I bought the Big Pappa Shield, Bottle Opener, Side Handles, and Basket Lifter. I should have gotten the Cooking Grate for my Diffuser to set on for $16.
I had the basket built using a new Charcoal Grate for a Weber 22.5. I had the sides made from Large Hole Expanded Metal 12 inches tall. I got a piece of probably 3/16 SS rod for the Bale. I used 4 each 1/4" Bolts 4 Inches long to hold the Pizza Pan "Ash Pan". I used fender washers on both sides of the Grate, and 4 each 3" pieces of SS Tubing for the bolts to go through as stand offs between the grate and the ash pan.
For the Cooking Grate holders, I used 1/4" SS screws 1.5 Inches long. Install with the head inside the barrel. Install a SS Acorn Nut on the outside, and an SS Nut and Loc Washer on the inside the barrel.
I installed 4 sets of holders. The bottom set for a Diffuser. Cooking Grate with Pizza Pan on it with a few holes in the pan.
I got 2 Weber Replacement 22.5 cooking grates at Lowes.
I used a Dome lid on my build.
For the Air Intakes I have 90 deg elbows Male on one side and Female on the other. I used a Brass 3/4 Pipe to Garden Hose adapter with a Garden Hose Brass Cap for a plug for 2 intakes.
I have 30" long rigid Pipe up the side held with a SS U-Bolt near the top. On top of the Pipe I have Full Flow 3/4" Ball Valves, again with 3/4 Pipe to Garden Hose adapters with Brass caps.
Probably over kill, but I like it.
I have not ordered a Maverick 732 so far. When I do I will put Brass Probe Ports in the side using Brass Hose Barbs.
I have not added a shelf so far. A shelf is handy, but messes up using a Kettle ot Vertical smoker cover.
