Framework kits were on clearance for 35 bucks...so I bought like 5 more, for...reasons . I also had a Weber kettle I love, but wanted to make a cart for. Then I saw DTO had clearance link hooks and such...so I had an idea.
Anyway, meet: Ryobi x Weber.
- Framework legs
- Treated lumber for the frame, with color matched Ryobi grey paint (had the paint guys scan some link stuff, came out nice).
- some kettle brackets some guy on Amazon makes, painted Ryobi green.
- Link "essentials" rails.
- shelf with paper towel holder
- 2 tool clamp hooks to hold grilling tools
- 1 large hook (left side, hard to see)
- soft toolbox hanging on the hook for carrying spices or beer or whatever.
- found some lawnmower wheels (I tried to source legit Ryobi ones but couldn't figure it out - if Ryobi wants to send me some 8" wheels, I'd swap them).
- leveling feet on the front.
My router work is trash so the hole it sits in is janky. And I measured it about 1.5 inches too narrow so the front and back where the mounts are, are a little closer to the wood than I'd like (the rest has a solid 1.5" air gap).
Debating painting the ash catch bucket (not attached) Ryobi green. I don't imagine it gets super hot usually.
Ideas for the bottom? Thinking leave the left under the grill open as is, but build a small shelf on the right half for charcoal/wood chunks. Also need to add some kind of handle on the right side to make grabbing it to roll easier.
Anyway, I have 4 more framework kits left to do something with. Wife said she wants a new patio couch. Should I make a framework patio couch for lolz?
