Awesome!!  Digging that side table.  Folder dow it looke likw the cover would still fit.  How much weight can the new table support? 
Lets just say I have acquired a few Kettles.  Big and small.   Vintage and New...  Some say I have a problem.  I find the Kettle, buy the Kettle, USE the Kettle...No problem...

Looks fantastic. What type of wood did you use?

Thanks for the kind words.

The wood is unknown, recycled from an old hottub/spa/jacuzzi. The pictures don't do it justice, really close to the Brazillian Rosewood handles from Zavod.

She's very sturdy. Easily hold a full packer brisket...

Wow! Incredible restore and mod!
I think I remember something about removing the badge, painting the whole thing, and then carefully sanding the paint off the letters and edges.
I think the trick was laying the sand paper down on some flat surface and rubbing the badge over the paper
Pretty sure it was one of Matt's trick, should be pretty easy to search

Dam Bear! That looks awesome, love the clean up and especially the table. Nice work on the gas bottle too, I could never find one that would sit plumb once installed.
Did you have to mod the gas bottle?
Zav's look great too, need to get me a timber vent tab
I'm only 2 or 3 kettles away from being that creepy guy down the street with all the Webers

Apart from painting and an elbow fitting, no.

However, it flakes paint everywhere already. I will be changing to a different bottle as part of mods stage 2.

That side table is just awesome.  I love EVERYTHING about it.  Trying to figure out how it's secured as it didn't look like it bolted all the way through.
