Two problems:
1. a toasted 1.8 out of a parts car and
2. burnt out drip tray on my grill.

Problem solved...

I split the cylinders lengthwise and welded them to some scrap steel to hold them in place and I have the coolest/hottest drip tray in town. Actually works quite well, although next time I'd rearrange them to nest together a little better. The barrels act very nicely as a heat bank and the fins throw the heat off evenly. The dirty grill adds a touch of flavor.

I return you now to serious 914 discussion.

I think it is very cool but have to agree with Zach on this. Some metals even release different gases when hot enough. Some are very toxic.


But what kind of metal & cadium is on your grill made in China? I'll take German Gas anytime unless I move to Poland
