This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the Straw badge in Metalworking.

Fire is a useful tool.  In some cases it works better when it can breathe.  Let's build a grate for a firepit or firebox!

 
 

Here's a gentleman building one for a fire pit:


Minimum requirements:
  - Weld up a grate to hold burning wood
  - For the fire box of a wood burning contraption or a fire pit
  - Andirons count for this as well
  - At least 2 inches of clearance underneath for air flow

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - The project underway
  - The completed project
 
We find this kind of rampant individuality very disturbing. But not this tiny ad:
