Title: Red Kettle Score
Post by: FuzzyMan88 on June 16, 2018, 01:51:25 PM
Hello All,

I just picked this Red Kettle for free from someone I pass overtime I go to my parents house.  The kettle is rough as can be and needs some major love and care, but I will be able to get her cooking again.

That kettle looks great! It'll look better when the leg sockets are attached to the kettle.

Yes it will. It also looks like I will be looking for the older style ash catcher and sweeps.

Here are a few more pictures of the kettle, before I start to clear it and start one getting it back to cooking.

The first picture is after I wiped of the lid with a wet rag.

Beautiful! You bolt them back on or more exotic fix?

I bolted them back on, now I need to find the old OTS cleaning system and ash catcher.  the sweeps were beyond saving and the ash catcher was no where to be found.
