@Davescprktl -  Great restoration.  The reflection of you and your house in the 5th picture is really interesting.  It almost looks like a portal into another dimension.

Before.





After.



Although, not as pristine as my Red Mastertouch I got earlier, inside and outside was clean enough that all I did was burn-in and started using right away.  Same as before.  No cleaning required.

When I first got it... August, 2015





After initial cleanup in October of '15 (Why, Yes! Yes I have kettles on my home screen. Don't you!?)





What turned out to be its farewell cook in Omaha. July, 2016



In its new home in Elgin, IL. , August 6th, 2016. Posing with it's newest friend and twin




It's got friends!!!






It was HARD to say goodbye but I'm sure another will turn up. Plus I know this one is in good hands.

Driving to my sister's house I spotted this on the side of the road.  The guy was moving and was setting a lot of stuff to the curb.  He even helped me load it up.  A little while later my father seen it in the garage and started asking about it.  I decided to surprise him for Father's Day.  Cleaned it up and put some new grates on it.  Needless to say, he was pretty happy with it.
