Not fancy, not high tech. I was about to throw this old barbecue away several years ago, and got to thinking I should be able to use the rolling stand for it somehow. Turns out I needed a stand for my mitre saw, so it became the recipient. Blind luck that I only needed to bolt some 3/4...

I built this last winter from scraps and junk. Made it so I have lots of surfaces on all sides so as to use a c clamp to attach it to a table top. The big handle is sort of a lark, as a friend that is in the gaming business gave it to me. It is off a one armed bandit slot machine. The...
