Costa Rican Grill

A good friend of mine recently returned from serving a mission in Costa Rica and told me about how a lot of Costa Ricans will take an old car rim and use it as a fire-pit/grill. I figured hey what the heck and gave it a try. I simply found a car rim and bought a round grill top and BAMM! New Grill!!!



 I gave mine a bit of an upgrade by welding feet on the bottom as well as welding a couple small pieces of re-bar over the larger hole in the middle so that the charcoal wouldn't fall through.

  1. That’s such a creative DIY idea! Turning an old rim into a grill shows just how versatile these pieces of metal can be. Just like in that project—where the rim is repurposed and needs to be in decent shape—real car rims also benefit a lot from proper care. If the rim you repurpose (or your car’s rim) ever gets bent, scratched, or damaged, professional wheel repair can bring it back to top condition, making both your drive and DIY projects look sharp.
