Projects DIY Low budget Homeade Grill....Not too shabby!

Yea, that was my initial thought as well. But, if i cleared the copper, I dont have any other copper on the truck so I thought it would be out of place.. and if i didnt clear it I wouldnt want the green patina copper creates in the enviorment.

 

pretty damn clever!

 

Nice job, i like it.

Does your bed have the small square raised lug pattern, that looks like a meat tenderiZer lol, i tried to get a bed like that off of a one before with no luck.

 

Boy is it waaaay too early for me. When I saw "Homemade Grille", I thought, "Oh, he built himself a hot rod barbeque." Ooooops!.

That is some nice work you did right there. I have a ways to go before my fab skills are that good.

 

that looks great thanks for sharing

 

that is pretty slick! Great job. be sure to post some pics when its mounted on the truck.

That's exactly what I was thinking.
Nice job. I was a little concerned as to how it would look from the first picture, but it looks great finished. Will be looking forward to seeing it on the truck.

 

there's no raised lug pattern anywhere on the bed.

 

Really cool stuff! Glad you shared with us!

 

Sweet!!

 

I think you need some new shoes, those are ****ed up,

Nice job on the grill, very sharp.

 

Very cool idea!!

 

Thanks everyone for the feedback...

Bishop= you mean not everyone has a fifteen year old pair of Chucks they use to skate in and now use for garage shoes?

 

I am a huge fan of home built parts. Looks good.

The guy asking about the squares on the bed..... a local 48 with a knox box is made from 1/8" "not diamond plate" but has raised squares pattern instead.

 

Oh, ok, I get it now, thanks for the clarification.

 

Damn it some people will build anything, cool grill love the truck !!

 

Great job!

 

Thanks again,, I'll have some pics up of it all together soon.

 

I like it.
Another fan of making and repairing here.
Thanks for sharing

 

Hey, what's up man!
Your Truck looks cool in your avatar. Post pics!

 

Cool stuff! Thanks for posting! tt

 

i read an article like yours and get mad all over about the stigma that seems to be attached to the term "homebuilt"---that grille is pure genius. that's what it's all about. 2cool

 

nice,,reeeel nice.thanks for the tech

 

Imagination at it's finest level. Nice job!

 

Thats sweet! I like your creativeness. The cooler idea would be pretty *****in too, only downfall would be trying to fix a repair, guess thats part of it though. Can't wait to see more pics of the truck. Good job!

 

That would have made a decent entry for tech week. Nice job using a little different materiel. Don't see copper used much in hot rod fabrication.

Ollin, thanks for the post! you posted during the weekend, I take it you didnt go to Viva!?

Well when the funds are scarce, thats when imagination REALLY kicks in, thanks for the kind words.

Trying to get the build pics of the truck within the next couple of months when the project is a little further along, thanks.

 

Looks good dude see what a little creative thinkin can do for you! Very nice bro!

 

Nah, took a break this year. Did you drive it out?
