Blue S/S Resto
« on: June 26, 2017, 09:32:47 AM »
Finally finished. Well almost. Ordered some cedar handles from Brian, then will be complete. Gave this to a friend of mine Saturday. He was floored!

His small family is growing. I just picked up a 26er for him for 150.00 this morning as well.but now he needs to sell his Master Touch to counter the cost of it.

@Ken Mc -   Great job!  I polished my SS top, lid vent, and thermo bezel this weekend.  I was debating polishing my ash catcher, but after seeing yours it's definitely happening next week.  Do you have any close ups of the weber plaque on the front.  I was thinking about doing something with mine to make it pop.

Its the original badge, I just used some paint on it. when I painted the frame, I included the badge, then I got some model paint and painted it. I was debating about th perimeter white as well, but the B did not connect like the covers for the grill does, so I just left it black outlined.

I also chrome plated the axle as well. I hate when those things rust. I did notice something different on this one as far as the rollers. They are the same size at both ends. Just never seen that before.

@Ken Mc
Too funny, the badge looks oem with that paint scheme.

And for as many years has been making those rollers, they have changed them.

Nice looking grill all around!
