Home made spits.....
« on: May 21, 2012, 05:52:16 PM »
Hey all,,

put up some pics of your spit that you've perhaps made....as I supply products to the road tanker industry I thought this seemed fitting to try and duplicate...I still have another set of cast wheels to fit, and put a couple of hose trays down either side, and fill with SS braided hoses.

Just need to think if, it should be painted and if so, Mobil, BP, Shell......

I have made this over the past few months...was a great project to finish so that I only have one other thing to build other than my camper trailer.....

Cheer

Lifox and cootes are not fuel co's they just cart it!
Paint it up with some old classics as per (thats if I get the attachments right).
Carted Ampol fuel (on a B&L from Shell) out of Wyndham in early 70's,relief tanker driver in Tom Price during the 80' for shell.
cheers

I built a baby one. It is only 600mm long, but can fit a few chooks in it and I have fed 20 out of it once. Does a great roast pork too.









I tried roasting coffee beans in it once, but it didn't work real well. If you didn't know, coffee beans are high in oil, ....... oil, naked flame.... it was spectacular.
