Working on a copper SS performer that was used to hold up a tree.

This is going suprising well but that lid took a beating. No holes but I am still getting another. Frame is in great shape once I run some thread through the shelf supports.

Who knows when I will come across a charcoal bin and control panel though. 🤷‍♂️

Talk about the ultimate restore!

Congrats brother. That's a GRAIL for me. Anything you might need, hit me up.

@Red_5_Wrangler , post lots of pics and a list of parts you need, some of us can probably help out....  Best of luck on your undertaking, and welcome to the club!

Good luck with your project. I have done one red ssp restore that required many hrs of work but not like this. When I saw this pic on the other thread, I said to myself.... RIP.   If you can restore this back.... this could be gold. Many ssp restore threads on here including mine for inspiration and ideas.


I am assuming this is a brownie or copper mist. I do have PP brownie performer project in mind for next year project.

Couldn't find suitable lock nuts at the local stores so I am going with all thread through the lower supports. Grand total of 8 dollars so far. Although the wife did order the lid off ebay for me... but hey that's a gift!

@Red_5_Wrangler Ordered a lid off of eBay?

Yea someone was selling just the lid to a copper mist kettle. Looked good but we will see when/if it arrives. Eitherway the original one doesnt have any holes and is pretty good one one side.

Here is the bowl unmounted.

And the lid purchase

That will turn out nicely!

The all-thread technique looks familiar...

Can't wait to see the finished product, bet it's gonna be killer!
