We have a two 200 Gallon fuel oil tank that I am going to attempt to make into an arch. We have a 2x3 continuous pan with an 18 x 18 in pre-warmer pan. We have a few questions.
1. Has anybody ever seen 2 oil drums on placed on the sides attached so that the fire can be bigger in the bottom drum and the pans set into the top one? What about putting the 1 drum on its side?
2. Can you use patio brick paver blocks as fire block?
3. How far above the flame do you want the bottom of the pan to set?
4. Does anybody have plans for a home made arch or do you have to custom make them? How thick of sheet metal do you want to use as a minimum?
This is our first year at this so pretty green.
Thanks for all the help.
