My compliments, D Crockett, and I agree safety first. I used to staff a burn unit, molten metal disasters are very bad! I have a dark star burner and a dutch oven that holds about 50 lbs, very rigid and heats fast if you can keep the spiders out of the venturi.
I finally got around to working on it a bit. I think it was probably sturdy enough as it was, but I had free scrap metal and a welder so I added to it a bit. I probably won't get around to trying it out until sometime next year, but it looks plenty solid now. Please excuse the ugly welding. I didn't take the time to clean it up, and I'm not a very good welder.

Looks like you and I went to the same welding school. Just remember -
A bit of grinding, a bit of paint, makes a welder what he ain't.
