    I'm struggling to post more than 1 pic at a time for some reason and they aren't very clear.

    Welded up you plenum. I knew there was no way I was going to have pretty welds that close to gether on all those corners so I chose to bevel the edges, weld it and grind it.

    My first attempt at a build.

    I welded some tabs on the inside of the cc to make it easier when putting my door back on. I thought my door sprung a little bit when I cut it out but now that I put it back on, it looks to be flush everywhere. There's only a very thin gap between the door and the cook chamber. It's as thin as...

    I'm having a hard time getting together with my buddy who welds so I'm thinking about doing it myself. Because I haven't welded in a long long time and I wasn't good when i did, I'm thinking about doing a V bevel and then grinding it flat so my ugly bead doesn't show. What do you think about...

    So what's the best material to make your fire grate out of? I was thinking of making mine 16"x14" so it will have about 3" under it for air circulation and for the ash to drop. I was thinking of using 1/2" round bar and stealing this guy's idea. What do you think?
