DIY gyroscopic grill is easy to use, fun to watch and will make your neighbors jealous
With the official start of summer only a week away, let’s celebrate the new season by donning our favorite apron and firing up the grill. Maybe you’ll spend your Saturday scrubbing and inspecting your vintage grill, polishing the stainless steel until it sparkles. Maybe you’ll be lured into purchasing a new, more powerful grill by unbelievable Father’s Day deals at your local big-box hardware store. Or maybe you’ll take the maker approach and build your own unique grill. If you’re looking for a grill that will cook meat evenly and be the envy of the entire neighborhood, consider designing a gyroscope grill that locks your food in place and turns it automatically. In a recent video, YouTuber Rock & Fix demonstrates how to construct a gyroscopic grill.
