Wun Wheeld Wonder
« on: May 20, 2017, 04:06:12 PM »
I found another FREE weathered warrior today and when I went to pick it up one leg fell off. When I put the leg back it weebled & wobbled but it didn't fall down.

It needs to be cleaned before I can fix it but Im planning to screw through the leg socket tabs and into a 2" square plate that'll be inside the kettle, sandwiching the kettle. Theres some rim rash and one leg that needs fixed otherwise its in perfect condition.

This one is a pre date, post patent, small tab vents with 2 piece plastic wheels.

It'll be cooking by tomorrow.

Nice! The lid looks almost a true grey in color. Looking forward to seeing your fix for the leg socket.

Cool! Guess that key is so you can get your grill unlocked easy and you don't lose it. I wish Weber would get off their hinds and punch out some replacement twist on ash pans. They say they really care about grilling but sometimes I wonder.
