This video illustrates how I built my BBQ cart for my 22 1/2 inch Weber Kettle grill. The frame is simple; using 2x4 standard pine lumber, screws and glue. From the creation of the basic frame, the bottom shelf (floor) was installed using 1x4 x 24" lumber. The top of the cart (the actual work area) was made using 2x6 x 32" standard pine lumber. You'll notice that there is one 2x4 board on the top surface near the grill. My original plan was to use 2x6 lumber lengthwise on the top and not crosswise as demonstrated. My change caused a 2 inch shortage to the top thus, the 2x4 was used to correct the issue. If you do not like this configuration, simply increase the length the cart by 2 inches or shorten it by 3 and 1/2 inches. It is extremely important that from the very beginning, you keep all joints square. This will avoid issues and headaches later in the project.
Also, in the video you'll see I used a "close nipple" for the handle. After I installed it, I realized that the "close nipple" configured the handle much too close to the cart frame causing pain to the knuckles! I switched that out to a 2 1/2 inch nipple. Much better!!!

-A second video will be published, illustrating how I stained the cart and what products were decided upon and used. I anticipate the final video to be released sometime between now and early June 2020. I'm a front line worker with deceased individuals. I have been working long and unpredictable hours. Please be patient. I have a great idea for the table top finish AND I added casters to the front.

I hope this video helped you if you’re attempting a similar project. This was an easy project and a lot of fun to build as well. Feel free to leave questions and/or comments below. I will respond to them as quickly as I can.
-It should be understood that I AM NOT A CARPENTER AND DO NOT CLAIM TO BE ONE. I'm sure there are points in the video that could have been done better or more efficiently by a professional.
