I'm using this 16qt pot for a heat diffuser/drip pan/cooking pot. Wait till she finds out.
Strike 2
Fit is perfect, doesn't interfere with the grate.
I think it will be necessary to build a center charcoal basket and I wanted to have this versitile and to cook any type of way but I rather spend money on something else.
My wife's favorite chairs. I hate them and IMO they are gay. Every time I go to get up and get a beer the arms reach out and try to pull my shorts off. Hate them, haven't sat in them for years.
So I cut one of them up, she found out
.
STRIKE 3!
The jar lifter that I stole out of the canning pot works perfect as the frame for the chair back. I just removed the handles and set them aside, can't throw anything out because I might find a use for them LOL. Notice NO sharp edges anywhere and NO ugly wires to hold it together. Cooool Huh?
The basket is 4 & 1/2 inches tall and the same diameter as the SJ grate
.
This is how its held together NO sharp edges anywhere. The SS #10x3/4 self tappers cost $.10 ea. from walmart closeout.
Inside detail, screws ground down flat.
Another view.
Here it is sitting in the extension with the SJ grate under it. No big pieces of coal should be able to go through the bottom
.
Stay tuned because this is a wip and I'm still working on it.
