The Ace Hardwear in Diamond Bar (Diamond Bar Blvd and Golden springs Blvd) next to K-Mart has expanded steel and all the fittins you will need.

I dont use galv either but stating the fact I work in the food industry for years which got inspected by the FDA, military they never said anything about galv. lot of the commerical oven rack are galv . Lot of water lines are gal, pipe. If you weld on it and breath the fumes you can get gal. poison whith flu like sympton. But of course you heating it to around 3000 F.

It's not about finding the expanded metal. I can go lots of places for that. It's not about the cost, either. I get satisfaction from making stuff myself - - come over to my house sometime and you'll see all of the things I've made when buying might make more sense. That is a blanket Brethren invitation, by the way!

I was just wondering if it would be safe to use in a pinch. It'll probably collapse or burn through quickly --- oh, well. Is it safe?

I've seen an old car wheel used as a grill before. Worked fine. There are some folks here that could cook fantastic food no matter what tools they were given, that's for sure.

And Dr_KY -- it's a bit foggy here today, so the new crack in the floor underneath the cash registers at the DB ACE from the earthquake may be a bit hard to see. They covered it with red stucco tape, so you just might catch a glimpse...

So do you think one of the 2 mentioned would work for a basket?

Barbarian · 09-14-2008, 04:31 PM

Maybe, but I would not mess with it.

Smokin Mike · 09-14-2008, 05:04 PM

I always figured trying to save a buck, or thousands for something is not worth anyone's health at all, never. so if it was me, I would just step away , stick with what everyone knows thats safe. heck who knows what the importers are doing with the metal, i don't blame them for saving here and there, they have to, and never figured that someone would ever try sticking it into a fire
