New Attachment for the WSM?

[Eugene A]

Hello, Everyone:

In one of my Facebook groups someone posted a photo of his WSM. It is the standard WSM, with one difference. The legs are attached to the bottom section, and where they would normally sit on the ground they seem to be set in what looks like an aluminum dish, which looks similar to the heat shield at the bottom of the smoker. I asked him about it, and he said that he purchased it from Weber. I went to the Weber website, and I didn't see anything. I did a quick web search, and I couldn't find anything. I didn't think to ask him what purpose the attachment/accessory would serve.

Does anyone here know of, or ever see, this accessory/attachment for the WSM?

A pic would help.

Did it look like it had wheels underneath. My guess would be they use it to move it around, but they don't want to tell you how they did it (why I don't know)

Check this page out and see if it looks familiar

Not exactly similar to the heat shield, I'll admit...but my point is that I don't understand what purpose it would serve.

That looks like a hot water heater tray.
I've never known something like that to be a Weber part number.

I think the purpose would be to keep their deck clean , and as joe F stated , looks like a water heater tray....cant imagine they bought it from Weber

Seems like it would just collect rain water...

Ditto Joe F. And I would NOT depend on it from burning up a wood deck

And one other thing. That smoker is way too clean
