Indeed, it was a pleasure meeting and talking with greenweb!
So glad that we could make this happen. Hopefully more meet-ups will take place.
Perhaps also with that curmudgeon,
@MrHoss ??
The trade was great. I received a beauty red economy kettle 3-wheeler. EI vent code (1997). Thanks, dude!
I didn't waste any time when I got her home. I dug out the lid bale assembly from the boneyard and installed it. Then cooked on it.
Drilling the holes was not a problem. Used 4 different sized bits. Started small, then finished with a 9/32" bit.
But then I must have over-tightened one of the nuts, and there was a small piece of porcelain loss …. Damn.
I felt bad.
