Had a great fourth and created my own fireworks. I lighted the grill and went inside. After getting comfortable the grill blew. What a shock and LOUD. So I get the tear out done. Think the grill could be fixed but it is over 15 years old and the wife would never be comfortable. The grill was bricked into the fireplace so had to take it apart to get it out. This is a well before ....so ok could not find the summer pics. Now that is the hole after removal. And this is what the grill looks like now. Now I need some help. Trying to keep the walls surrounding the old grill . Oh SWMBO wants a smoker grill now and it won't be built in. Want to cover the rough bricks inside and am looking for ideas or how to. Thought maybe stucco but dosen't that need a flat surface. Or what about hardy board? Ok I am out of ideas.

Wife ordered a Weber propane grill. Delivered Friday. It came unassembled with 45 pages of assembly instructions. Supposed to take an hour. Took us four. Neither of us are mechanically inclined. This grill was made in the good old USA. Once we figured out our right from our left and, up from down, it went together perfectly. The guys who engineered this thing are geniuses. The fit and finish is flawless. I was amazed at how well all the parts fit where they were supposed to. And, how sturdy it is. American manufacturing isn't totally dead. There are still companies making excellent products with pride.

Bought a small grill this Spring and been meaning to build a table for it to sit on. Have a friend who builds decks and he gives me some composite deck material if he gets too much laying around his place so the material for this project was free. The legs are made from railing stock. The cross braces are milled from a deck board and the flat surfaces are made from fascia material. The railing material is pretty rough and requires quite a bit of sawing and planing to get them to a usable state for making furniture. The table top is 42"X20" and stands 32" tall. After all the sawing and planing I had almost 10 gallons of debris. Here is the frame screwed together. My design has no visible fasteners from the top. I used all stainless fasteners and the aluminum cross pieces are to screw the surface material to the table from below. Didn't care for the legs and their height on the grill so I did some heat testing and made some shorter aluminum legs to my liking. Here are a couple small tables I made about 10 years ago. Wash them off each Spring and they hold up well. Put new chains on the swing I made about 12 years ago and used stainless chain since the galvanized rusted badly even though it is under roof.
