Building a Fire Pit/Braai/Grill from scrap metal and basic metalwork tools.

Hi KZbin
In This video I build a awesome looking fire pit/Braai/Grill.
This Project took me about 3 weeks by working on weekends and in the afternoons after work.
Thanks for watching my video. More is on the way.
I Used the following Materials.
* Old Truck Rims from the local scrap yard , R22.5.
* 50X50X6mm Angel Iron cut to 1 meter pieces.
* 5mm Steel plate at 550mm OD for the bottom of the ash tray.
*10mm Steel plate at 415mm OD for the bottom of the rim.(overkill)
*Random steel grid to cover the holes in the rim.
*12mm and 8mm round bar for the cooking grid.(12mm at 1.7meters)(8mm at 15meters ) for one.
*45mm Chains. I Used 14 links for each side.
Every Thing came from the scrap yard except for the round bar .

Wish I had that scrap metal! Mine all fits in a 5 gallon bucket! And I have never had a "scrap" semi truck rim!!

[@iantheodore7366]

Go by a truck stop and ask they will give it free most of the time.

[@notapro1698]

We have a local steel scrap yard where I get most of the stuff.

[@monicaras1216]

Ho yes, almost forgot, id like to see you build a glass tabel with a V8 Chevy bloc pistons and rods incorporate in there as well . Thanks

[@notapro1698]

Sounds like a good idea , will let you know when I find one.

[@jimthomas1989]

Monica ras , I been wanting to do that for years , but I don't have any Small block Chevy V-8 that I can use for a coffee table , I do have a V-6 and a straight 4 cylinder

[@stienieengelbrecht6727]

That 👍🏻 made on the steel plate was very creative. And the design of this braai can only be described as bad ass! I love it.

[@Randy7201]

​@@notapro1698 Hoe kry ons een van die rigs

[@specfever2]

I like it, but let's be fair: most of that was not scrap metal.

[@notapro1698]

Thanks , Not the grid that was bought as seen in the description , also I will make a video one day of what you can find in some of the scrap yards , currently just busy with a very big project that is taking way too long.

[@williammurray9651]

no one wants to hear the music, We just want to see the build. Just being honest. It's just annoying

[@notapro1698]

Thank You for the honesty , I will improve.
