Well Yogi is currently in the backyard testing out the 'Bush Pig' to burn off the paint etc. before getting a coat of pot belly black, all is working well  :cup:

Once again Yogi and BugOne has done a great job.

Ahh one of the best feelings there is, the sense of satisfaction and achievement of using something that you built yourself.

It lives ........



All I have to do now is seal the pot belly black paint and finish off the flue ........ worked a treat once you get some coals in the bottom throw in a log or two and sit back, close the door and slow burn them for a couple of hours worth of heat ;D

Ok so the PIG had a coat of pot belly back put on and was fired once again a few weeks ago but there seems to be some residue still left on the metal. So the old girl has been out in the yard seasoning ..... and will be recoated and fired again shortly. The Flue is also in the process of being made ....... pic's to follow.

Yogi,
I got the highest temp 700deg I think exhaust paint from stooper cheap worked good so far but I had used mine for 18 months before I painted it so what ever was on the outside was no more. I also wire wheeled the whole thing back to clean metal before spraying.
