Ross in Ventura · 11-04-2009, 05:49 PM

Old grid 4-4"x3/8 legs

New Grid 3-5"x1/4 legs bent out so they rest on the fire ring

Good mod idea.

switching to 3 bolts instead of 4, a definite thumbs up!

thirdeye · 11-05-2009, 08:50 AM

Good plan Ross. You should find that three legs reduces (or eliminates) and wobble you may have noticed with four legs.

Let me ask a dumb question, what is the purpose of the raised grill compared to the standard position or with using a standard grill on top of a plate setter?

Thanks
