Title: What to do next?
Post by: Italian Stallion on February 03, 2018, 05:00:54 PM

So I picked up this 18 inch kettle today off Craig's list.  Just needs work on the ash sweeper that is locked up.  I will also need to upgrade the dinner plate ash catcher.  (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180204/6dc08d091f6698d733ab6e05a3cbd7d4.jpg)

The guy also sold me this for $15.  The bowl is in bad shape and has a few rust holes.  Any advice on options to repair bowl or is it shot?  I have an extra 22 black bowl from a regular kettle.  Maybe mod somehow to the cart? Not sure what I just got into but I'd like to use the table and I dig the plum kettle. The lid is in good shape.  Worst case scenario is that I scored some parts.  Many thanks in advance!

Hi, Nice find. My first Weber was a 22" grey one I picked up at a yard sale ON THE WAY to buy a gass BBQ! Fate.. I unlocked my ash catcher by soaking it in salad oil

Thanks for the tip!  I'll give it a shot.
