Performer ID Help
« on: April 26, 2016, 07:41:11 AM »


Can any of the veteran members ID the year and color of this from the picture?  I can't tell if it's crimson or copper.  I'm leaning toward crimson.

It looks great when you add a metal table.

Issues:
Partially melted bale rollers


I'm guessing  this is the beginning stages of rust.  Do you guys think steel wool will do the trick here?



And then the table which I plan to replace with the metal one-

I suggest a new lid bale, large size.  The new one will come with new rollers.
Looking for a RED 26" Kettle & a tabbed no leg RED 22" Kettle near STL. Copper Sam Adams SJ anywhere 8)

I've entered the part number and can't find them online.  I like the black color as well on the 2015 lid bale.
Thanks @zavod44

how would you guys tackle the light rust forming in the bottom gray wire shelf?  Is there a certain product/technique  you'd use?
