WKC 3rd Annual Show & Shine 2014
« on: March 25, 2014, 07:39:42 PM »
Welcome! I can't believe it's already S&S year 3 already! It's close enough to spring that it's time to kick it in gear and get some projects going and do some shining and showing. Whatever you have in the land of kettles and accessories, show them off. Loud and proud! Originals and customs alike!

I will start it off with a custom pair o' fitties.

Just got them finished today..







Had to fire up the 22 and rededicate it for pizza night. "cooked on her that night!"






I want to say thank you to all the great members of the WKC for a great 2013 and an even greater 2014! With a little networking and a shared passion and knowledge of my fellow Grillfellas it has made projects like these not only possible, but fun to collaborate and work on. :)

Very nice Craig.  I bet that was a lot of fun fabricating those parts.  More details on the triangles please.  I may have a need for one.... ;)

Great work on those fitties Craig! I think they should be inducted into the Customs gallery.

Thanks for the compliments guys!! It means a lot. I should point out that the 18.5 was started by Shaun Duke and he sent it to me to complete. He and I are the resident 50s kettle nuts it seems.  ;D  After collaborating with him on that one, I really wanted to add a 22 to the mix to compliment it (ok, feed the addiction!  ::)  ) . Here's a few historical photos that I used as inspiration for this project.







This last one was more inspiration for the 18.
