Got some more stuff done yesterday.

Welded on the handles to the cooking grates.





Then decided to tackle the tank flange since my welder buddy couldn't stay late to help out- it wasn't fun. Couple of burn holes, couple voids I had to re-do and a big glob of weld I had to grind down. It ain't pretty but it's done.





Then I ground down the end of the rails that were sticking out. Before:



After:



I even rounded off the corners and beveled ends to make it easier to get the racks in.

I started to layout the opening for the air intake and cut that out.





Then I cut a rail for that and got it tacked up.



By that point I was out of time.

More coming next week. Thanks for lookin!
