Free Weber performer .
« on: September 27, 2017, 02:38:30 PM »
I seen this weber performer along the side of our town mayor shop just sitting there I contacted him and asked if he want to sell it. He said I'll help you load it up if u just take it ! So I did. It's been sitting for years . It's filthy and the table top is broken. I'll try and see if the wife will let me use some of the barn wood she has been saving for some DIY projects around the house . I have no idea if the propane works . I just pulled it out the the truck. I washed the layer of crap off it and gonna take it apart for a
Good cleaning . Iv wanted one for along time
But didn't wanna pay the price . Today is a good day!!!!!!!

Good steal! Re: gas, cleaning the tube at the fire end AND the pin hole at the hose end sometimes is all it needs.

I'm curious what you do with the table. I scored a free OTP I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with.. but has a cracked table top. OTP's aren't really my thing (and I don't have a place for it) but the side table could come in handy.

Well I stopped at Lowe’s and picked up a piece of wood for a new table. Been working on it the last few nights . Stained it with gun stock . Which I like a lot . On the second coat of polyurethane. Not quite done but close !!!!

Well here it is . I may lightly sand it I have a couple ruff spots but other  than that I think it turned out nice .  Much better than when I picked it up! Ready for action tomorrow !
