"New" Grill!

As I mentioned in a previous blog, I worked on a project to restore my grandfather's grill (with the help of a David "the master craftsman!")

Anyway, I wanted to show it off.

Now, why did I decide to restore it? Memories, for one. My grandfather would grill "the best steaks" - at least we all thought they were incredible. My mom always thought it was due to this grill.

Well, my parents inherited the grill and used it for many years. Then recently, when I heard they were going to take it to the dump, I asked if I could give "fixin' it" a shot.

David and I first took the entire grill apart. All of the bolts, nuts, brackets, and anything else attached was removed. We then pressure washed it, painted it, added new hardware, cut new boards for the shelves, and added a new grilling surface.

The photo above doesn't even begin to describe how bad it was. Here is a link to the before/after pictures:
