So I have all the tools to do this but have never done it before. I promised the wife I'd make this BBQ island outside under the pavilion (even though she'll never cook on the damn thing) and I'm officially tired of hearing her complaints............I've researched different material types. From galvanized steel studs, wood frame, block frame, square 1X1 tubing or 1.5X1.5 angle in either steel or aluminum.
I'm leaning towards aluminum because I really want a spool mate for my Miller 210 mig machine and with aluminum I dont have to worry about rust.
Basics are frame, backer board & stone veneer. Am I missing anything?
I already have a new 36' propane BBQ and a side burner. I need to source some stainless cabinetry and a sink to go in the corner.
The pavilion is 20X16 feet. I plan to run the BBQ and XL green egg on the far side with a island length of about 10-12 feet to surround the left corner and the middle left. I have two 20A 110 circuits available for power with a sink in the left corner (closest in the picture) and 6-8 foot bar top on the Left side (closest in the picture). This it will drop down with a 6 foot island to complete the J portion.
Not looking to add a fridge out there. A couple of cabinets and 2 or 3 triple drawers. Maybe one of these counter top drop in ice chest.
Any sage advice from the RDP brain trust?
Thanks in advance!
Sort of what I'm looking at building.
