This is crazy good.

I love that burner. 

Very cool that it has a Summit look to it.

Another member modded a Performer frame to fit the 26" kettle too,  Looked really stock.

When will you begin taking orders??!!!

Well.... the Performer XL is pretty much finished (almost)

Yeah, right   :)

One of the coolest group of mods I have ever seen on a performer!  So much functionality in this project - I especially appreciate your hinge locks for the swinging table.  That looks very sturdy.

Post some pics of that side burner in action when you get a chance!

That is one cool kettle....

Thank you.

I do stuff like this for fun.
& every time I tried to make projects like this into a business venture, it wasn't fun anymore.
So, I don't do that.

Whoa!
I wish Weber would see this and make one for those of us that can't craft something like this.

operating instructions for side burner : place chimney on burner .open lid and remove grill . place now white hot coals on grate  caution keep young chldren and  small pets at least 1 metre from burner intake . lol all kidding  aside spectacular engineering looks like something you'd see in a weber restaurant .
