I made one Rouge. It works well. Do not put too many wood chunks or chips and the heat build up is manageable.

update

Wal-Mart was really only good for the thermometer and pan to hold wood

I was able to find one hot plate at the grocery store

Home Dept and Lowe's had grills and pot bottoms, but not pot tops

will work on it tomorrow to see if i can complete the pieces

Something a little different. Home Depot sells an electric BBQ pit by Char Broil. It's round and blue and uses ceramic bricks and a coil. I had two of them over the years and those babies cooked the best chicken you could do. Not much for a steak but fowl was great on it. Bout two hundred.

I think 16". But can't recall. Buy the grill first and make sure it fits the inside rim of the ceramic pot.
