This is the first weber I've ever owned and I've absolutely fallen in love with it. Believe it not, my boss at work actually gave me his 2013 Weber Performer today!
The mods I'm doing on the 22.5" standard kettle aren't crazy but is gonna personalize it for me. Originally bought for $40 off Craiglist with the weber chimney.
-Added extra charcoal grate and bolted the two together so that charcoal doesn't fall through so soon
-Upgraded to hinged grate (Also got a cast iron one)
-Just finished painting the legs and triangle tonight (Flat black to contrast the shiney black kettle)
-Ordered the wooden vintage handles
-And put a rubber stopper on the third leg to keep it from slipping
-Added the weber utensil holder/rack to the side of the kettle, but still not sold on it
Will post some pics either tomorrow or Tuesday once it's all finished up!
