Fabricated a Handy Side-Table
« on: June 09, 2014, 09:57:18 AM »
I was inspired by a number of photos that I've seen on this forum of side-tables.
I was also inspired by the following thread.

http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-kettles-accessories/my-'interesting'-side-table/

This measures 20" X 30". Used it few times already, and love it.  :D
I like the fact that it has a bit of a "pit" look, and the aluminum legs help tie it in to the Weber kettle.  :) :)
The legs are easily removed from the sockets. Total weight is about 15 lbs.

I need to get it painted soon. Will probably go with a high-temperature flat black.














I liked it so much, I made two.

Thanks guys!  The plans had been running through my head all winter.
Couldn't wait for some nice weather to get it done.  They are not perfect, but will be highly functional.

I used an angle grinder for the cutting, and a flux-core wire welder. Nothing fancy.

I have a Weber condiment holder that gave me the idea for the "hooks" for the bowl.
I used some scrap sheet metal that I had laying around. The wingnuts allow for some adjustment from a 22" to an 18".
