Inox legs and rack I would assume?
This will be no case, friend of mine presented to me some parts of old Singer. I think if I manage to attach those parts to cylinder, than it would be interesting solution (actually like on one of the pictures I took from the internet). Used angle-grinder to cut off the valve.

If you can incorporate the tread plate, wheel and drive rods, that would make a brilliant rotational spit! Ideal for suckling pig :-bighappy

I think for pig rotation some kind of automatic rotator could be made. But for tread plate I have another idea: Airflow is advisable to help to start fire, so tread plate can spin air-blower which will provide air inside the chamber. Of course this air-blower will only work when you use leg-power :-rofl2. Should be fun!

While sipping a beer and tapping away to your favourite music, you will not even notice you are working!:)

Made another cuts to the cylinder, and also ordered from PRC round thermometer. I hope I will manage to grill something this summer :rolleyes: on this grill. There will be places for 7 skewers inside. Perhaps will do some lattice as well for stakes. Should also think about bigger wheels for the legs of the grill, some handles and other necessary things.

I have found (in the garage :rolleyes: ) motor with air-turbine. I think I can use this turbine to pump air into the cylinder. If I fix it like on the picture and make axis for the belt, then it should pump air along red arrows, of course only when pedal is touched. ;)
