So a few more details to show before I get started.
As you can see, the lid has a pretty good sized chip in the lid.
Next, all the bottom vent dampers are gone, so what the former owners did was drill a hole in the bottom of the bowl, install the hardware for a One Touch sweeper system (without the sweeps), place the original ash pan inside the base of the bowl, drill a hole in the center to pass the One Touch hardware through to secure the pan, and lastly...drill holes through the pan - through the original vent holes to allow it to breath. Genius! Now there is a hole in the base of the bowl, and holes in the original ash pan.
I've also notice some chipping and crazing in areas of the bowl. Lastly, the former owner sprayed the legs black to match the kettle...naturally!!
Half of the top handle remains...but that's not a big deal of course.
My goal is to get this kettle to a grill fella, and back into the cooking fleet.
