materials have become to expensive for the single hand artist such as myself to build custom bbq pits and make a buck. Finjd someone who does it all the time. You will come out ahead. I plan on building 4 more pits inthe next year or so for family. Right now 20 in pipe is selling for 52 bucks a foot....used and drops.  _________________ I LIKE MINE FRIED. |

The guy starts with a base model, then he can add butane bottle holders, extra shelving, turkey fryers, etc. If I had one extra thing to add to mine, it would be a damper at the fire box. Maybe you and I need to talk? _________________
