Gifted kettle with custom Zav
« on: June 29, 2016, 06:15:14 PM »
My nephew is getting married in a few week, so I decided for a wedding gift, I'd restore him a grill. His fiancé's favorite color is green so I kept an eye out for a green to restore. I found this a few months back

I called upon Brian for a custom lid handle, and he didn't disappoint. Plus a couple on the side with a Weber logo.  Thanks Brian, great work!  Everyone that sees the handles loves them.

I dropped the grill off last week, he was grilling on the lower part of a Coleman smoker!  I felt sorry for him 

Here's some pics.

That's a kick ass wedding gift. Something practical, it'll get a lot of use and they can make some family memories around the kettle. Awesome!
Looking for: Red MBH 26"(The Aristocrat), Chestnut-coppertone (The Estate), Glen-blue (The Imperial), and The Plainsman.

Congrats to your nephew and his new bride. Great job on that clean up and what a cool touch with the personalized handle. A thing of beauty! Now tell him to throw away that Coleman!

What a special wedding gift @bladz.  The planning, color selection, restoration and addition of personalized handles speak to the affection and regard you hold for this couple. I'm sure your nephew and his new bride love their "Wedding Weber" and it will be their most treasured wedding gift.  Bravo!

Thanks for the kind words folks. They are a great couple, and they were totally appreciative towards the grill. In fact, he sent a message the next day. He couldn't wait until after the wedding.
