It may sound anal, but it's very important to not just say "a weber". There are a few different types of weber, and some of them are as different as can be. The two most used Webers for LBC uses are

I agree with #2, but IMHO with #2 in use the digest actually becomes a pain. ...at list in direct mode, all the MG stuff filters together, and can be sorted by subject. Then at least if you start to

I am a big fan of the air nibbler and use it most for cutting, but it's almost useless for cutting metal off a car. It's only really good on flat sheet, any ribs or corners hang it up. I have always

From my (limited) experience, the price difference is incredible. I use valvoline oil usually, and a 4L container here is about $5 Canadian, which is about $3.50 US. I think that's about inline with

All common logic would say scrap it, but it can all be repaired and it sure is a lot of fun to do. Add up the dollar values of the panels you need, and make your decision from that. -- Trevor Boicey,
