Sure do! I'll have some pics with the side table in the next set of pics. I ended up getting 7 z bars (2 on the side table, 1 for the swing, and 4 for the bottom tables) and it was $38. About $5.50 apiece. Shipping was grouped in with all the other stuff I bought. It was $28 to WA, which wasn't...

Here's where it gets interesting for me. The tables that came on the grill were pretty well toasted. Z brackets were rusted through and barely hanging together, and the durawood slats were warped and dry rotted. The lid handle was actually in pretty good condition, so I set that aside and saved...

That's funny, I must have downloaded a datasheet fot a different product. I baked at 250 per the instructions I found so no harm done I guess. I have no idea which product I followed directions for though lol...

No good before pics of the frame components, unfortunately. Really though, they weren't in that bad of shape. A little surface rust on mating edges and just inside the ends of bars but that's it. I gave everything a good long citric acid soak to get rid of the rust, neutralized, and coated the...

That was kind of my logic - I might have spent $500 on this when all is said and done but it is going to outcook anything else in that price range. Plus it is cool!

Thanks! The lid came from a clapped out donor. Might have been the only solid part on that grill. Worked out perfectly because the green one ended up being thrashed once I started cleaning everything off. Unfortunate though, I really wanted the green! I'll have to keep my eye out for another...

Thanks, that's good to know! I was a little concerned but figured the grill shouldn't be getting outside its working heat tolerance .

Alright, here's the firebox painted up with Rustoleum High Heat. Got the lid end caps painted too but failed to take a pic mid-process. Cleaned up the red lid pretty well with oven cleaner and then polished it up with simple green and steel wool. Looks like new now! The logo I cleaned up and...

I'm pretty terrible about taking pics in process, so bear with me. About the time I got the grill, I found this forum and saw some of the awesome restorations folks have done and started getting more ideas. This project evolved pretty quickly from a basic clean up to a full-on frame off...

This is been kind of a long project in the making, with just an hour or so here and there where I could find it. But I've gotten some help from folks here and wanted to post my progress in return! This is the first Genesis I've done and I've been thrilled with it so far. I'll post on this the...

I'll try that out - looks like a 10 to me. Thanks!

In my haste to tear down my latest project, a Genesis 1100, I removed the burner locator screws out of the firebox and promptly lost them. Yes, I know you don't need to take them out but they came out just fine so figured wth. Now I need to replace them and have no idea what size they were...

Definitely!

I went ahead and bought new wheels from Weber. Seems the consensus is that they are strong enough even if they seem flimsy! This is a complete strip down and rebuild from scratch, everything from the manifold has been completely gone through and rebuilt so I'm going for top quality. Looking...

That's my challenge - anything I've found that's not Weber would take some modification. I'm looking at the wheels that come on the 26" kettle and wondering if those might work better. They seem to be a little heavier duty. Part of my concern is that I added about 40lbs+ to the weight of the...

Yea I'm planning to stick with 8" wheels.

I'm in the middle of restoring an old Genesis 1100 that needs some new wheels. I can get the 8" standard weber wheels that came on it from Amazon, but I was wondering if anyone had any better suggestions or links for other options. I'd like to use something a little more sturdy than the standard...
