I'm really surprised at the hardness of these little discs.

Looking forward to using this next weekend.

Man you don't mess around Rodcrafter, it was just the other day you were inquiring to another member regarding where they purchased their disc at because you thought you'd like to make one of these. Your passion for outdoor cooking and building things certainly shows in your enthusiasm and ambition ,you make me tired just trying to keep up with your post!

Welding,
You're right I did just asked that question. But a buddy got me one for free. So you know, when obsession calls.

Stewart,
Thanks

FC,
Funny thing is when I went to get the flat bar, I got 1/8" and 3/16" just in case I didn't like the thin stuff. Then I talked to Fishless Mickey, after working with the thin stuff and said " no wonder a lot of these guys use thin stuff, it's easy to work with. "

Thanks fellas, I'll get you some more pics when I'm all done with it. You should have seen my sweetheart when she heard me say the new part for my trailer rig. She let me know it is finished this is not for the trailer rig. I'm not sure but, I think she is trying to tell me something. lol
