They have a company here in Texas selling them in stainless. I want to build the bottom since the top takes actual enginuity.

Be careful if you weld stainless. It’s one of the few welding rods that produces truly toxic smoke.

I've been welding a little stainless with 309 rods. I have good ventilation since I only do flux core anyways.

I just wanted you to be aware of the toxicity. It can really make you sick. Good luck with your build.

Not a top. But I did my Santa Maria grill off of Etsy.

No crap. I couldn't remember if you had gotten it from Lone Star as a surrogate twin to the smoker.

I was back and forth when I was looking. But decided on the one I got for several reasons. Part price, part simplicity and a few others.

Yeah, I want a brasero on the back. Something on the sides will melt my rotisserie.
