Thank you. I use it all the time and it has held up well. I did a refresh on it about a year ago and repainted it and put 4 large casters on it instead of just two wheels and now it rolls around so easy and the weight of it isn't a factor anymore. I also may add a small "wing" to the left of the grill one day as I'm still always looking for a place to put the lid and grates when lighting it but it's not that big of a deal so I haven't done that part yet. Anyway thanks for checking out the video. The expanded metal top doesn't get hot at all. Some people have asked about that. JD
Still working great. I had to repaint it and I removed the wheels and welded on 4 casters to make it roll. It's heavy and the casters work so much better to move this thing around. One of my most used things I've built. JD
Juan Pablo Thummler Thank you Juan! I will tell you I use it all the time and it’s probably one of the best things I’ve ever built. Thank you for the feedback.
Love it! I will copy your design! Once I finish, I will upload it here. So great that it so versatile and every surface is ready for magnetic accessories.
Jose thank you and good luck with the project, it is one of my most used things I have ever made and everyone loves it that sees it. I tell you if I ever built another one, I probably would have done two things different. First, I wouldn't have used the wheels as I've never moved it from its' place on the deck. Second, I would have used much thinner steel to construct it, it's a bit on the heavy side. Wouldn't change anything else though and I'm still using the same magnets I originally purchased when it was built. Thanks for the feedback and look forward to seeing your completed project. JD
Jose Rodriguez Jose there are two other videos on my channel that walk you through the construction of the grill and chill. I’m pretty sure I put the dimensions in those videos. If I knew them off the top of my head I would just tell you but check out those two videos may give you some insight on some dos and donts. Let me know if these help. JD.
I still love mine and use it all the time. I did a "refresh" on it about a year ago and took those wheels off and welded on 4 casters which totally makes it so much easier to move around. Fresh coat of paint and it's good to go for more years to come! One of the best and most used items I've made. JD
So much better than a wood build for a grill. Looks great and all the ideas will definitely help me put mine together. All the magnetic attachments super helpful as well. Can you throw out the dimensions that worked for you? maybe I'll see that in part 2. Very cool build man!!!
Man, you build a grill as good as you build a Jeep. I guess after spending hours working on the Jeep a little quality time grillin and a few beers are well deserved. Really neat.
Fantastic set-up, looks so awesome, i really like the idea with using magnets, very cool I would like to see how you attached the Weber kettle to the table
Thanks!!! The kettle grill just sits in the circle I cut out. If you go to my channel I have 3 videos total of the construction of the table. It will show you the cut out etc. Thanks for the comment.
JD offline, that is so cool. You really did an excellent job. I can't imagine how much time and effort went into that project. If I had the money I would have you build one for me!!! You do have the best project builds on TH-cam. Take care buddy and keep up the good work. TH-cam needs more down to earth guys like you.
I wouldn't see why not, they have held up well. The hooks were cheaper so they have a little surface rust on them several years later but the paper towel holder looks new still. JD
It's great, just repainted it, took off the wheels it had and added 4 casters for easier mobility. One of my most used projects consistently over the years! JD
Thank you, it has held up well and I just recently did a refresh on it by repainting it and welding on 4 wheels that all spin and lock making it much easier to move around (it's heavy!!). One of the most used items I have made. Love it. JD
I'm looking to purchase a Big Green Egg and I am looking to get a table built for it. Your table made me think of how I can have one built. It looks like you thought of everything on your table.
Steve Guzman I really tried to. Years of experience without the table and lots of research looking at what other features were on tables you could buy.
Really like this cart. Well designed and constructed. Ever thought about putting wood, cutting board or some other type of cutting surface on the top between the kettle and the cooler? May help with food prep. Either way I'd love to have one of these for my Weber Kettle Grill. I don't have a welder so I'll probably build mine with wood. But I really like some of your ideas, especially the hook for the lid, which I may include in my cart. Again, great job on the cart.
Mark Brown Hey Mark thanks for the great feedback. Most useful item I’ve probably ever built. I like the cutting board idea. Let us know how yours turns out.
I don't have them handy but if you go to my channel there are two other videos on the construction of the grill cart and I'm sure I share the dimensions in those videos. JD
Hey. I want plans. I think someplace to store your tools dry and charcoal as well as fluids but I'm thinking dimond plate and ceder wood. A nice finnish would be a custom cover for storage like a cheap tarp from harbor freight durring storms and winter.
