wga & sj coal grate mod

[mbshop]

cooking the other day with my wga and lump i realized i needed to make the coal grate holes smaller. best way is to use exp metal. i kinda stock up when i go to the metal place. had a near perfect piece. while doing this i remembered i had given my sj piece to my son. luckily the left over piece was near perfect, close enough. now i'm ready !

Care to "expand" on that? :wink:

Good plan. I just got a 3'x7' piece at a garage sale for the same thing on my Webers. I ALMOST felt guilty about stealing it for $3 :-o

these are laid on top of the regular grates thus making the spaces smaller. this makes it harder for the small pieces of lump to fall through. works perfectly.

Ok, now I get it. Riding with a bit of a bent rim today...

updated pic showing exp metal on grates to show how spacing is reduced.
