Fify

i wanted to tell you that i'm hijacking matt's thread. :focus:

Why don't you two take this little tête-à-tête private and get this thread back on topic.

Good idea.

It's a straight wood burner.

That thing looks too clean J! Have you cooked any birds with it yet? :heh:

By the way, that's a great build, but the OU logo is what puts it over the top! :thumb:

That barrel is insane! Awesome. Back on track here is the grate/basket I through together at work.

Great grate! Will you put legs on it?

Man...I really like this. Beefy door, too. Flanged, even. Now that I know who the fabricator was, I'm not surprised at the craftsmanship.

That's a great idea! Right now I have it sitting on a smaller ring 5" high off the bottom. Might just have to make some legs up

Whichever way is easiest for you to clean out ash.

Looks good Matt! Here's my original version. Three 5" carriage bolts, the rebar middle rod never lasted though. After a few burns is when i realized I needed the criss-cross to keep the coal base.

You mean the rebar handle couldn't take the heat?

Nope, the intense heat pretty much softened it and when a split was added it just bent.

I got to give this some thought .I just might have to build one.

I can handle looking at that all day.
