At the beginning of the year I had a modest goal to snag a blue and a copper this year. Ideally I would get a target copper with the end result to convert it to a MT.
Scored the blue last friday
Scored the copper yesterday
Nicely done, it's good to have goals
Love those Target coppers. Congrats!

Congrats! What makes it a "target" copper?

For 1 year (this is an AA 2011 code) Target sold a copper OTS, came with cool black handles. No back handle so they are ideal for converting to a MT.
Never come across one, but I like the Target Coppers because they are one of the last (if not the last?) without taco lid, and without a thermometer opposite the lid vent ... two demerits my newer copper has. :)
Digging those blaik triangles, too!
Congrats Jeff. Nice scores right there. Enjoy them.
That can't be all you wanted. LOL

I set some low goals so I can feel accomplished

Congrats Boltz on the goals completed. BTW, Weber did offer a Copper OTG/Premium in 2014 "AH" before switching to taco handle in 2015. I have both the Target and the 2014 versions. Here's a couple shots of the "AH".

Awesome Jeff! I set some pretty high goals myself, but think that they all are attainable (except Glen Blue, ha!). Hoping to get the blue lantern soon so I can stop checking eBay twice an hour! Can't wait to see the copper when you are finished with the conversion!

Congrats on the acquisitions after you register the target copper see if they still have the black handles. When my order was placed they were low on the black handles.
If you don't have one go to a hobby shop or something similar and get a cloth measuring tape.

What is a MT conversion?
I'm happy for you, LB. They are both awesome grills.

Welcome to WKC.
M/T is Master-Touch
The MTs have a lid bale, lid thermometer, wood handles, ash catcher bucket. Some models have some of that, but the MT has all of them in a standard standalone kettle.

I didn't realize true MT's only had wooden handles. Looks like I've mismarked a few of my CL adds that sold to civilians. ;) I'll have to be more accurate from now on.

Late model MT has plastic handles.
Here is mine from my 2015 Euro Smoke Grey.

Yeah when they brought that model back in 2015 all Webers had long since transitioned to plastic handles by then. Swapping in custom wood handles isn't automatic, but often assumed. :)
I like the look of the wooden handles and one day I hope to get a set.
I would have already bought a full set of @zavod44 handles but I have 1 big problem that prevents me from pulling the trigger.
His handles are SO NICE that I can't pick just 1 set... I like them ALL !
