He doesnt have planning so hes going to take it down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

energyzone Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 This is my BBQ shack/outdoor kitchen area, wanted to go for something that was an authentic nod to the places ive visited in Austin and Nashville/Memphis. Not finished yet but getting there. The rest of the garden is being done but I dont really care about that. Are your posts sunk into the ground? What is the material you are using for the walls?I'm going to build something similar early next year but probably a bit smaller. My skills in this field are very basic though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, lean some old doors against a wall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wee shelf that its on was built up with a retaining wall thats to be finished with casting. Its quite sturdy, the timber on the walls is just to give a bit of support to the metal sheeting and prevent any sharp edges. Im getting a hardwood workbench in under it too and ill hopefully top that with slate or some other stone which will let me set up an ooni too. Gonna get my smoker built this week when the other work is finished. Took a bit of inspiration from places like La BBQ and Terry Blacks in Austin and some american home bbq places like meat church and this guy on reddit (photo below). Ive got a traeger 575 which is a pellet smoker that im dying to get started with, hoping to eventually get an offset smoker and will have a set up like the guys in the picture. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nkomo-A-Gogo Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 A disaster with the roof. The steel sheets lifted up in the wind. They were the wrong type for the degree of fall anyway and water would have pooled in them. It was beyond my ken to fit them so cheerio 500 quid. Was some laugh getting them down as was still blowy af. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nkomo-A-Gogo Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Been a while since an update.... Finished the inside cupboard this weekend. Waiting on a guy doing torch on felt for the roof so the whole thing can start to dry out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spud131 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Cut the front grass for the first time this year yesterday and it's ended up with all these lines where it looks the grass has died. Anyone any idea what would cause this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
