Grinding down my "welds"

Mmm staining (painting is boring)


1st coat of varnish all I'll get time to do today (did I tell you how much I dislike painting)


Painted frame (dropped it and bent the corner, hopefully should be able to bend it back.

Cheers guys, yeah pretty large garden.
BBQ on it last night, no where near finished, but worked a treat although it was far to hot untill I finished cooking. Remeber for next time even though grill is very high 5kilos of charcoal is to much. i was surprised as it was only about1.5 coals high and the grill way above that. Wasn't expecting to get that much heat of it.

Still no sign of the rotisserie I ordered. Fired them an email, so hopefully get a reply on Monday.

Friends actually suggested getting a suckling pig and when I said I had already looked into it and how much it costs, they said they would all throw £10 in.



Oh and if anyone has any ideas on how to have an adjustable grill shout away. Was thinking of cutting the wire panel I have down and welding a frame to it. But as for adjusting the height easily, all I can think of is complicated ways.

I'll second the pig! Seen it done - twice - while out in North Carolina. Pig Pickin' - Nom! (but find a decent recipe - they vary, a lot) Takes bloomin' ages but it's oh so worth it!

Go to a breakers yard and find an old oven. pull the shelf rails out of that, weld to either end of the drum (inside) and voila! Just slide your cooking tray/grill into that

[edit]
Looks pretty damn awesome already though, sir

I too advocate the cooking of pig!

Just need to work out how high it needs to be and how I'm going to mount it.
