Some of the restoration pics:
This thing had several hairline cracks. JB Weld did the trick.
Inside shot of crack repair
High heat resistant paint. Even though this puppy will never see temps above 325F.
BGE gasket

Thank you. I'm very pleased with it.
Yes, that's the original orientation- or at least thats how it was when i found it (as shown in the green photo). It swivels up and down, there are stops that allow it to go up to about 1/4" higher than horizontal.

Gotta love Grandpa!!! He took good care of that!
:biggrin1:Ive picked up a few of these over the past 2 years, and love them!!!!! I have learned a lot on this site about them too. If you have problems with the JB weld, then you will need to go get some of that furnace and fireplace adhesive. It really works super good. Here is my restore, it is a little outside the box for color, but it is what I like!!! I just ordered a official replacement cover for mine.

I currently have to play with the top... Off....on...off...on to control the temp. I'm hoping that the BGE daisy wheel will fit it.
