Barry, I've looked at many of the kits - but at $4000+ just can't do it. A decent one around $2000 might tip me over... but I am not sure how well it will be made at that price... I may just have to bite the bullet and buy some materials and dedicate a few weeks and hard work. It is a toss up between that and an asado / parrilla.
On another note, the steel plate has bit me - ordered one and will give it a try. Will post results and pictures as soon as it arrives.
Cheers,
David
