    How do you repair the molded ceramic spark box when it comes loose from its support. I see this often. There has to be a fix. I have been doing this for years and have always just bought new ones when this happens.

    Summit 470 built-in

    Have a question, I have a customer who asked me if it is possible to convert their Weber summit 470 from a stand alone to a Built-in? I said that's something I'm not willing to do myself but I'm not sure if it can be done, has anyone tried that before.

    I have been buying or picking up from the side of roads webers and refurbishing and reselling for about 6 years now and have done at the least 500 of almost all. Within the last year by word-of-mouth people have asked me to do warranty work on theirs. I would show the customer how to register...

    Finished this refurb 1975 Kettle

    About as far as I am going to go on this one. Did not replace the handle on the lid, might consider doing that Monday but not today. I could not buff out the stain underneath, not even sure what that is or maybe just because it is 47 years old it is just there. I did replace the charcoal grate...

    Refurbing 1975-76 kettle

    About to finish the refurb on this old kettle but was thinking. Do I buy the hinged grates for this or just the straight grates? What was used in the 70's? Do I keep as original as possible or update with hinged? What are the thoughts of all of you?

    It has been a long time since I posted or commented on here, although read the threads at least weekly. This grill here would make # 450 for me since I started refurbishing Weber's in 2018. I picked this one up in Pensacola for $25 and it is in amazing, although dirty condition. If I am...

    Worst Weber Ever?

    I am working on a Weber Genesis II 410. I have posted before that I feel that the Genesis II and Spirit II are the worst Weber's ever. {understand personal opinion). I refurbish Weber's and so far this year have completed 105 and have done at least 300 Weber's since 2018. I try to avoid working...

    1980 Red 18" Kettle

    Picked this up for $15 off Marketplace. Took some time cleaning it, still didn't get it as shined as my Military mind hoped it would be. However, I replaced the Wheels, ash pan, and both grates. All combined I think it all came up to about $100. More then I would have ever spent on any other 18"...

    Weber Genesis ii 310 burners

    What is the difference between the NG Burners and the LP burners? Weber sells both. I understand the difference of the Orifice sizes, however I was just at a place that sells weber parts and looked at bother burners, I couldn't tell the difference neither could the sales person. Just wondering.
