was just reading bout people re-filling there green bottles , got me thinking , with nobody in my family into charcoal , what happens to my precious kettles when I die ?  don't really have anything super rare or anything but would be cool to somehow leave em to the club eh ? has anybody thought about it ? i.m having scary visions of a scrap dealer loading them up and crushing them ! ahhhhhh!

Why wait til you die...you can give them to me and watch someone enjoy them while your still alive.

You can't always get what you want....but if you try sometimes you get what you need

good one ! hellfire grill , made my day !

It's not stuff I think about. I have Weber's now because I'm alive and I enjoy them. When I'm dead, hopefully later rather than sooner, I probably won't care since I'll be dead. At that point, Webers will be the least of my worries. Hopefully my remaining family will not just toss them. But I won't care.

As of now mine all go to my son. In May we'll have two kids and they can fight over them after I'm gone. Hopefully it's a long time from now though. Until then, like @Darko said, enjoying them now.

I plan on lingering around a bit and haunting whoever gets my kettles by moving the vents around while it cooks.

Not when I die, but I did think about if I ever moved to condo or other smaller place with no charcoal grills allowed.  I will probably pass them to other grillfellas here.   Matter of fact, my yellow, Green MBH, and the Red 3 wheelers are spoken for by members here already.  I will make sure to follow thru. when time comes.

I don't care what happens to any of my stuff when I die but hopefully someone will enjoy them.

No, don't be sorry. Like any hobby or passion; We do hope that once we are gone, our descendants will at least get rid of our stuff for what it is worth rather than just tossing it. Alas, it is what it is.

I honestly don't think it's a dark subject at all.

This is a concern that's come up in a number of hobbies that I'm involved in or aware of.  Take people who are interested in trains or old electronics and for the most part, given the demographics of the people involved, those are groups of people that, aside from some young people like myself, are ageing rapidly.  The question of "What happens to all this because nobody in my family's interested?" has come up in several circles of friends.  I've had several friends in both of those hobbies that have passed away which always prompts that type of conversation among those that knew them.  Two of them didn't have much family and nobody that I know seems to know what happened to the stuff that they'd collected over the years, or what happened to their pets either for that matter.  I hope their houses weren't cleared out into a dumpster before being sold, but nobody I know knows; nobody we know ended up with anything and nothing got donated to any of the railway museums these two people were involved in.  It's a rational concern for anybody that has a collection of any kind to have.

This is a good point.  At least with a move or some other situation like that, you can plan and manage around it and take care of things yourself and that's what I plan to do as long as I'm around to do it.  The problem is what if the unexpected happens and that's what crosses my mind every so often.

I don't have any noteworthy barbecues so I imagine those would be sold and used by whoever buys them but I look around the house and wonder about the other things that I have that are unique and not directly useful to anybody like anything made by Weber and wonder what would happen.

@MrHoss has willed his Lime green that I sold to him a couple of years ago.
I am not a collector, but I do have a small collection.
