26 mounted on performer silver

[Fernando Pineda]

What do you guys think? I want to do it because the three legs are wobbly. Would the 26 sit too high? Should I replace the frame with some conduit and bend it into shape? Or shorten the existing legs so the 26 bowl isn't so high?

Time for a table build... maybe a work cart. Fix the legs may be possible.

As is the bowl would sit too high. You could cut the legs down but the work table would be too low. Maybee build from scratch.

If you’re going to bend conduit, build it from scratch, you can get the height where you want it (I’m 6’2” and extra height is a blessing) as well as make a side table as large as you want.
Keep the one stock and “hot rod” a new table/carriage you will be happier in the long run.

Anyone have the link to the 26" Performer a member made?

It was really nice metal work. I'm thinking about getting one made for me too, just wanted to see some pictures again.

Take a look around there for some ideas.

If your worried about the legs I would suggest the mini-ranch build. Here is my build: https://tvwbb.com/threads/mini-ranch-kettle-build-complete.64026/#post-710010 you can also do a search under mini ranch and you get some ideas on how others did theirs. Member Steve Porter was one of the first there have been others after as well. Dave W or Dave in KC (short memory) did a no drill build if you don’t want to drill into your grill.

I would highly suggest it. No wobble, you can adjust the height a bit and it’s on wheels making it easy to move around.

Dustin's grill is amazing! One day I'll upgrade my 26" like you did.

It was really easy. No welding and you don’t have to be too handy to make it work. Biggest expense is the ranch frame and then some misc. hardware. Very practical modification and it looks really cool...
side by side with the ranch.

Thanks everyone! I have an idea now

While it wouldn't be as cool as the mini-ranch, I bet you could figure a way to put a 26 on a Harbor Freight cart.

Those easily fit a 22 WSM, so you'd think there'd be enough room.

Rolling Cart for WSM
