Brazier from car drives with their own hands

Good weather and sunny days urge people to go out into nature more often, meet friends, go hiking with their families and have picnics. To have a good time, you should prepare everything in advance, purchase the necessary things, tents, buy clothes and, of course, cooking facilities.

The brazier is most popular - with its help you can cook food on an open fire or charcoal. Nowadays there is a wide range of barbecues in the shops, so it’s easy to find the right one. If you wish, you can buy a stationary grill or a miniature camping option.

But if you have free time and desire, you can try to build it yourself. The article will consider an interesting and rather unusual way to create a brazier from a car disk.

If you are interested in the idea presented, you should learn more about the design options and the various ways to use the discs. Among the most common options are the following design formats:

1. Use single disc. The easiest way to not require training. It is enough to put the disk on the ground, build a fire inside the case, and put skewers or a special grill on top.
2. With legs. It is more difficult to manufacture. To do this, you have to take additional tools and metal pipes to create a stand. This option allows you to quickly and safely place the grill on any surface.
3. Double. To increase the amount and quantity of coal produced, a double variant can be made. This will use two disks from the machine.
4. Closed stove, which can be created from ordinary wheels. On top of it is possible to install a pot or kettle. This will create a universal option for cooking the first and second courses.

You can choose one of the presented product formats or create your own design suitable for your personal needs. Consider the time and stock up on the tools you need to complete the job.

Attention! It is not necessary to choose one particular type of product. You can combine several designs and create your own unique device. But at the same time it is necessary to preserve the main function of the brazier, so do not deviate much from the main idea.

The preparatory stage includes the following actions:

1. Preparing a place to work on the creation of mangal. It is necessary to remove unnecessary items and free up space.
2. Check the availability of all the necessary tools - grinders or hacksaws for metal, a file and a wiper, a drill, a hammer and a set of metal tubes of small diameter.
3. Select the appropriate format for the future frame of the product.

Prepare everything according to plan and take care of safety. Now you can start creating a brazier. We will not describe the usual option - it will require only the presence of a wheel, and as an example we turn to the construction of two-discs. The stages of its implementation are presented below:

1. Thoroughly wash discs from accumulated dirt and rust. For difficult areas, you can use a sweep brush or grinder with the appropriate nozzle.
2. With the help of the grinder, cut the internal partitions in the disk to make a bowl for placing firewood in it and making a fire.
3. If the disk has a lot of holes, you need to brew them with a metal plate, but you should leave small gaps for access of oxygen (it provides a burning process).
4. Do all the necessary manipulations with the two disks, then align their surfaces with each other. Secure with a welding machine.
5. Now it remains only to make the mounting or legs. Weld or screw metal pipes to the bottom with bolts. It is advisable to use a tripod, placing all pipes at an angle of 45 degrees to the ground.
6. At the outer perimeter at the level of the weld, make holes for bolts.
7. Make the door, which will be fastened with bolts, for simultaneous control of the fire and cooking products.

Take this model as a basis and, if necessary, modify it by upgrading individual elements of the barbecue.

Attention! The product must maintain its integrity when cooking products, watch out for its strength and reliability of fixing components. You can test the grill after completing the work. Particular attention should be paid to the legs: they must withstand the weight not only of the disks, but also of the fuel and cooking food.

Creating a homemade version of the barbecue has a number of benefits:

1. Relatively inexpensive method due to the use of scrap materials.
2. The ease and convenience of work - in some cases do not need to use additional tools.
3. Durability and reliability of the design, ease of use for cooking.

But this option has its drawbacks. These include the following:

1. The structural elements are quite heavy, so the brazier is quite difficult to move and take on hikes.
2. The impossibility of warming up without the appropriate supports, and from the ground the brazier will quickly cool.

In general, the presented model is perfect for giving and a country house, with its help you can have a great picnic for the whole family.
