This would have been much simpler if the screws holding the original burners in place had come out properly.
All I was trying to do was remove them so I could clean them and put them back in.
I ended up having to cut most of the screws off. Since there was no clearance to get a saw blade in, I had to use a chisel, which was great fun.
After that, I ended up having to order replacement burners, because the screw ends still wouldn’t come out of the burners.
Then, the burners they sent me didn’t fit right, because the brackets were shaped wrong. After contacting the vendor, it turned out that they were the closest I was going to get, so I had to put them in a vise and bend the brackets to fit.
Amazingly enough, it actually works.

Dressed in a custom-made “Miss Iowa” jersey and a silver sash, Katherine Connors threw out the first pitch of Friday’s Washington Nationals game. Nationals pitcher Miguel Batista caught the pitch, which reached home plate in the air but would have been a little bit inside on a right-handed hitter.
The ceremonial first pitch came just four days after Batista compared Miss Iowa to Miss Universe, a parallel to how fans view him and phenom Stephen Strasburg. Connors said a lot of Iowa natives took offense to Batista’s comments.
And she is cute
Are you guys being swamped with the “no news” on Clinton’s wedding?

Their first half was pretty good this year, for once. They were 2 games back at the break.
