And a Sat dish.
I could use the stainless steel, I want to build a Arctic entry way and line it so I can park my BBQ gril inside it in the winter...**** propane won't flow at 50 below. Be nice to have a flameproof entry way with a overhead exhaust an to be able to grill in comfort all winter...

thats to bad, i just chuked a huge fryer overhead 7 vent system from my store. i have a front clip left over from doing my 68 chicken i saw in that movie "the fast and the furious" they had a bbq made outa a fire chicken front end sure would like to see a good pic of that, would also be cool to make a couch outa that clip too, just have it look like a decorative piece untill you "pop" the hood and plant your butt and have a cold one.

You could always wrap some heat tape around the tank and plug it in, or use a small electric heating pad like I do. Along the same line as a nitrous bottle blanket.

The movie was actually the "Gone In 60 Seconds" remake. F&F would never have something that cool in it.

I too reclaimed "my" (parents) garage this week (no garage at my place ). Went over to work on the truck and couldn't even get the nose of the truck in the door and decided it was time to take care of that mess. Filled their 4'x4'x8' dumpster in under an hour and that was only one garage bay out of three. Still need to get the extra Charger parts sold. Kill two birds, make enough room to actually work in there and get some money to spend on the car.

Yea I have a heat pad on mine too. It really helps for a hotter flame in mild temps down to around 20 below after that the heat dissipates so fast it takes a hour to do a burger, so I want to build a insulated grill/smoke house that way you don't have to have on arctic wear to cook a steak.
The house I bought had a attached garage and I turned it into a living room/den an utility room so now I need to build another garage.

I think that you wouldn't have had any problems at all if you had just not went out to smoke a cigarette.
