Fantastic build. Just watching this encourages me to build everything for my concessions trailer.

First metal working video I've seen that transitions into a cooking video! I'll be using this video when I weld up my own griddle, thanks for sharing your ideas!

I would like to thank you for this very talented build on a homemade gas grill it looks better than the ones you can buy out there now thanks for the motivation thanks for the knowledge this is what makes America great. Thank you mr. Andrew thank you

I love it,this is the video I was looking for. You Sir are a genius.

Great video. Just the information and motivation I needed to make one for the patio.

this griddle is great. the one i really wanna make. thanks for sharing this video!

Good job man!!! You have good metal fab skills and good patience as well.

Gyoza/pot stickers, I never thought to make them on a flat top. I like it.

Quality job. Much talent

So sweet. Nice Build!

really nice man great build i really like that you did amazing thumbs up forsure

Dude you are rocking the home build!.. Thanks for sharing...

Watching these videos gives me the idea. Instead of buying super expensive cook appliances I can build my own with sheet stainless and tubes. And one thing I've found seasons a steel pan or griddle is coffee beans. Roast some on it and you'll end up with a dynamite non-stick sear. I did it on my carbon steel wok and finally after trying so many times with peanut and canola the pan is now non-stick. Thanks!

Andrew W you are just super fantastic

Great job! Think it looks fine with pipes showing.

Awesome video man.

damn solid biuld. impressive as hell!

I love how the music changes

Man this is beautiful, I have most of the stainless steel materials, I will have to try this out!!

Good job!

Well done

Muy buen trabajo felicidades 👍

Nice job....

Cool nice work

Fantastic...I like it...

nice work.. thanks ..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I’m totally building one of these

I enjoyed watching this video. If there is any room for improvement, I suggest adding main valve before the three valves, so the three can be open first, then the electronic ignition is used only once to light up the 3 burners. without sacrificing the individual control of each burner.

So cool!!

Dude... I need you to make me a custom griddle like that!!! Awesome! Love that crust on the burgers! OMG!!! #Drooling

excellent!!

Nice job

Nice one!

Nice sear on the burgers. Well done build wish you’d build one for me.

Love it

Very nice project my friend, you did awsome job!!! Thank you for sharing your ideas, ooh very good explained and video. I'll be trying these burners on a grill... Big thank you!! From Washington state...

Awesome!!

Man I like that... Something I would buy!!! JD

Sweet!

Nice jobbbb

Great video,thank you for it. How much did it cost for all the materials needed for the build

Awesome work! May I ask what your decision proces is on determining tapping versus bolting? Thanks in advance, thanks for sharing.

I would like to see you make a indoor propane heater that had a flue pipe to keep out ccarbon monoxide .build from an LP tank that can be used in a room or RV.

this is bad ass

Nice one

Amazing, and I like how you walked us through everything you where doing If you don't mind me asking , how much did that cost to build?

Amazing work that you do the very thorough I was curious as to roughly how much one of those cost you to build cuz I was in the market in the spring for one for out at my lake house I am now a subscriber thank you

awesome

Bom proof BBQ, great job

Your future is bright!!!

I like it

I like your video very interesting

Nice 👍

Very nicely done. Now get yourself a metal bending brake and you can bend your metal around the corners instead of having to weld flat sections to form the corners. Nice job.

Fantastic job! I wish I had access to a steel yard with stainless steel. Pretty expensive buying it on the internet.

Nice grill good job,did a great job explaining the process

Awesome project! You're going to make me build one of these and a wok station too. Been thinking about doing it but your videos might have just pushed me over the edge lol. Quick question about leveling the grill. Your's looks really level judging by the way the egg spread on the grill. Doesn't look like you have any issues with pooling of the oil either. Did you make sure it sat level before you started cooking or did you just set it up and run it? Also what are you using to catch the oil when it drips from the trough? You're damn good at building these. I'd highly recommend getting yourself a TIG welder. DC only TIGs aren't that expensive and it will really take these builds to the next level. Thanks for the videos

perfect.

Built for your generation to come. Great video done right. What was the cost of materials? BTW. You inspired me to build 1. I will get the plate bent for the edges and put a bottom under the burners so to capture some reflective heat.

