That SJ cart is AMAZING!!

Last weekend i swapped my Red SS bowl and lid with my Green Platinum bowl and lid, i wanted to have two Green SS Performers and i could have a Red Platinum.

It was real easy to swap the kettles, 4 bolts on each and done! I had to replace the bolts with new ones on the SS as they were rusty!
Red SS before:

Sorry no before picture for the Green Platinum
Transformation complete!


Two Green SS

Nice work! This is why I want a non gas assist SS performer someday in either red or blue.

Marty G that is a cool mod i like it!

Marty, that is an over the top build. It looks outstanding. It is evident, some major thought was involved.

2013 Jumbo Joe with the following upgrades:

- all stainless steel hardware
- bolt/nut "lever" added to intake vent (pictured here sporting Genuine Food Drippings)
- hinged cooking grate (not shown)
- TruTemp thermometer in Weber bezel
- lid damper "handle" (That's what Weber calls the little black insulator, and actually it was cheaper just to buy a new, year-correct "AH" lid damper with the insulator already on it so that's what I did.)
- zavod handle






With Weber's camp table, I've used this grill more than any other this year, but now that I've got my dad's old 18.5" ready that may change ...

Time to get this thread back to the first page, and finish strong. Everyone has some amazing mods with outstanding craftsmanship. True inspiration. Now lets see what my peers think of this:

What have I created !?!

This is Bettie P and she has a lot going on. I will put a list together later but you know what a picture is worth.



And to finish, Bettie in action : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3ED5M5d6T0&feature=youtu.be

Less than a week to go, and things are heating up. I know there are more mod masters out there, and I predict a few last minute entries. I'll compile a list of all entries and post it early on the 1st for your votes. All votes must be sent to me via PM - no public voting please. Remember, we'll have a "Member's Choice" and a "Statesman Choice" category, and everyone who enters a mod will have their creation featured in the Mod gallery. (Just not all at once...)

I'm traveling to Abu Dhabi on the 1st of Nov for a week, (and I'll be looking for unusual Weber items there) so please be patient until I get a reliable connection set up to announce the outcome of the voting.

Keep the Mods coming!

i'm probably the only guy on the site that prefers a regular kettle to a performer.  i've had a few and they're nice.  but they're big and i don't need the table, i need table space for another kettle on my patio more than a table attached to a kettle. 

wanted an avocado and a lime, and still do, but the above sage green would do in the meantime.

after freeing it from the evil clutches of too low a table and trading the cart to zapp for a street value of $10 i was left with a couple issues.

two ugly mounts welded to the bowl and no front handle.   







not very becoming of a poor man's MT. 




enter shower curtain rod, chopped and capped and four stainless steel bolts with locking nuts.

sorta looks like a terminator kettle but the handles are ridiculously effective. 

robo-kettle?  the termi-kettle? 







is there a category for most ridiculous looking kettle?  i think i have a chance at that one!

also - great mods guys.   

[1buckie]

that's Cool......what is it?

[weirleigh]

I like it GregS, not that I am going to dissemble my performer anytime soon but it is kind of a MT Ranger mod with the two handles 

[WilliamInColorado]

Very cool and useful @GregS ! I am not sure if your kettle wants me to give it a hug or my wallet, but I would happily do either. Well done!
