Taking your plan and making something out of it





The plan



From idea, to inspiration, now for the plan. This is only part of the plan mind you but nonetheless this is a D.I.Y. project first and foremost.

Some inspiration behind the idea






With any legit concept you have to have some inspiration for what it is that you are doing. In this case the inspiration comes from the act of grilling with your family and friends while doing what you love to do.

The begining of an idea


As with any other project, concept, or whatever it is that comes to reality one has to have an idea. This idea came about back in 2007 and here we are in 2011. What took so long? Alot of self doubt? The lack of commitment or dedication? Laziness? All of the above? Whatever the case something lit a fire under my ass and the ball got rolling.
