I started by cutting the 18mm melamine into the rough shape

After deciding on the thickness of the top I cut some lengths to form the part where the BBQ will slot into, glued and screwed into place making sure it's as square as possible, then after fitting the back piece into place I had some very nice flexible plastic which bent round the make the curve at the front (hopefully it's strong enough once the concrete has been poured)

I placed the BBQ on upside down just to check the measurements were correct, and everything seem ok at this point.

I then cut some reinforcing mesh which will go into the concrete and hopefully make it a bit stronger.

I'm going to let the glue dry overnight and get the concrete poured In the morning.
Wish me luck!

Here's some photos of it in the mold
And here it is out
Pretty happy with how it's come out, just waiting on some polishing pads to arrive before I put in place.
Nearly BBQ time!

Now what you need to do is stick a rear subframe on, wheels and tow it to mini shows!

Very nice build, and am loving the concrete top ! very fasionable nowadays,
I think i'd be too scared to use it, wouldnt want the paint getting burnt or damaged

Maybe your next project could be a pizza oven out of the print end 😁
