I like tinkering a bit too. Mainly with metal. Made this pot a while back, and it seems to have a few fans that want some. They will have to wait for winter I guess.

Looks good mate you could sell them at the markets as extra income over winter

Naah, the time it takes to make them, I could do 2 fruit tree pruning jobs, or a cleanup, and make far more money. That one has an aluminium framework. I need to use some thinner steel angle and weld the framework I think. Pics of the bar please?

I have recently replaced a 4 burner stove top with a 5 burner. I have kept the 4 burner as there is nothing wrong with it and plan to build a timber trolley with cuboards on casters that I will fit the 4 burner into. I have all the jets and fittings to convert it to run on LPG. Thought it would be good for out the backyard and also for taking camping. Take the the stove top out of the trolley and sit it on a purpose built stand.

I will have to take some photos when I get around to doing it.

Just realised for camping all I need is a fold up table and cut the guts out of it to sit the stove top into. The gas bottle just sits underneath
