nice project! Sure took you a long time to get it cut though. :lol:

 

Lookin' good there. Best be bringing this to FITF next year.

 

Had to let the wheel cool down a bit, and ~ 3.5 hours or so I think. We took our time. Well I did, my buddy was snapping pics, and smoking a damn cigar.

 

when are we firing that bad boy up? need to have a HUGE BBQ g2g :lol:

i love it Kevin, your not going to paint it right?

 

High temp paint on the grill.

Trailer will be just Black.

Then fire brick in the grill. Should be good to go, won't flake or ruin the food.

 

That is so full of win. I'll send you some Santa Maria tri tip seasoning when you're done

 

Sounds good Kris!!!

 

Nice dude!

The lab I work in is right next to the engineering machine shop. I was screwing around with a plasma cutter the other day... I think I would have killed myself spending 3 hours with a cutoff wheel. How much is it going to weigh?

 

Wow Git r done Focus gone country ya'll make sure yous grab them hog halves for the grille their.

 

How much WHP will this give you?

you must have alot of patience to sit there and cut that open into the dark.

 

Should have at least bought a Sawzall. :lol:

We made a badass grill when I was in Iraq out of a gas tank from a 5ton truck. It was sweet. But we cut it with a Plasma Cutter, only took like 3 minutes

 

Sawzall would have been too uneven (not like my cutting is all that straight!)

 

Why would it have been uneven? you could have still followed the lines that you drew with a Sawzall...probably even easier.

 

Eh, neighbor said it would be jumpier than the wheel.

 

Yeah sawzalls are harder to cut in a straight line because the blade likes to bend and twist.

 

I've cut a LOT of stuff with a sawzall (I do a ton of fabricating for my racecar) and if you put the blade all the way in, so that the metal that you are cutting sits next to the guard, it won't bend and twist.

It's a moot point now though because the cutting is done, but it would have been WAY easier.

 

There is a TON more cutting to be done.

 

Get a sawzall. :lol:

 

Own 2. Battery and Corded.

I'll attempt that, along with the Oxy Torch for some stuff I need to do.

 

awesomeness. pure awesomeness. can't wait to see it!

 

That's gonna be so cool!

 

Yea sawzaw for the win

 

Design layout, vid with cell phone aimed at monitor.

 

nice! Keep at it! Gonna use a set of focus tailights on it?

 

PFFT NO.

Just typical trailer lights.

 

Looking at your design, won't that be too much weight on the tongue of the trailer? Do you have things that will counter balance it at the back? Since your tow vehicle is FWD you don't want to be putting too much pressure on the back of the car.
