Move over Grandpa, now there is Great Grandpa...

Trade sounds like a win for both of you
It's great to see the WK Clubbers networking

I think I have a reason to hate you! Just call me Lampe!
If anyone is gonna bring another 50 years to this grill, its gonna be you.
Nice grill Brian.. When do we eat? 

Anytime, come on by and we can cook!

I had a chance to get a hold of that avocado for G because I knew he would want it, just like those gasser parts for you.  I knew you could use them and I had a chance to get my hands on them.....to me that's what this whole site is about...

OMG! It's Will Robinson's Rat-Rod! Just curious, what's it like to lift off that lid? Do you need a partner? Does it hit you in the gut? (Envisioning try to explain that crescent-shaped burn mark to the Doctor...) And what is the weight of the lid?

Believe it or not, it's not too heavy, it's just right.  You need to use both handles for sure.  I am cooking some chicken legs right now for the game and the handles are not too hot and it really isn't too bad to deal with.  I'll post pics later...

I almost say leave Great Grandpa as is, like his son Grandpa. Two ol' guys that have earned their battle scars and could tell some serious 'war' stories. A really cool picture would be of the two Grandpas in the middle with a bunch of newer wood handle and plastic handle kettles through the years surrounding them as if they were being told a story.

I really like the way it looks now. It screams 'old and used' like a Weber should. I'm envious of both of your collections.

I could have told you Stu wasn't a murderer. I met him at his place and drove home with a car load of Webers that he was liquidating. Great guy. Wish he lived closer.

The WSM I got from him was cleaned up, repaired, and has been on permanent loan to a buddy who was in desperate need of a pit and didn't have the coin to buy one.

My wife thought he was a murderer not me, I knew he was okay...

Re-reading the thread I see that now.
And since he has posted, post-meet-up, it's obvious you're not a murderer either.
Which is good to know.

Brian.

That grill is so impressive that your fire hydrant fell over in shock.

[zavod44]

I have that old fire hydrant, I haven't figured out what to do with it yet.....

That's easy, paint it Green and Yellow, call your dog over, snap a pic and send to your good buddy over on the other forum

Put it in the kitchen, that's where I keep my stoplight......

Uh.. I have no response for that...

[zavod44]

If anyone needs a fire hydrant and is in the area I'm willing to talk.  Oh and it's heavier than hell...
