Every chance I get I head off to the bush in the Campervan for a bit of Big Sky and fresh air. Well nothing beats sitting next to the fire, except when the fire is one that you can cook a meal on. So the idea for making this Camp Grill was borne. (No Plans) This grill can use Wood, or Heat Beads.
This project can be made pretty quickly, Maybe in a day. You do not need to have the metal folder or rod bender. There are numerous ways you can make the bends in the metal.
The Plate Steel is 3mm Mild. The Grill, handles and supports are all made from 10mm Round Bar (Mild Steel).
I used High Temp Matt Black paint on the outside of the steel only. Additionally I gave the grilll a good burn before using for food.
If you are interested in the Sheet Metal Bender. I have made two videos on the build of this tool and also it's modifications.
The Rod Bender is pretty simple, no video sorry, though if enough people ask for a video on building one of these I will do one.
Special thanks to!
