My brother re-made this HF cart for his son n laws 14. I like the wood top for the finishing touch & covering the rough metal edge.

I love my wood top-- plenty of room to work and easy clean-up. Lots of cooks and the wood looks the same (not burnt) as the day I finished it. Last year at a garage sale I bought a beach umbrella and mounted it to the back side of the cart. Works great smoking in the rain.

It's pretty easy to lift the mid section off/up. I did have to lift it once during a cook it but it was not a problem for me. I have since added simple u shaped handles to the mid section and I used silicone tubing over the handles so they don't get hot.

I Love the WSM but hated how you could not move it (very easily anyway). Here's what I did (posted it on the Weber Kettle Club Site): http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/wsm-weber-smokey-mountain/my-diy-wsm-cart/

Here in Michigan anyway...

Our Wally World has RO 7lb bags, 2 for 8 bucks. Not a good deal when I can find two 16lb bags of blue for 12.99 or less.
