This was posted on the Weber Owner's Club on FB. Very unusual but kind of cool. Definitely thinking outside the box.

That must be owned by Ronald McDonald...
 
The old Spirit was not made after 2016, right? I doubt the guy paid $700 for it new anyway. But, he still wants $300 for it. I notice there is no picture of the inside of the cabinet. I wonder why?

One of my other crazy hobbies - an occasional offshoot from my grill restoration - is restoring old tools. A while back I posted this one that I did for my organization's thrift store in Florida. Underneath all that rust was a pretty nice, Made in USA Ridgid monkey wrench:

Last week was "Covered Bridge Festival" here in our part of Indiana. My wife and aunt-in-law went for the crafts and clothing hawked by vendors all along the roadsides; I zeroed in on a vendor selling old tools. I picked up a few old Made in USA Craftsman items, a 7/16" wrench and 7/16" sockets (for obvious reasons), but the real jewel was this $4 crescent wrench from the ORIGINAL Crescent Tool Co. in Jamestown, NY. This vendor just had stuff out in boxes where they were rained on:

The transformation on this one is not as dramatic. I decided to use satin black paint to give this old wrench a modern twist:

Jon, do you know anything about date codes on these tools? I have this made in USA Proto crescent wrench that I can't remember where it came from. It has a code of F-7-3 forged into it but I can't seem to figure out if that means anything or not.

Could be the correct age. They are still making it. With a cover, and part of a roti ... not the worst deal ever.

Based on the responses to Jon's post it would seem that an entirely separate thread devoted to old tools wouldn't be a bad thing.

Now please excuse me while I lovingly yet non-euphemistically caress my Schick 24" forged aluminum pipe wrench.;)

I don’t know about the date codes Proto uses, but I do know they make excellent tools.

I am so mad at myself for failing to take an “after” picture of this Proto wrench. It had a special support strap on it thAt reduced play and was the nicest monkey wrench I have seen. It turned out very sharp; you will just have to trust me on that.

Proto is still in business, so maybe you can contact them about yours.

So, anyone know about Fuller crescent wrenches. Definitely not a new model, but seems well built.
 
Is a 2002 Silver with a side burner the same frame as a 2002 Gold?

Was thinking a cleaned up Gold with a side burner would be a decent flip candidate for spring.

My bet is that it is only for rotisserie. The motor bracket is installed. Maybe they took the middle burner right out of the grill!
 
OK, so we have had Genius grills, Webber grills, and some others...Here's a Weber girl:
