    Curb Alert !!!

    Yes, I just download and print the manuals. I bought a bunch of 9x12 clear packs that seal like ZipLocs to put them in. I think it adds another "like new" touch to selling a refurbished older grill.

    Curb Alert !!!

    Other than the Skyline version, to me the only potentially re-saleable 2-burners are the very late Silver A with the cabinet doors and thermoset swing table. They look enough like a three burner Silver B to possibly command a little more respect from flip buyers.

    I will just leave this here

    Nice, especially knowing it is an AZ grill. The sides and back of these are very prone to rust along with the bottom frame that holds the hinges. If you wanted one, that looks like a good choice. I know you would make it sparkle! As the late Rich Dahl used to always say, "In Arizona where rust...

    Genesis Restoration one of the Twins

    Steve, Even though it is tax season - to the max - I took a breather and went out in my shop - and fresh air - to see what I have. Unfortunately, the four identical clips that I have do not look anything like the one you are needing. I wish I could have helped.

    I will just leave this here

    I have a few, but I have already promised some of them to Bruce who gave them to me in the first place. We are going to be reconciling things we each have for the other soon. If I have more than he needs, I would be happy to share. I would even host a "mini-meet" at my house and we can get some...

    8" Wheel Revive Experiment

    Looks really good. I used to like the newer "flower" or snowflake design, but now not as much. Those look stunning, Cody! I did pretty much the same treatment you used on my 1st generation Summit wheels. After two years outside, they are still holding up quite well.

    I have one new one of those in my stash! They aren't always easy to come by.

    Weber Parts Deals

    If the x000 ones like Mark bought were $40 with the drip tray, bracket and pans, I would likely buy 4 or 5. The price for the x000 GrillParts.com one - with no extras - is pushing it to me other than for a "keeper". I guess one of my first projects after tax season is to get out all of my x000...

    Love the blackout Twin, Josh! It won't be around long for you to admire your own work, so I am glad you posted it here for all of us - and for you to look back on :coolkettle: .

    Make a Midwest run and visit Bruce, too! EDIT: Posted simultaneously with Bruce's post. Great minds run in the same direction!

    Curb Alert !!!

    It's too bad we live so far apart. You would have a blast picking through my years of accumulated hoarding of old Weber parts!

    I will just leave this here

    I am a fan of old American Motors cars - yeah even the Gremlin and Pacer! I would LOVE to have that thing. Believe it or not, the values of Gremlins and Pacers - that are still left -are on the upswing.

    Weber Parts Deals

    I previously almost never use tongs except an earlier Weber set that was a little more like a double spatula. More recently, though, I finally see the benefit of using actual tongs. I still flip burgers and some other stuff with a spatula. For me the fork is what goes unused. Looks cool, though!

    3D printing an old part

    Oh well, so Weber did not reuse the old Summit/"fat frame" Genesis Platinum size insert. The old ones are really hard to find. I would think the Genesis II ones would be easy (not cheap :rolleyes: ) to obtain.

    Looks like she finished cleaning them and laid them out nicely to dry for you! Maybe she wants to be more involved in your grill rehabs!!!! :smilekettle:

    3D printing an old part

    I am thinking that would work, but I don't have time to measure one of my fat frames right now. Maybe tonight or over the weekend. That generation Platinum inserts are also identical to the ones on the first-generation Summit as Larry mentioned.

    Here is my 2025 grill that i will be restoring, Genesis 1

    I wouldn't consider getting to 600 faster the only gauge of a grill's effectiveness, but I also think that a lot of us here - self included - tend to discount the new Webers because they aren't built to last two decades like our old Gennys - or forever like your SnapOn Beast! When in good...
