My Weber cover lasted over 10 years, but I realize they're very expensive to replace. Wonder if old tarps will do ....

Stuff Needed

1- Large , heavy duty tarps. I got a 7' x 9' for $4 at Harbor Freight Tools
2- Duct tape
3- Bungee ties

Measure & Cut

I gave this to my kids as an engineering project and they didn't have much pics. Basically, you lay the tarp on your grill, fold over the corners, cut off the excess, and duct tape the seams. I guess one can use ironing too ...

My old cover had Velcro, but it got brittle & broken off. Might as well fix this too Just open one end of the bungee, thread thru the metal grommets, and tie off the ends.

All Finished

I hope this will last for a while.
