I always like Webers, even as a small child. Basically, they were the well-built grill to have that lasted for a long time.
In any event, I've gotten some really decent information on here. Saw some interesting mods that I want to try myself and have had people kindly answer various questions I've had when reading through other's threads. Also have had some really nice PMs that were informative, had a couple nice phone conversations with another Weber aficionado about a possible trade and other things, commiserated with another when we had both (unknowingly) been after the same Seville that someone else snaked (hopefully a non-member), and whatnot. In other words, I'd have to carefully scroll through threads, re-read pms, & do a LOT of work in order to thank ALL those that I owe some thanks to.
However, I wanted to say that a short time ago,
@Jules V. very kindly shipped me a couple of SSP tool hooks, the smaller wheel set, & some black endcaps after I mentioned in a thread that the red SSP I bought was in great condition, but had some tiny issues with these items.
I also wanted to say that
@Travis & I had agreed to a trade right before the holiday, but he wanted to deal with it afterwards. When I contacted him afterwards, he decided that he probably wouldn't really wind up using the item that I was trading so I should just keep it, but also he really doesn't use his corn n' tater ring anyway (which was what I was seeking), so he was just going to ship it to me anyway. I just received it a couple days ago.
So, I wanted to say thank you to everyone here.
I also wanted to let everyone know that I'd really like one of them cool looking black kettles with the little flecks of other colors on it, or a meat cut one, a Seville, or something else super cool. It's not even for me, it's really more for my little baby girl who is only 17 months old & enjoys seeing her 50 yo daddy doing Elmo's happy dance. My address is:.......well...one can always dream.
Thanks again.
