I wanted to install a grill into this compressor that I gutted last
week. I would prefer, if possible, to buy somehting decent and well
designed instead of coming up with my own design. So, would anyone who
has done something similar, be able to recommend a good source?

i


Propane or charcoal for fuel?


Charcoal


Mosts guys here in the oil patch and community..use a piece of thick
expanded metal for the grill. Works just fine, holds up VERY well and
can be had cheaply.

Propane people...tend to use Stainless steel more.

stainless steel grills can be easily made with a tig welder and bar
stock. Ive made quite a number of them for friends over the years as I
have a literal ****load of stainless round stock in 12' lengths from a
shop that closed down 10 yrs ago.

Its very very easy to do. Simply weld/bend a frame..then tig in your
grill.
