    I still haven’t figured out what a premier is, but I did watch it. I’ll have to look it up, because I keep seeing them pop up.

      It basically lets you have a live chat while the videos is showing for the first time.

      It was fairly new in this video, but I clean after each use, cover it and it's kept under a patio. Not much can happen to it.

    I pimped my Weber Kettle with a Spyder Grill Venom air controller and a Hunsaker Smokers air diverter! Gonna do a 3 wheel upgrade soon

    • @JaxxDrinkwater
      @JaxxDrinkwater  7 месяцев назад +1

      How are you liking the Venom?

    • @alanosborne1947
      @alanosborne1947 7 месяцев назад

      I LOVE IT!! I can actually control the temps and once I set the Venom it stays pretty close to that number. It fluctuates but stays within that number. If you're thinking of getting one I would say "what are you waiting for"?? 😏😏 @@JaxxDrinkwater

    I just used 12 inch wheels on mine, to make it roll better on ruff ground and lift it up 3 inches. I cut the end of a broom extension stick off and put it in the third leg to level it. I also used nylon bushings on the axles from Lowes, but they came the wrong size. I had to drill the center out to 3/8 which didn't go as well as I hoped so the wheels don't turn as smoothly as I hoped, but it works and I don't have to bend over as much to use it.

    I haven't done it, but Harbor Freight has some good wheels for 5$ each that you could make nice wheels on your grill. I have used them to make kayak and canoe carts.

    Got busy so missed the premiere - but loved catching up.
    Nothing like a little modding :)

    I like your idea but, I was hoping to get different rear wheels then what you used. I found some used Bolens wheels. They look really cool. The dimensions are similar. I have a Weber genesis silver. Is it even possible?
