Maineac,
Looks like a clip of Joe Traeger when he did a cook on a gasser that didn't work out.
Is this storm damage or???
This was my much loved 2004 Weber Genesis Silver B which I bought new and rehabbed in 2014 replacing all the innards. On August 1, 2015 my area was hit with a microburst with winds up to 60 mph. The result of which you see here is from a “Perfect Stormâ€. The grill wheels had never been oiled and it didn’t want to roll and squealed when it did. I was having a new deck built at the time and while the decking was done, the railing was not. Two hours before the microburst hit I oiled those wheels and you could move that grill with one finger… or a 60 mph wind. It did not survive the 9 foot drop test.
However, the frame was repurposed -
I can totally empathize with you. Just last month we were having our deck expanded, same scenario, railing off, microburst. Only I forgot to lock the wheels on my MAK2 star. Grabbed the cover less than 6" before it went over the edge. Won't do that again.
Thank goodness the wife called me to watch the storm and deck.
