Good question! I took photos of the whole process, but now I can't figure out where they are. When I find them, I'll post it in another thread.
In short, these are the stock rims. (I copied this from another site.)
It took me a long time to figure out how to attach the pizza pans. In the end I decided zip ties were the most convenient way. Maybe I can communicate what I did without photos....
- I used the 3 slits around the outer edge of the rims to tie down the pans.
- I also cut 3 corresponding slits into the pizza pans. I used a Dremel cutoff disc -- real quick-and-dirty -- to make the slits.
- Using the same cutoff disc, I shaved off a shallow tunnel on the reverse side, to fit the zip tie and allow the pan to lie flush.
- Then I zipped them onto the rim at the 3 slits.
Tip: Wax the pizza pans when you're done! The pizza pans are not aluminum, as I assumed, but steel, as a magnet will confirm for you. They will rust. Mine certainly did. I tried rust remover on them and all that did was spread the rust uniformly around the pans. Next go around I may even consider painting them.
