Title: Making of my Euro Spring Green Gen1 MT
Post by: greenweb on August 06, 2017, 03:51:30 AM

@ Scott Zee - do you mind posting your Euro Spring Green MT here for a comparison. All your previous pics are gone.  Also, I would like to know other members with this MT. Post up your pics too.

My Euro Spring Green Gen1 MT project has started, and I should have it all done by today.





Finished pic edited into this first post.

@ Scott Zee - thanks so much for those beautiful pics. Now I got the original that I could compare mine too.

This project has been long overdue, but finally here is the work in progress. I should be done sometime today and start on my another Spring Green Retro kettle soon.

The handle first.

@greenweb   It originally had a regular ashcan. I changed to the black to match the triangle.

Did it originally come with the black triangle. I thought it was non black ash can and the triangle? 

Mine is all done with the newer style black ash pan and the ash ring with a reg. triangle. I am not sure if I should retro fit older style ash ring and the pan to make it more authentic looking or keep it as is with more rounder bot. shape pan. I am working on this now.  As for the handles... Zav Zebra handles and a Koa rollers on.

Very nice guys! Curious, is yours a "DZ" code Scott?

Here's some older shots of mine. It's rocking a black ashpan as well now - suits it so much better!

@ SixZeroFour - beautiful! Is your triangle black? It looks silver to me.

I am also changing the pan to black.

Here is the final version. Except for the obvious lid vent location difference, I am happy with how it turned out. I may change out the triangle to black but, I kind of like silver more as the black ash pan stands out more I think.
