Title: My first kettle restore.
Post by: Krawtschenko on August 17, 2020, 08:11:10 AM
I have been wanting a Weber kettle to transition from just having my Genesis silver. I found this great 22.5 with wood handles on Craigslist for $7, so I couldn't pass it up. When the seller actually responded that I could come pick it up I was thrilled. Just a lady clearing out stuff she didn't use was my gain.
Not much wrong, just missing a wood handle, and one wheel won't stay on, and needing some cleaning up.
Here are the before picks.

Already cleaning up well. Not done yet, then on to the legs and ash pan.

All it needs now is a grate, and off we go.

Nice job!  That's got many years left of grilling and smoking.  Well done!
