I just added a couple files to Thingaverse. There is two styles of tank holder, which I have called "A" and "B". There is a file for each style now in Thingaverse. Note the illustration for "B" is from the schematic for an export model is is has a type of tank hangar I've never seen, I...

FYI, I believe that this color was a special color sold through William Sonoma. Model 827996 Schematic I forget what year mine was. I'll try to ask the guy I bought it from to ID it.

Me too! It would be great to get a Performer with all stainless construction. A charcoal grill for a lifetime. Maybe with a 26" or, available in 22" or 26". I don't know the Weber gasser lineup, but I think there are (or have been) fully stainless gassers. It would be nice to see charcoal...

There's a couple of different styles of the SSP tank holder. The tank holder is 2 pieces and I have seen two variations of each piece, potentially there are 4 possible variations. I have only seen three, I do not know if all 4 variations were available or when different ones were. At any...

These are my orders from 2016 & 2017. The shorter one is for the OEM wheels and the longer for heavier duty aftermarket wheels. Aftermarket wheels (In couldn't find this wheel this fall and used a similar from Tractor Supply where I bought my latest 5gal. LPG tank; Tractor Supply site offline...

I don’t know how this compares to other suppliers, this is where I have purchased it. They used to have a location near my house, but have moved to a different part of town. I think it was the only location, the seem to have multiple locations, or maybe partners now. I recently bought some...

I used ASA. It should be sunlight resistant and hopefully heat tolerant enough. The printer I have access to is not enclosed and pieces this size didn’t print perfect, but, well enough (and better than polycarbonate.)

This is the completed grill with the 3D Printed shelf (and frame rail end caps.)

This is excellent, again, thank you. It’s great to see the naked frame. My concern with the bottom shelf is not that I don’t want it, but, more what will happen when it rots away. Hopefully, I can I can mitigate rust on the two frame members. Fewer joints will help for sure. I’m going to try...

Excellent, thank you. I’m partial to the SSP; this grill will be in a salt water environment which is consuming my SSP. Hopefully the new frame style will be less susceptible to corrosion. The attached pics are of the SSP that was refurbed 7 or 8 years ago, with all surface rust removed and...

I’m looking at picking up my first non-SSP. I prefer the older one with the black frame and the stainless front panel. On the newer style with the grey frame and painted front panel, is the bottom shelf stainless? Are the shelves interchangeable? Can I install the Stainless(?) shelf from...

That's brilliant, will use this on the next one. I did find these for applying paint/primer inside the tubes. They are long enough that you could cover the whole SSP top frame, applying from each end. Unfortunately, not compatible with the can of Fluid Film I had; the FF button came off with...

Thanks. The ideal solution would be to have a wire shelf made like the OEM, but with thicker gauge SS rod.

I've struggled to paint or prime the inside of the tubes on all of my restos. It really seems to me that for me the Fluid Film is the way go. I think that it is absorbed by rust and saturates it to where moisture cannot get to it. My concern with priming/painting is that it ends up on top of...

You can trim the flange under the silicone cap. This nicely fills the hole in the control panel and allows the panel to lift off without removing the cap. As well, the cap fits on the lower assembly as intended and requires a shallower press to activate. 65737

Beautiful Grill. That looks like my 1st SSP. Restored and gave it to a friend. I was certainly not as careful on the rust removal and paining. I just printed these and they seem like they may help keep the Frame Rail joints dry and hopefully rust free for longer than without. Frame Rail...

If you are installing a 65737 in a SSP, there is a flange on the button as seen in the attached promotional photo. This can be cut off to where it is slightly smaller than the silicone (?) cap. I cut it with a set of flush cut diagonal cutters. I'm sure there are various and better methods...

I recently restored my 6th SSP. It has been 7 or 8 years since I last restored one. One part that has always bothered me with these grills is the bottom shelf. It is always dirty and rusty and not fun to clean and nearly impossible to de-rust. I've designed and printed a replacement shelf...

I recently restored my 6th SSP. It has been 7 or 8 years since I last restored one. One of the problem areas on these grill is the joint where the Frame Rails bolt to the Frames. This time around, I decided to improve this area of the grill. I designed and 3D printed some caps to cover these...

I recently restored my 6th SSP. It has been 7 or 8 years since I last restored one. I've always used the 65737 electronic igniter. It's always bothered me how it never fit quite right and was prone to move around and sometimes fall out. For this one, I designed and 3D printed an adapter that...
