Post Trailer hitch grill
In a month or so im going to make a grill using a little weber grill and pvc. I got this idea from another user who did it. My plan is something like this:



But then my bumper/hitch isnt like that, it needs to be round to fit on the ball.

PVC weakens around 200*F. You may want to use a different material if it's going to attach to a heat source (grill).

Awesome idea..as mentioned above..just make sure it's built correctly... hate to see a grill full of brats and burgers fall on the ground.
