Mini MT -
« on: May 22, 2017, 06:49:57 AM »
Thanks to @dwnthehatch @captjoe06 and @zavod44 I had all the parts and pieces in all the right colors to build up this Mini Master Touch, just right for those grilling-for-two meals. Quick fun mod, and I grabbed a few shots on a rainy day in between showers. I'll get my entire family together sometime soon, just like everyone else around here.  ::)

Can you do a little tutorial about drilling the holes for the lid holder?

Pretty simple. (Thanks to a roached out bowl from an 18.5" OTP.) The first hole is in line with the center of the rear vent slot, 4 1/2" down from the end of the slot.

The bail holes are centered on that same line, and are 18 1/4" center to center.


The bail holes are 1" on center from the lip of the bowl.


Holes are 1/4", and I got to it in three steps, starting with a 1/8" bit. I used blue painters tape to mark the holes.

Looks beautiful! It is funny how I am just coming back from picking up a 18" kettle. And it is your favorite color.  You might be wondering what so special than.  Well! I will reveal it soon.

Now I know what to do with the lid bale I've got hanging around.

Very nice! I have a couple/few 22" lid bales. I wonder if those would work on an 18... kind of like the new-style bales on Performers.
