BBQ from Hell- what was I thinking?
Well we went out last night and got a new BBQ, as ours was literally falling apart. This morning I went down to the car and brought the bbq upstairs. Around 9 AM I decided that I'd put it together, I started to unpack the parts ( there where so many).I sat for almost 10 minutes looking at all the parts wondering if I'd lost my mind, but hey I had all day
I opened the instructions only to find that there were two revision sheets, and three parts that I had no idea what they were because they wern't in the instructions.. First the body, no problems yet but I'd only been at it for 45 min. Then the wheels, no problems as yet but I'd only been at it for 90 min.
Then I started putting the front together, nuts and bolts in the oddest places, some I could just bairly reach, I got a cramp in my affected arm and couldn't get it out of a paticularly tight spot (what was I thinking), but I eventually got the arm out after the cramp stopped.
By the time I got it togehter it was 12:55 PM, it took me almost four hours to build the BBQ ( with two wrenches, and a pair of pliers). Last picture is the finished product, all parts accounted for, and no mistakes. I wasn't going to let it beat me, but next time I'll leave it for my son
I've already got chicken breasts defrosted, I'm going to officially break it in tonight
