Nice find! That’s just like one that I restored. I have the same side burner. I never used it, but it was a nice place to put dirty tongs and spatulas while cooking. It helped keep the wood shelves cleaner. I’m lookin forward to the restoration thread! Gerry

“You’re gonna need a bigger sink!”

John, I restored a couple of those myself. Check out my thread: https://tvwbb.com/threads/restoration-projects-1992-genesis-1-and-late-80s-genesis-2.76238/ I have a lot of pictures showing the older parts. You can also see a copy of the owners manual for them at...

Why not use an inverter flavorizer bar or two as a form to hold its shape. And then simply use the grill on a low setting to provide the heat. You can then let it “rest” in the grill. Edit: I would do this on the grates, not down low where the flavorizer bars normally sit. Gerry

Well, if you are backing up to one drive, and that drive fails, your backup is gone. A network drive with two drives is better. If one drive fails, you replace the drive and the NAS copies the good drive to it. If the NAS itself fails, you can buy a new one and migrate your drives to it. (You...

I started with a 2 bay unit in 2012 and use it as a backup to another two bay unit I bought in 2016. Both are in the safe in the basement wIth ups backup power. I know I should have one of them off site. As my files grow, I’ve been replacing the drives with larger capacity drives so I now...

Instead of cloud storage, I went with a two disk Synology NAS (Network Attached Storage) unit. The two disks mirror each other, so if one fails, your data isn’t lost. You just replace the bad drive. You can use them for for more than just storage. I host my own password manager on it, as well...

What about using the wrinkle black paint that Harley Davidson uses on their engines? There is also VHT wrinkle black paint available. Gerry

I am not that computer literate. I gave pretty accurate measurements. If someone else prints it out and measures it, and it matches what I’ve shown it should be close enough. I’ll help with pics and measurements of my drip trays as needed Gerry

Crap. I don’t know if I can. I can only print letter size paper …

It’ll have to wait till tomorrow

Darn near when looking at it in a flat plane. That square part is 45 degrees as I’m sure you know.

I see what you are looking at now. I wouldn’t worry about the angle. Draw out what I showed and the angle is whatever it is. By my measurements, that diagonal line measures 7” Gerry

28.4-29.5. Don’t know how accurate the level is. I’d call it 29 Gerry

I showed the angles of the front/rear and sides. The corner angles will be less, but I didn’t measure it. (Think hip roof) I never showed it on a template, but stand by. I’ll get it in a minute.
