Mary, Thanks. I just saw your blue Genesis pics -- totally awesome! I'm feeling a little more certain about the firebox after getting started on it, and knowing you did OK with a wire brush. I'm going to borrow a friend's steel cup brush and give that a try, but I'm making pretty good progress...

Mine had two screws inside on the left side -- vertical through the tips of the front and back burners. They were pretty covered in gunk so may be hard to see, but they seemed to be stainless and came out really easily with a flat-head screwdriver. After that, there are two brackets on the...

And here are some additional pics. Full album is here

I got it just about all broken down over the weekend and started sanding the firebox. I'm definitely at the fork in the road I assume others have reached -- do I get every bit of the box and frame sanded down to metal and painted, or do I just clean up the frame, and only worry about the...

Looks great! I have to ask, was using the mouse sander a success? I've got a wire brush, a Dremel and a mouse. I used the mouse with 120 paper a bit today on mine and made a little progress, but I'm not sure I could do the whole thing. And what paint did you use?

Well, it's been 6 months since I found this rabbit hole of Weber gas grill restoration and I've been on the lookout for one to join my 10-year-old OTG. Finally yesterday I picked up this Genesis 1100 on Craigslist for $45 Genesis 1100 It seems to be in good condition. There's one spot of rust...

Meld Kickstarter Interesting. And heck, maybe you could just rig this up to a roto-damper with a constant fan and barbecue with it!

Tom, Are the 4.1 files still available? The links form the top of this thread are either restricted or (I think Matt's drive) replaced with other software. After another multi-month layoff, I'm finally getting my printer tuned up pretty well. I printed the 4.1 bottom last night, but discovered...

Just wanted to add on to this -- I did the same. Because I'm insane though, I brined, butterflied and crammed TWO turkeys into my Weber OTG. The HM kept it at a steady 350 for most of the cook. This is the first time I've used it for anything higher than smoking temps.

Ah, of course. Thanks Bryan.

Hey all, I finally finished my Reprap a couple of weeks ago! This might explain my complete absence from using my HeaterMeter for anything productive. I've now begun the life-long process of fiddling with calibration and printing knickknacks, but felt comfortable enough last night to attempt...

I ordered a few weeks ago from http://www.bbqequipmentstore.com/Replacement-Probes_c169.htm If you order two or more and they're $10 each. I got a pit probe and a food probe. But they seem to be short as well -- only ET-72 food probes in stock.

Thanks Mark. I'm cooking today, but I'll do this soon and report back.

My last cook, I discovered that my pit probe wasn't responding, which I figured was due to leaving it out in the rain. I ordered a brand new pit probe, an ET-73, but same result. Both old and new probes work fine in the other jacks, just not in the pit jack. I do however have an older, double...

Thanks, guys. I've got my printer mostly built, but haven't wired it up or looked at software. Including the printer, I'm working on a $700 HeaterMeter.

OK, who wants to watch my butt? http://kellymc.noip.me/ This is a pork butt that had been cut in two by the previous owner. Probe 1 is the big chunk, Probe 2 is smaller with bone. This is my Weber 22.5 OTG kettle grill with a Smokenator and my "airburner" setup. (Details here) I have stage...

How difficult of a print is the 3d case? I'm realistically maybe a month from having my RepRap up and running, but being a newbie I don't know what kind of results I should expect right off the bat.

I should clarify here, almost impossible assuming you don't go poking wires at connections trying to test outputs. I learned how to send 12v current into the Pi, which is why I bought two for this project.

Yes you can! As someone who was in a similar situation, I'll add to these good tips. -- Get a couple of beginner electronics kits for practice. I did a flashing led thing and a light-sensing car. Plus the kits I had were pretty crappy boards, so it was even easier working on the HeaterMeter's...

Fortunately, I ran out of money before I could order the E3dv5. The E3dv6 appears to be coming out tomorrow ... http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:5bNO4a0LlSoJ:www.filastruder.com/products/all-metal-e3d-v6-hotend+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us
