    Modifications and the Finish of the Weber

    I just did this yesterday on a new 18.5" that has had two smokes on it. With painter's tape it was a piece of cake and no chipping issues. I just started small with a pilot hole and worked my way up till I got to the size I needed.

    Storing ET732 or other similar digital thermometers question?
