BRAZIER DO-IT-YOURSELF, MADE OF METAL BRICKS, PHOTOS, VIDEO

It is difficult to imagine yourself who has not visited a kebab at least a couple of times during a season. Often, fees for nature are complicated by the absence of the main attribute - the brazier, which makes such raids even less often. In the end, you decide to make a grill with your own hands on your site, but you do not know which one to choose and where to start. Then we suggest you arm yourself with patience and study this article.

Varieties of braziers

The simplest and simplest type of brazier is a box made of sheet metal, located on twigs-legs, at the bottom of which coals are poured. Also in the design can be made holes and grooves for skewers. Folding or portable grill - most often steel structure of the same shape. Among the downsides of this type of structures is worth noting the fragility. In addition, if the walls of the structure are made of a fairly thick sheet of steel, the roaster becomes weighty in the process of carrying.

The construction of the stationary barbecue can be very different: from the classic rectangular to the fancy original. The same applies to size. When choosing a material, you can also not be limited to one: most often there are ready-made drawings of structures made of stone, brick and metal.

Did you know? Presumably, we owe the invention of the mangal to the Arabs. The Turkish word "mangal" comes from the Arabic "menkal", a roaster. It is curious that in Sanskrit "Mangala" - the name of the planet Mars and the name of the god associated with it.

Brazier from metal

Braziers made of metal - the most common flame structures. This grill can be easily made with your own hands, determining the size you need and purchasing all the necessary materials. For a 30 cm wide construction, 50 cm long and 15 cm deep and one meter high (with legs) you will need:

Sheet metal (for boxes) - thickness 2 mm;
Metal corner 25 (for legs and reinforcement) - thickness 3 mm;
Metal rods (for the shelf) - 4 pieces 50 cm long.

We offer you a step by step instructions for the manufacture of such barbecue with your own hands.

Preparing materials

1. Cut the sheet metal into the parts you need:

The bottom is 50x30 cm;
Two walls 30x15 cm;
Two walls 50x15 cm

2. Cut the corners:

4 legs 1 meter long;
Reinforcements for the bottom - three 30 cm each and two 50 cm each;
Wall reinforcements - two, 30 cm each and two 50 cm each.

3. If you had a solid metal bar - cut it into rods: 6 to 50 and 2 to 30 cm.

Weld the box

Form a box and fix the walls and the bottom of the future brazier with a welding machine.
Scorch the resulting structure at the seams inside and out.
Clean the outer seams with a grinder.

Weld legs

Connect the corners of the box with the legs and alternately weld the corners.
At a height of about 30 cm from the cut metal rod make struts between the legs around the perimeter and additional between them. Get a kind of shelf of rods.

We make reinforcement for the box

On the perimeter of the bottom of the box, weld the corners, 30 and 50 cm long, and one, 30 cm long, in the center of the box width.
Do the same on the outer perimeter of the box.

Weld handles

Fold two handles from the 50 cm long rods to be able to move the structure.
Weld the handles slightly below the reinforcements.

All that remains is to drill the hot holes in the walls of the box and cut through the grinder with the hollows for the skewers.

Important! On a brazier of this size, make no more than eight cuts for the skewer, otherwise they will interfere with each other when frying.

Brazier from brick

On the Internet resources devoted to the construction craft and home economics, you can also find a lot of drawings of stationary barbecues made of bricks.

You can also build a barn, a gazebo, a retaining wall on the plot from the brick.

A brick brazier made by your own hands can serve as a peculiar decoration of your personal plot.

We offer you an algorithm for building a classic brick roast construction:

First, select the place where the structure will be located. In the proposed version of the brazier will be located on the veranda of the house.
In order to position the structure optimally evenly with respect to the adjacent building, determine the plane in which you will begin to make the laying. Take the asbestos chimney pre-fixed on the clamps by the base axis. Beat a nail on the edge of the pipe and tie a string to it with a strap so that it touches the floor with one end. Perpendicular to it, put another rail vertically. By bringing it all into one plane, you will ensure that the brazier is correctly positioned relative to the pipe and walls.
Make a couple of rows of masonry according to the drawing.
Having reached a certain height and number of rows of masonry, make jumpers for the woodsman from the corners through the whole structure of the broiler.
Decorate the arch of a drovnik, carving out fragments from a brick that are necessary in shape and size.
Lay a brick overlapping drovnika.
Begin to lay out the subframe, forming decorative cornices.
Squeeze the bottom of the built-in nadrovnik with a refractory mixture or clay and lay the walls up to the height specified by the drawing.
After reaching the place where the overlap of the broiler itself should be formed, lay out the inner walls with a refractory brick, receding from the outer walls, and form a tooth (inclined back wall).
Make holes in the walls for the skewer.
Form the arch of the brazier.
Line up the back wall to the base of the pipe. The back of the pipe should be a bit on the brick.
Lay the front and side walls on the narrowing to the pipe, setting the direction with wooden slats.
Lay holes near the pipe.
Test the design: check the draft and smoke from the barbecue.
Install hangers and skewers. If desired, you can make the valve for the upper part of the structure.

Important! Lay the outer walls on the sand-cement mixture, and the inner - on refractory.
