I don't have the patience or skill of bbrock. I'm also lazy. I used a 1.5" hole saw to open a hole on the bottom, dumped out charcoal, refilled it and sealed it back up with a piece of duct tape. Once it's mounted on the gas tank, the duct tape isn't visible. !0-15 minutes.

That was the only problem I had with the drill method, but it was a big one. I guess with a 1.5" hole, you could probably get the springs and sandwich re-positioned before refill? |
