The firebox wheels come off when it is in use and it has steel feet it will sit down on. |

FYI, I did line my firebox with firebricks I got from Northern Tool. They are regular 4-1/2"x9" but only 1-1/4 thick used for wood stoves. Box of 6 is about $13. They are easy to cut to size & shape with a diamond wheel on my small Makita grinder - they work great.

Looks good so far. Quite a leap from the COS, huh.
Any idea how to lift it to remove tires?

When will your restaurant be opening?
Just kidding... man, that is a serious meat monster! Nice design... I love seeing someone take an old tank and turn it into something awesome. Good job!

I can lift it enough to point it in the right direction. We thought about swivel casters, but worried about heat since they aren't as easily removable.
