As title, would prefer if at all possible for enamel to be undamaged but OK if slightly nicked/chipped. The fittings/accessories don't have to be perfect condition as I'll be using the lid (possible the bottom) for a lid for a UDS as the stainless one I re-purposed is (a) too damn heavy and (b) I don't think seals very well
PM me if you've got one, I'm on the South Lincs/North Cambs border and would prefer fairly local if at all possible

Old chap,
If this is for an UDS you might be better off looking for a cheapy 57cm kettle on eBay, reason I suggest is several UDS builders have had to fettle their 57cmm lids with pliers to make them slightly bigger to fit a std drum, try this with an enamelled weber list and I think it will end badly......

But if you are one of those tech ninjas who will do some kind of welding on bits to give the lid a lip to sit on then carry on Sir, again would give eBay a glance......

Cheers
Tiny

I've been looking on eBay bud, all of the affordable ones seem to be in the Western Isles or Cornwall (i.e. too far away) or worse Wisbech (shudder! ). I'll keep trying and keep looking in the new year. Take on board your comments ref the enamel and fitting the lid to the drum, and indeed I will be re-engineering the top lip so that the lid fits without having to go mad with the pliers

Just saw this on ebay http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 1028873602
if it's any good, £36 with free delivery

Thanks for the heads-up, I'll watch that one while I make my mind up. Can't decide whether to build a reverse offset and lose the UDS, as above but keep the UDS, or either of these first two but buy myslf a 67cm kettle which I've lusted after for some time, the only retard on that being the eye-watering cost of a 67cm kettle brand new! Decision will be made in the new year.