I'd like to see you build a grill, lid, drip catch, and burner covers. Then you'd have a nice BBQ as well.

Thanks for sharing your awesome project. Did you have any warping issue with your griddle from the heat?

thumbs up, skimmed through this .. will go back for reference. nice work... inspiring..

Love your design, just a question Do your burners give the same distribution of heat. Cos my burner gives more heat at the end side and very little heat at the inlet side. How can I improve it so that the heat of the burner is the same for the length of the burner. Many thanks

Excelent!!! Thank you from México amigo... Like and suscribe👍👍

Great job, thats my next project. Hope you can help if i need some help or have questions

Sir thank you for your both video ,very useful ,my question which type of welding can use Mig welding or Tig welding ,which brand and size of welding it's suitable to do home work job even for car ,,thank you

what he is using is a mig/gas welder probably mig/aron or mig/carbon dioxide. This is doable at home but tanks are hard to move. There is another kind of mig welding called mig flux core welding which does not need gas. This is your better option. This option does not require tanks and flux core welders are cheap to purchase and can be bought at home depot. Lowes. or even harbor freight

Great work Drew..On the middle burner, I see you have holes on the reducer and not on the others, Why?

@SniperS0007

5 жыл бұрын

Andrew Kiggundu I watched his burner making video before this, he drilled those on the reducer to attempt better airflow (oxygen induction) during testing stages and it didn't seem to further improve anything so I think he just decided to not drill the others, from what I gathered in that previous video. He went on to explain different sizes holes and propane ratios etc

man you inspire me good job

Nice job! If you build another one or anybody replicating this, you might let the sides of the griddle hang over the surface by about 1/4 inch and then weld everything together from the bottom.

Great

I have been researching building one of these similar. I like yours and have all the tools necessary to make but my question is why use mild or cold steel for the cooktop instead of Stainless steel? Cost? does it matter?

Cool

Well done. Do you get any warping of the griddle surface?

Awesome ! Like the music to.

Please what is the tickness of the actual grilled steel and is it non stick

Great build!! It's been a while, but did you have any issues with warping of the metal? Did you reinforced the base plate?

👌!

I ha ea question. I ha e never messed with changing anything over to lp. I have a wolf 48" griddle. They won't sell me a conversion kit for it to make it lp fr natural gas. To me I don't see why I can't just remove the gas valve and I stall something like this. I am not sure how to figure out propane valve size . I don't know about adding more burners in a row without a certain valve type. Any help would be appreciated I would like to not blow anything up which is why I ha ENT just guessed at it..

how much just for steel arms and plate

Hello I hope you are well just a question is what is the same principle for city gas sorry for my english I am a francophone I have translation with google thanks friends

I'm sorry the drill bit what size is

والله رووووووعة

why does the reducer on the middle burner have all the holes drilled around it?

@jamescole6846

4 жыл бұрын

If you watch his other video on making the burner he was experimenting trying to get the flame to burn blue. Drilling the holes in the reducer to let more air in had little effect. Changing the size of the hole in the gas tube nipple to 1.2mm I believe was the trick. He just left it that way probably because he did not have another one. He did say that depending on the size and length of the tube and the way you cut the slits that 1.2mm may or may not work for your application you will just have to experiment with several. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc ... BTW Yes I am building one of these.

What kind of mig wire are you using to weld that?

@matthewyoung4877

It looked like ER70S which is just regular wire for welding mild steel. It can be welded on stainless just fine but the weld will rust just like mild steel would.

very nicely done. But one would have to have an extensive knowledge of welding and machining to build it. Those tools are not I dare say in the standard home owners inventory.

The tools he used to builds this are very affordable. The "standard home owner" now days might get lucky and have a hammer and a couple screw drivers. However the typical DIY Guy or Gal more than likely has all the tools he used on this project. The welder might be the only exception. However a super affordable welders on the market that would make quick work of this project.

I would say at least a few hundred bucks. But you can find scrap pieces for cheap since its a small build. Angle Bars for legs and frame maybe $30 Wheels- $20 for set of 4 Stainless Sheet - Maybe $100-$200 1/4" Plate 36x30 - Maybe $60 -80 Orifice, pipes and burners maybe $50 - $75
