  Step 1

  First we built a wooden frame with a base attached at the bottom which we painted a medium grey.

  2 - 350 x 70 x 20mm Planks {front and back}
  2 - 250 x 70 x 20mm Planks {sides}
  1 - 350 x 290mm Plank/other {for the base}

• 

  Step 2

  The glass we had cut at a local glass supplier in the following sizes:

  2 - 300 x 200 x 3mm {front and back}
  2 - 250 x 200 x 3mm {sides}

  We used clear Marine Silicone as an adhesive and built a rectangular glass "box" which fitted nicely into the wooden frame we have built

• 

  Step 3

  All we had was a small piece of steel mesh {NOTE: always make double sure you have enough for a project and do not assume - that's more a reminder to myself!}

  So, here we cut and shaped the steel mesh to fit inside the wooden box.

• 

  Step 4

  Cut a round hole, big enough for a tin can to fit through - insert the can securely.

• 

  Step 5

  Place inside the wooden box {see ours is a tad too small - but not a problem}.

• 

  Step 6

  We simply filled the open sides with stones until it was all packed tight.

• 

  Step 7

  Filled up with stones to the same height as the can and add Bio-fuel.

  Light your fire, sit back and enjoy!

  Step 8

  Final - Used on the Rachael Ray Show as a slide feature

I like this idea. What purpose does the mesh serve?
