I’ve seen plenty of BBQ repurposed from old rims, but barrels can be perfect as the wheel for a BBQ. This one is the best proof of that!

Well ya need 3 steel car rims weld 2 together cut a hole in the 2 welded together. Cut the third rim in half and cut the center piece out and weld it to the top rim. Cut a piece of 3/16 plate to make your top along with a piece of 2 inch steel pipe about 2 feet long for your fake stack and weld to the top of the plate at a center line and about an 1 1/2 from the back edge of plate and centered on the center line. Go buy a grill grate that fits your rim for your cook grate. There thats how its done for those asking how to build this RIM bbq cause this sure ain’t made from a barrel and someone really should change the name of the post.
No barrel was not injured or killed in the making of this product…

This is really cool. Liked the idea. I’m certified in B pressure pipe welding from Mississauga’s Weldtech Training centre. I have tried out welding creative new Gen Gates and also made a curio from welding together old coins . But I have never tried anything like this before. Way to go!
