What are you guys doing about the tank bumpers?

Bruce,
I liked the open cart look of your 13 bar Skyline Platinum. The black really popped on that one.

 

[Bruce]

Yah, I think it works good as well. Especially with the black knobs and handles. I am thinking about dropping a Blue lid on it. That is my personal grill. I think the blue and silver are a great combo. Blue and black work well together too.

I wondered if they were all that necessary, Since I keep my tank covered with Weber synch bag. I see you seem to add an extra side cross bar for it.

 

[Bruce]

Yah, they don't hang straight without it and might bang against the grill when moving it. I guess I never tried without it and figured it would be pretty much necessary so I welded in that bar along with the front and back cross members.

I like that application; I am just not a welder and I decided against drilling into the frame for now.

Bruce,
That Silver Platinum with bottom the panel is new one. Is that your latest creation.

 

[Bruce]

No, I have done several grills with that aluminum panel on the bottom. Both my personal FrankenSkylineDeepbox personal grill has it as well as a couple regular Genesis rehabs. Of course you can see this was a cabinet grill and kept the right side panel which was still in good shape. That had the mounts for the bumpers so I didn't have to weld in a cross member.

I vote for black. Silver paint just always to me comes off looking "contrived" and a little cheap

 

[Samuel]

Bruce,
Am I correct in thinking that SS head Platinum you pictured has a Genesis Gold lid with a Platinum badge. If so, was the badge a direct fit?

 

[Bruce]

LOL. You are correct on the lid being a gold lid. I just grab the closest parts sometimes. Was the badge a direct fit??? I think so, but don't hold me to that.

 

[Samuel]

What is this panel underneath the Burner/Control panel. Should I remove it or leave it. What is it for?

 

[Bruce]

It is to ensure that no one can put a LP tank inside the cabinet...which you don't have any more any way.
Toss it. I imagine it is rusted out anyway.

Ya know this is the second Silver A in a week I picked up like this…
