    I reached out to the guy, I'm going for it.

    I will just leave this here

    ???? Never seen this, or heard of it before. But searched for "weber summit flat top" after seeing this listing and apparently it's real. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/446587553315950/

    Restore help on Genesis 1000

    I just bought a lifetime supply on amazon for my project. I love McMaster Carr, but really only resort to them for the most obscure of hardware/material. Can't beat the online catalog for doing research though. Also, I hit them with a quick shot of paint too, just for a bit more protection...

    Rocker switch

    I'd say definitely a 3000, from pictures I've seen here the OG Genesis do not have that rocker switch bracket framing the switch on the panels.

    Question about genesis Lids

    I just checked a Genesis 3000 schematic vs a Silver B schematic. Both quote the same part number for the 'lid assembly' Part 60582. So that looks to be the case. Wood handle should be fine too, looks like they all bolt up the same way...

    WOW. Now that's the one that goes in the living room.

    Free green platinum in CT. Man I am lucky I don't have a pickup truck and a bigger yard. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/510920460009332/

    I'd say the biggest flaw on that piece is the broken rocker switch bracket. Something so small and the only way to find it is via a donor grill.

    It really is well-cared-for-6-burner-gen-1-summit season in this state. First the stainless one yesterday, now this today. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/896387867778148/

    I will just leave this here

    Who cares if parts aren't available. Just imagine this guy smiling back at you every day on the deck. Not cheap, but I cannot get enough of this line. Also, in a neighborhood in NJ where all homes are in the 2-3 mil range and annual property taxes are more than many salaries. Probably spent...

    Weber Genesis 3000? Restoration.

    Something is up with wood, at least around here. There is no cedar to be found, none of the box stores have it. I promise!! I did want 3/4 actual thickness but still something is off. The sapele I got was $3.xx/ft for 1x4, I guess in the ballpark of oak. I'm kind of out of the loop on...

    Weber Genesis 3000? Restoration.

    Yeah, I walked in on Saturday morning and told them what I was trying to do and they said look around in their storage warehouse. So I picked this stuff out before knowing the price. And then after hearing the cedar price as a comparison, I was less upset. Wood is not cheap right now as...

    Weber Genesis 3000? Restoration.

    Okay, been a few weeks, but we've continued to make progress. Took the cookbox apart and cleaned to the best abilities of 3 grinder batteries. Never get a battery powered grinder. Looking back, I'd go the sandblast route (what does a local guy charge for that?), I didn't realize all the old...

    Vieluxe Rebuild

    I'll admit I'd never heard of that model until perusing around on the forum a few years ago. But I feel like if you ever see one you just buy it instantly, and figure out the details later, knowing you are in for a job.

    Stainless Steel Grates

    I ordered my RCPs and was just expecting beefy rods that hold heat. Actually thought there'd be big tack welds where the rods were held to the connecting bar. Nope, resistance welded and totally beautiful. Rods are beveled at the edge too. It's one of those things where you pick them up and...

    Grill tools

    I bought the weber deluxe set 4 years ago and have left outside hanging on the hooks and they are clean and still going strong. These things... I am stunned they have held up, look brand new.

    Who's feeling ambitious today? At this price, maybe you can get the needed parts fabbed up. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/288764669484290/

    Weber Genesis 3000? Restoration.

    Grates: In my current Spirit 700 daily driver I bought the cast iron grates new about 4 years ago. They are the best, I really like using cast iron. I compared both with a set of calipers and they're much beefier than what the Genesis ones have eroded to. That's why I'm tossing them. I'll...

    Weber Genesis 3000? Restoration.

    I guess to rephrase, for the cookbox and end caps for that matter. It'll work like a dream, or you can go at it all day with the wire wheels. Carbon off will really help it along though. And as I see it, it's a one time thing to undo a previous owners 20 years of food grime.
