Looks amazing. Any concerns with such a heavy countertop resting on the metal studs? That's my concern. My local stores only offer 25 gauge metal studs and I worry about the weight of a concrete countertop resting on top.

No concerns on this build. The studs put together in that configuration is very strong. If you are concerned, possible add more vertical studs?

Is there any reason why you didn't use metal tracks? is it okay to use teflon tape in gas fittings where you are working at? Tx

Metal tracks...they didn't have the proper gauge track at my local HD. So just went with using the normal studs throughout. Regarding the tape, what I used is the proper tape designed for gas connections, not the normal Teflon.

Dam that looks great! When using Sketch-up, does it recommend the dimensions for the different cabinets and cut outs?

@@neiljackson8313 thank you. SketchUp does not. But you can get that from the respective data sheets and then putting that into sketch up will help you with the overall design.

@@thomaschurch8383 not specifically. However there is a decent size hike where the gas comes out to the grill. There is also about a one inch gap all around the structure on the bottom.

Amazing! Would you use 2x4 if you were to build it away from the house?

4 ай бұрын
I think building it with 2x4 would be just fine and much easier. However, I would do it with metal studs, even if it was a little further from the house to be on the safe side.

@@kathydallemolle276 I coated the cement board with that blue waterproof membrane. There is a stainless steel trim that came with the grill that is placed there. It's tight but probably not water tight.

This took a bit longer as the overall structure is large. I would say maybe 5-10 days for me.

The dimensions will probably be different for you given your equipment and available space ( I would have made mine longer to add in a griddle if I had the space). However the frame for me was 101.5" x 32.5" and 33" tall.

SketchUp is what I always use. It's fairly powerful and there is a free desktop version available.
