What is the metal grate called? where did you get it?
Can you build it up a little bit higher and make the bottom cinder block so you don't have to keep bending?
Really nice grill
awesome!!!!
this works fast cheap simple
I built a similar grill nearly 40 years ago and used it for almost 20 years. I placed a layer of blocks with the holes horizontal on the bottom covering the entire area of the grill. I did not want my fire on the ground. Also, my third (by your counting) layer was identical to the first. You only need 2 half blocks if you do it that way. I had a small table nearby and did not use capstones. Mine had a 16 inch square grill and was sufficient for a family of four. A couple of years ago I built a 16 by 24 inch one for a friend.
Soooooo…..Grill for midgets?…..lol
This is a superb wood working book I have ever read, “pepe amazing plan” (Google it). It gives a lot of general information that will help any novice and also some skilled woodworker. Amazingly, this book has been my partner when I wish to look up woods at areas along with other topics like restoring as well as salvaging spots.
You've inspired me. Been watching vids on building a backyard fire pit, and I stumbled upon this.
Thought to myself why not build something I can also cook with?
Where is the cement… Dangerous if bumped in too. They will move around.
This is so nice! I am in the process of rounding up my materials! Can't wait to get started!
Are you always speaking of inches when describing the list in the beginning?
My back hurts just looking at how low that thing is
This is an old school way of making a fire pit/grill. I would probably go another route in order to make it more stable and permanent….good share for some who maybe didn't realize how easy this could be..
