I am really happy with how this project turned out. I've wanted a Konro grill for a long time. Making it myself makes it even better.
Thank you to Princess Autio for sponsoring this video and providing me with the ProCut 30 plasma cutter. I am super impressed with it and look forward to using it on upcoming projects. You can check out the plasma cutter here: www.princessauto.com/en/procu...

With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich.

I love this idea! I miss Japanese street food from when I lived there 2000-2006. You've inspired me to make one too. Only change I'm going to make (because of my OCD) is too layout the perforations and still using a step bit. Cheers!

I love the design of that, very professional looking. I made a more industrial looking travel Barby a few years back from an army surplus parts bin, I made the grill almost identical to yours but the grate was just a bent at the ends piece of heavy expanded metal. I put full length detachable legs on it so that it could free stand. Used it until I left the country, wish I still had it.

I wanted a similar thing for my 'porch of cookers', as I love to cook outside as well. I made mine out of 1/4" plate and the shape of a drywall pan, used to do that professionally, so i kinda stuck n design. Works perfect except it's too darn heavy, haha. It will be around more than likely for generations to come. I like the term yakatori for mine, don't know or care if that's correct but that's what I call it. Enjoy

Great vid! Thank You! How is the air flow when opening the vents? I personally would have done it a bit different design-wise and I would have definitely put them on opposite sides of the box to maximize air passage over the coals. Great reference in any case, good job!

Thank you! I find they do work fairly well and do notice a difference in the coals when I open them wide or close them up. It offers a decent level of control.

One potential upgrade would be a large opening (possibly on one of the short sides) to access the coals without removing the grate.

@Simplelittlelife 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah I’m thinking about that. Might be nice for cleaning too. I also might extend the legs on the inside grate so the food is closer to the coals. I’m hoping that would allow me to use just a thin layer of charcoal instead of 2-3”👍

@SharkyMoto 3 жыл бұрын

@@Simplelittlelife i think you need a certain thickness of coals to get an even heat, if its only like 1 coalpiece high, i recon it can be pretty uneven

Nice work. Little curious, wy do you use tig and then mig weld on different spots. Is tig better on detailed work?

@Simplelittlelife 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you. Yeah, TIG is better for smaller stuff but also can be just as good on big stuff. I find TIG moves around less while tacking as you can control the heat so much more. I probably could have done this whole thing with MIG but the truth is I was to get better at my TIG welding so I did a fair bit of that as well. They are both so different from each-other yet just do the same thing. 👍

@tayred81 3 жыл бұрын

@@Simplelittlelife cool, you would recommend someone like me who has never used a welding machine to start with MIG if i understand you correct. Thx mate 💪🏻

@Simplelittlelife 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, mig is definitely a good one to learn on. Good welds come quicker on a mig and it’s useful quickly. There are still things I wouldn’t trust to my tig skills. Yet. 👍

If you are using skewers you may not need the grate, removes chance of the meat adhering. Just make sure to soak wooden/bamboo skewers in water (~20 min) first.

It is very bad idea to use BBC-Building to show us how this steel cutter works and that unprofessional soldering machine. No soldering is needed !!! if you thought a bit , you may build this box by bending the sheet you have the box missing the small sides, them you make the small sides with rectangular surroundings fit into the sides , then secure them with 4 screws Same thing ventilation cover, you do not need to solder anything , just put 6 screws as guide and fit two vertical screws into two horizonal line on the external plates, this line will one inch wide and 3 mm width and can be done by any drill
