-) WSM, Performer, Kettle and Jack Daniels Napoleon propane grill makes for a busy deck at my place but this is pretty sweet.

That is sweet!!  Great score, indeed.  Watch for the colour-change when you cook on it … Very cool.  8)

I recommend finishing those handles so they will last a lifetime.  Maybe a coating of tung oil, then a couple three coats of spar varnish.

Oh, and welcome to the WKC!
