Hopefully the wife see's it that way too.
She said my red performer SS was the only red head I was allowed to bring home.
I wanted this kettle for the new sweeps and grate to put in another kettle.
It looked much better in person than on craigslist.
Now I have a red head to restore and still need sweeps for my original Black OTG that I just repaired the leg sockets on.
I may just need to buy a set @ Ace hardware.
Hopefully I make it there without finding another kettle.

aaahhhhh..... Weberitis ;D

Finished pics.




This is the first triangle ever tried to paint. I primed it, shot it silver followed by a thin coat of bright red and then misted it with some black hammered paint to match the speckles in the red on the bowl. Then added the red hubcaps to follow the theme.
