Jim I am in Fairfield, va just outside of Lexington in the Shannandoah Valley. Where are you located, I don't recognize the city.

Thanks for the pit compliments. It was not talent, it was actually the first thing that I have ever built using steel. I had a couple of friends helping also. The key to getting it the way I wanted to research, 100's of hours of looking at the internet and designing it on paper before we ever started.We built the trailer and all and then ordered the axle to the width of my design from Dextar. Start to finish once we started the beginning of October 07, I worked a minimum of 20 hours a week and finished it at the end of March 08. I plan this fall to go back and add a warming box over top of the firebox. More pic's of the build at http://s42.photobucket.com/albums/e331/Ruben111/BBQ/

I think all of the pits look great, it is a fun project to undertake.
