Just found this on another forum, the Handy Pan Ash Catcher. Looks good. Has anyone here ever heard of this?

I might order one for my 1979 Kenmore-Weber.

Ther's an answer to the Happy Cooker internal ash pan.
Not bad at $30 but I wonder about the durability.

Yes! Suddenly, 3-wheelers become more popular, igniting an incredible increase in their value! Soon, grillfellas will be scouring the countryside for the previously scorned 18.5" black daisys.

JULY 2008.  Fat chance on that coming to market.

According to my calculations, the patent is likely expired.  If someone actually wanted to manufacture these, I would suggest they ask me to double-check & I can make certain by checking a few things.

No need. Found a 17 inch deep dish pizza pan that will work perfectly. And it won't rust out!
