With the 10th grade students’ research presentations on the horizon, we celebrate the arrival of the base platform for the oven. It was delivered yesterday ahead of schedule and purdier than I ever imagined. I delivered a basic sketch of our requirments to Kim Sutton of Red Wolf, LLC and what I got in return was this fabulous gem…
This thing is the definition of beefy. All size requirements met with the stunning accuracy I would expect, but the craftsmanship and attention to detail is above and beyond what most companies would deliver.
Also, Ricky’s (he welded it up for us) design for mounting the casters is super sweet. Once the sides of this thing are skirted with tiles the casters will essentialy disappear. Perrrrrrfect.
Three inch angle iron makes up the legs and frame with square tube and two inch channel for the top and bottom braces respectively. The casters are mounted on sections of four inch channel, cut to fit flush into the corners. And it’s predrilled for mounting our hardibacker to boot. Bad to the bone.
We begin physical construction next week. But before then, look for the research presentations to be linked here after tomorrow.
