    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    I don't know either, I just left it alone. One of the odd things about the Internet is that there are people out there that believe their way of doing anything is the best and only way. Anyone daring to do different will only be berated.

    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    So I picked up my donor Weber kettle this morning and had a red hot go at it. I ended up going with the bending-out-of-the-lip method, and it has worked really well. All that is required is to straighten the lip a little and hit it with some filler to smooth out the transition where the enamel...

    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    I see, sorry man, I got you now! I didn't REALLY want to start hacking at the lid, but considering my unique situation, this might be the best idea yet! Picking up my donor lid tomorrow (have been using my good OTS as a dummy) and will check that it's all the same and investigate the smashing...

    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    An interesting idea. This would also afford me a bit of extra room for running 2 cooking grates. How do you find the strength of the drum up top without the rim?

    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    Thanks for the pic David. Unfortunately I won't be able to do this, unless I make the ring significantly higher due to the hinge I will be using. http://unknownbbq.com/22-5-weber-kettle-lid-hinge/  is the hinge, and you can see in the pics of it in use on a UDS that it sits just under the lip of...

    Thanks. I will investigate this further as a possible solution tonight or over the weekend (it's Friday morning here).

    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    I wonder if I could combine that idea with one I saw elsewhere. Cutting the bottom half of the donor Weber so I have the factory Weber lip on a ~2" ring that I push down into the top of the drum. What are your thoughts on that?

    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    Hi all,  I have a few quick questions on fitting a Weber 22.5" lid to my UDS built. Here's a few dot points of note on my build. My drum is a removable lid, with the outwards rolled lip on top of the drum. The Weber lid does not sit over this lip, but about half way across the lip. Searched for...

    Where to mount the grate??

    Firstly, try not to get too upset about people not replying to your thread within 15.5 hours of creating it. Everyone has more than the forum in their life, and I'm sure you'll get some good answers when people get a chance to respond. Also, maybe consider consolidating some of your questions...

    How many intakes are needed? How aobut exhausts?

    Thanks. This confirms 2x 3/4" valves will be ample for my drum. Where I live, the average temperature during winter is 61°F (day) / 46°F (night) and during summer is 84°F (day) / 62°F (night), with heatwaves regularly up to 108°F.

    How many intakes are needed? How aobut exhausts?

    As above, I would have thought this is ample. I plan on running 2x 3/4" valves and a 1" cap. Cap will be removed for getting temperature up, then put on when up to temp. Ball valves to control temp after that. 2x 3/4" or 1" should be ample airflow for low and slow, or hot and fast I'd have...
