Last Sunday, fellow member and Wisconsinite
@stubblebum pm'd me regarding some goodies he had found in an on-line auction that was near me. Stubblebum was interested in what was there, but not in the 5 hour round trip to get it if he won. He checked the member map and saw I was closest.
Once I saw the pic, I knew the WKC had to win the auction. Up for sale was this little baby (my pic, not the auction pic):
A brown offset handle peg-leg SJ. I couldn't tell it was brown in the pic for sure but still... one of us had to get it.
It was in a lot with a couple of planters (which I'll use), a small pet kennel (which I won't) and a couple of kitchy things. Chad and I were both afraid someone would win the lot for the kennel and throw the Weber in the garbage.
It's not perfect. There's chips in the lid and rust around the leg holes. Worst, all 3 legs are toast. Actually, they're charcoal. One was so bad the previous owner drilled out the leg bolt hole and used a big ass lag bolt to hold the leg on. Really?
So I'll take some measurements and buy the pieces parts to make new legs.
Vents are all operable and intact. I cleaned out the insides and gave the outside a wash. Sorry, no "before" pics.
Some more pics:
Not sure what I'm going to do with it, but it won't clutter a landfill.
