Weber Genesis Platinum, I bought in Wausau,Wisconsin. Will be drastically modified.

Mark, you might want to consider putting the plates below the cross member. That lowers the tanks a little bit, adds a little lower center of gravity and would also provide a stop on the inside of the plate to keep the tank from sliding in towards the grill.

 

[Cody Bratton]

Have you considered some supports coming off the frame above the casters? I don’t think it would necessarily need them. But would be effective and look pretty sharp!

have to open the pic to full size to see my horrible artwork...

 

[MarkCuda]

Bruce, I did consider welding the plates underneath but said heck with it.
Underneath has the same amount of weld.

 

[Bruce]

What was your thinking on not doing it that way?

 

[Cody Bratton]

Those aren’t going anywhere!!

 

[MarkCuda]

My thinking was I already had them C-clamped on, didn't want to move them underneath

 

[Cody Bratton]

I never thought of factoring in where the table would sit, and flushing it up with it!

That is what dreams are made of, Mark! That looks so much nicer than the plastic end caps! So much cleaner!



Now my question is, will the end pieces for a slatted table grill, line up with the newer style tables? They look awfully close!!

 

[Bruce]

They should fit fine Cody.

 

[Cody Bratton]

I had a pretty good feeling they’d line up just by eyeballing it. But hadn’t tried it yet.

 

[MarkCuda]

More eye candy.

 

[Bruce]

Hey Mark. A thought just popped into my head. While that grill is SS, you put on some mild steel wheels. Unless they are SS as well, you might have a problem with rust on the posts of those unless you have a way for water that gets in the frame to drain out.

 

[MarkCuda]

Left table secure, works great.
Bruce, I may paint the metal on the casters red

 

[Cody Bratton]

You made your own bracket instead?! I can get behind that as well! Are you going to get stainless rod for the table brackets then? Drill a role for an R clip to fit thru it, between the bracket and table and it’ll never fall out!?

 

[Bruce]

Mark, I am thinking about the threaded posts on the wheels that go up and inside the frame. Water tends to collect in the bottom of the legs when there is no way for it to drain out.

 

[MarkCuda]

Yes, I fabed up a little bracket and drilled a 17/64 hole in it.
Bruce, this grill won't see water.
Cody, I'm just going to use the factory rod.

 

[MarkCuda]

No dropies

 

[Jon Tofte]

Mark,
This quite the adventure! I will keep watching to see what happens next.

 

[Cody Bratton]

Did you get the other side with the sideburner fabbed up?

 

[MarkCuda]

I got the side burner in place and the inch tubing that was on the grill is now at each end of the flip up tables.
Left side flip up will be done Tuesday.
I'm looking for 4 unique utensil holders I can weld on the ends.
I don't want to make something for fear that it may look cobbled

Check that link for possible tool holders that I texted you.
