MacEggs and I met up yesterday to exchange. Real pleasure meeting him in person finally.  He even brought me some Cherry and Apple wood chunks. Thanks!

Here they are between my Greens chilling for now.



Closer shot.

Very nice 18’s, @greenweb.  Love the fade of the WW.

some of these 18" shots have started me thinking to switch my 22's with 18s. Nice shots @greenweb

Very nice trade fellas. @chiku18 I too consider more 18s as they store easier and are nice little cookers.
Looking for: Red MBH 26"(The Aristocrat), Chestnut-coppertone (The Estate), Glen-blue (The Imperial), and The Plainsman.

Agreed @kettlebb and with your recent yachtsman grab - it will more compelling for you to find additional siblings :).

Indeed, it was a pleasure meeting and talking with greenweb!
So glad that we could make this happen.  Hopefully more meet-ups will take place.
Perhaps also with that curmudgeon, @MrHoss ??   ;D ;)

The trade was great.  I received a beauty red economy kettle 3-wheeler.  EI vent code (1997).  Thanks, dude!
I didn't waste any time when I got her home.  I dug out the lid bale assembly from the boneyard and installed it.  Then cooked on it.

Drilling the holes was not a problem.  Used 4 different sized bits.  Started small, then finished with a 9/32" bit.
But then I must have over-tightened one of the nuts, and there was a small piece of porcelain loss …. Damn.  :( >:( :-\  I felt bad.  :-[

Neat trade. I also have a similar-looking 18.5 "Weathered Warrior" I got from my dad. Can't believe I tried to sell it; glad no one here took me up on it!
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

I thought it was kinda crazy at the time too ATS.

That faded Black 18 MBH @greenweb ................. that there is a damn classic warrior. Better looking than any new taco could ever hope to be. I was the first here to lay eyes on her too....had her parked behind my kitchen table for a week or so.....and I'd have her back in a second....somebody must have really wanted a Red Economy. Do enjoy Dan.
