Hey there JSnover ! , I am lucky enough to work in the pipline industry and don't weld myself but have good friends that are. They were nice enough to put together the pieces when I gave them the parts , The big pot is a ten inch section of ten inch steel gas pipe and the small pot is a eight inch section of six inch pipe.....Big pot holds 200 lbs +- small pot 20 +- for hot plate.....burner is from Wally World , King Kooker , comes with 2 ft legs but i cut half off...works great and is strong. Sorry about the reply but still trying to figure out how to put in paragraphs....digger

Thank you Buckshot......I noticed that corner of the cave seems to be settling a little lower these days.

And thank you so much for the tip GP100man (as you can see) Been trying to figure out this posting thing here as I go......
Casting is positively in order here soon, been using some lee die's and having a ball ! .
Mean while , been on the waiting list with a lot of other folk for a 452 and 402 from Mehec in the group buy section [smilie=s: (scuse my drooling).

Any how , thank you so much Gentlemen !.....digger
