My New Pit

admin

Take a look at my latest project, a fajita pit. I made it with my Lincoln 175HD MIG and a GiatnTech plasma cutter. I cut the end off of a 250 gal propane tank to use as the base. Attached Images
Reply:That is very cool.  Did you put a drain under the raised Texas in the bottom/inside?
Reply:Yes, there is a 1 1/2" hole under the Texas
Reply:Very spiffy, I like it.Looks great even with all the Texas's on it...hehehe  Nice job
Reply:Very nice. i'm more of a nebraska boy myself, so texas isn't my style, but that looks really nice... how do you like your plasma cutter? i have been pondering a purchase from gianttechguy, but i'm still undecided. how are parts availability and cut quality? those are the two biggest concerns of mine.Later,Andy
Reply:Andy,The plasma works great for me. Consumables from GiantTechGuy show up in less than a week. It doesn't seem to chew up consumables too fast if I keep the air dry.Here is a close-up of the deer cutout It is about 2 1/2" high. Attached Images
Reply:The Texas, deer , star pattern was what the customer asked for. Just trying to please.
Reply:Wow what great project looks awesome. I've been wanting to make grill for our back yard.   What procedure did you use to safely cut through the tank?

Reply:Nice work. I have one that has been waiting on me to build it for 10 years now, just never seem to have the time.The difference between art and craft is the quality of the workmanship. I am an artist.
Reply:very very nice man,TEXAS ROCKS dont listen to them other guys   lol
Reply:The tank was open to the air for 2 weeks. Just before I cut it was purged with air from the compressor for about 3 hours. I reduced the purge to a whisper and cut the tank.
Reply:nice pit... better then the stainless Steel which I made... good clean job