Never had or made any plans as I kinda custom made it as I went. There are three total videos and the first two are pretty detailed on the build. I bought a generic cover from amazon to throw over it when not in use so I didn't really need a dry storage area (unless you don't put the cover on and it rains!!). A tarp would work well also I'm sure. JD
Thank you for that feedback. The cart has held up well and I use it all the time to be honest. Probably one of the most useful things I have built. Back then, I probably didn't do a good job of letting people know this was a series but the two links below are two additional videos that walk you through the construction step by step. Appreciate the feedback again. JD th-cam.com/video/NbsLYoaLYnU/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/yrWeY_vAgKQ/w-d-xo.html
cindy schultz Thanks Cindy! Best thing I’ve ever made. It gets a lot of use at my house and has held up well. Looking back really no need for the wheels for my use. I’ve never moved it. Thanks for the comment.
Amazing job bro! I’m super impressed. Would you consider making one for sale? If so, what would you charge for it? I don’t know how to weld, but this is one project worth learning to weld for. It’s a work of beauty!
Thank you Robert!! Never really thought about selling one to be honest and something of this size would have to be local pick up only. Thanks for the comment!
Hey Delano. Thank you for that feedback. I've had quite a few people ask about this and I'm just not in a position to make these and sell them, just takes too much time to make them. I'm glad you like the design, maybe someone local to you could build you one (check local small welding shops). Thanks again for the feedback and comment. JD
I don't remember the exact dimension, I think it was 22" or whatever the width is of the inside grill grate. It worked perfectly. Still use this thing all the time. One of the best and most used projects I have made. JD
How did the paint hold out by the kettle heat-wise? I am restoring an ss performer and would like a paint that doesn't attract fingerprints as the high heat does. By the way that is an awesome kettle cart and a nice design.
Other than weathering from being outside the paint has held up great. The expanded metal works well and does not get hot and I've had no issues with the paint even the "ring" of metal I put around where the grill contacts the grill cart has held up well. I did put a lot of coats of both primer and black paint on when I painted it. Thanks for the shout out, I will tell you this is probably one of the best things I've ever made. It gets a lot of use and you have plenty of room to cook with it. So far, I haven't moved it around at all so if I was to do it again, I probably wouldn't have added the wheels. But, nice to know they are there in case I want to move it. Thanks for the questions/comments.
I ended up buying a generic name brand cover from amazon with dimensions big enough to fit this thing. It worked well for a period of time but didn't hold up well to be honest. JD
Thank you! I thought about having it powder coated but for ease of touch ups and cost I decided to spray it. It’s held up well so far!! Thanks for the comment.
I have used this grill cart extensively...probably one of the most used things I have ever made. In all the times I have used it, I have never noticed any heat transfer to the actual table. Thanks for the question!
@@dmaffeo1 Haha I wish! Stainless or aluminum is really the way to go but this one is holding up good so far. Will have to hit it with some new spray paint every 3-5 years most likely just to touch it up. Good luck with your choice! Steel will certainly last longer than wood!!
Hey Jack. Didn't really have any plans that I followed just kind of fabricated as I went. If you check out part 1 of the video series, I go through the materials I used. Here's the link to the first video. th-cam.com/video/NbsLYoaLYnU/w-d-xo.html. If you need more info after checking out this video please let me know and I'll be happy to help. Definitely one of the best projects I've ever made. I use it all the time!
Thanks Tom! I've gotten so much good feedback on this thing and after using it for several months now it is the most functional table I have probably ever built! Thanks again for the comment.
I also have a 26.75 Weber and the legs have just giving up on me while grilling! Well it's time to give my grill a better platform but I think I'm going to go with wood but with a touch of your(JD Offline) ideas will do the trick seems like and keep up with the great videos and keep on grilling!
Pork Chop 76 Hey pork chop. I love that name. I’ve had a lot of people ask me that and I’ve always respectfully declined. I’m glad you like it. Just got done eating a steak from the grill cart. Probably one of the most used items that I’ve ever made. Thanks for the comment. JD.
@@JDOffline i would estimate somewhere between $200-400 or so. I don't know your material and labor costs are. But I think adding the YETI, greatly adds value and your customer base. YETI customers have a bit more income. Also, I would sell the whole unit with the grill, and maybe a cooler - all in one. The big problem will be the shipping. You might need to consider a unit where you can put the base, top, and legs together in a flat pack box
Interesting ideas! If I remember correctly, I thought I had about $300 just in materials and it was a good bit of work to put together. I think I could get that cost down some but not sure enough to make it reasonable. Thanks for the comments and I'll certainly think on this.
@@rodomg3505 Thanks! I can tell you if I ever built another one for myself, I would have left off the wheels as I've literally never moved it. I also probably would have used some thinner gauge steel to keep the weight down but other than that, no regrets!! Appreciate the feedback. JD
Hard to say with how prices are now. The expanded metal is expensive for sure and it took a lot of spray paint to paint it. I build this years ago before all the prices went crazy. JD
Love this cart. Best I have seen on youtube or anywhere. Great job.
I see so many guides online for wooden grill carts, which feels a little dangerous for use with a grill. Your version is awesome!
