Stampede Another Stampede Front Shelf

[OregonGreen]

Followed some of the others modders on here and added a folding front shelf. Decided to go with 3/4 inch HDPP cutting board in raw meat red. I only used the 10mm leg bolt for the hinge mount as the other holes did not align with a good drilling location (it also keeps it pretty much stock). I did have to bore out the hinge hole with a step bit. Seems to work perfectly and looks pretty sharp with the red casters I added (wheel mod). I debated having a guy at work CnC a Stampede logo in it but decided it would just catch drippings and grime.

Weekend Update: I should have left a bit of a gap between the shelf and grilling chamber. Found out HDPP is only good to about 215F. After doing some burgers at 420F the edge slightly melted where it was touching. I guess it gives it the 'well loved look'.

Nice work buddy. The red is definitely making a statement haha... I wouldnt worry about the melted part. It's just now form fitting...

@OregonGreen I really like the shelf and the use of a cutting board. Nicely done buddy!
