Ihave a situation where I need to put an outdoor gas barbecue grill near a wood fence. I know it should be a couple of feet away during use, but in this situation it will be a few inches away, or at least far enough away to open the grill cover. The grill will be semi-permanently attached so it cannot be moved away from the fence during use. The fence is not attached to a building.

I'm a bit baffled by your question. For the last 20 years, I have had my gas grill on the deck, usually as close to the house as I can put it and still open the top (keeps in under the eaves on a rainy day). Unless your grill is a bizarre design, there won't be enough heat around the sides to cause any damage to a fence.


Like they say, you probably don't need anything, but if you want something then cement board would certainly be sufficient. Just try to keep any fasteners (that could conduct heat through) out of the "hot spot" area. I doubt that you need a spacer.


Simply dampen your fence before lighting your grill. A fine spray from the garden hose will do it or use a weed/deck sprayer (a clean new one please). The hose or sprayer can double as an extinguisher. That will be all the precaution you need.


Another thought, particularly if the fence is painted white, would be to paint on a good coat of slaked lime. Basically whitewash. Resistant to radiant heat and easily touched up it is also cheap. Might need to slap on another coat at the start of each grill season but this is pretty short work. Lime in a bucket. Add water and stir. Apply with a rough brush.


I agree with you, as far as my old gas grill goes. I've had it for 20 years and and it served me well. I just upgraded to a bigger and supposedly better grill. The new one operates differently and a blast of heat comes out the back of the grill. The back of the grill is more open than I expected, and time will tell if I like it.


Anyway, there is no way that I can put it next to a wood fence, and the grill may need to be at least a foot away from the fence. The heat out of the back is intense. I am considering using a sheet of aluminum or perhaps stainless as a heat shield, spaced away from the fence to allow good airflow behind the heat shield.


Oh, contrar! You haven't met my wife. I added a small deck to the back a few years ago, I come home the next day, she's cookin' steaks on the grill, flames comin' out behind the lid, and the railing's on fire! She didn't even know it 'til I asked "what are we havin' tonight, HouseBurgers? !!! After that, I made a custom 'heatshield', like 4lorn said. Her 'cooking' style explains to me why red meat is called 'Rare'.


Heat shields for this type of application are not rocket science -- we're not talking about the space shuttle here. The plan is to be safe and that's why I am asking for advice on good ways to beat the heat.


Yeah TenPenny, I was surprised to feel the heat coming out the back of this grill. Apparently it's a design "feature" but I wish they would have made the top tight. It's a pain in the butt, so I ordered some sheet stainless from and I will mount it with an air gap behind the sheet.


In my teenage years, I had a friend that enjoyed woodworking too and his family had a small workspace in their basement filled with woodworking tools. Together, we made all kinds of things, but nothing on a lathe.


Woodworking has always been a passion of mine, but nothing compares to turning wood bowls on a lathe. I can tell you now, after creating countless bowls, that no other woodworking project(s) come close to the satisfaction of taking a beautifully turned wood bowl off the lathe and rubbing the freshly exposed smooth grain.


The turning group is comprised of beginners, masters, and everyone in between, some turning, many congregating and socializing. Danny Hoffman, the person who hosts this motley crew at his well-appointed shop, is a generous sharing soul who simply wants to share woodturning with all who are interested. He is also my main woodturning mentor, check out this article I wrote all about him.


The main reason for sharing this information is to help you start turning bowls too and excel to become a bowl-turning master. Understanding the particulars of any given issue during the bowl-making process and building confidence is critical to mastering bowl-making.


I was blessed to have experienced minds all around me so my negative turning experiences were minimal and plenty of assistance was available to me. I want to provide that blanket of valuable turning information for you to count on when you need it.


All of the information on the pages of this site are free to read and learn from at no charge to you. I also have products available in My Shop that help to offset the hundreds of hours of time I spend making and maintaining this site.


As a kid, I was enjoyed picking up rocks to add to my meager and unimpressive (by geological standards) collection. Some things you never outgrow I suppose. I no longer collect rocks but do enjoy seeing interesting geology in the wild. Sand Creek, and really the whole area around Torrey, is a great area to see Petrified Wood in its geological setting. Kids and those with a geology interest will love spending an hour or more wandering under the sandstone cliff in Sand Creek looking at the various petrified wood. There are some fairly large and impressive specimens if you hunt around a bit.


From the parking area, let the wandering begin! No specifics are shown on the map, but small pieces litter the area next to the road. Wandering away from the road often leads to bigger specimens. We found up to about 6-inch diameter cross sections in a couple of places.


Are you ready to roll up your sleeves, distress some wood and create a DIY masterpiece that you can be proud of for years to come? Come alone or bring your friends and family to share in our wood project workshops!

Pollutants emitted from wood processing factories may be harmful to the health of the population. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate whether proximity to wood factories was associated with the risk of hospital admissions in children living in the Viadana district (Italy), where two big chipboard industries and other smaller wood factories (sawmills, multi-strata layer manufacturing) are located. In 2006, children (3-14 years) living in the Viadana district were surveyed through a parental questionnaire (n=3854), their home/school addresses were geocoded and the distances to the wood industries were calculated. Hospital discharge records for the years 2007-2009 were obtained. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to estimate the association between hospitalization rates and distance to the factories, adjusting for sex, age, nationality, parents' education, exposure to passive smoking and reported traffic near home. During the 3-year follow-up, the risk of hospitalization for all diagnoses (Hospitalization Hazard Ratio, HHR=1.55; 95% CI: 1.24-1.95) and for respiratory diseases (HHR=1.80; 95% CI: 1.14-2.86) was greater in the children living close (


For a painter whose primary concern was the human figure, Rembrandt drew and etched a remarkably large number of landscapes. This view of a cottage near the edge of a wood, although characteristic in subject matter, is exceptional among his landscapes for its fluidity of line, profusion of wash, and large scale. This is the artist's largest landscape drawing, and one in which the cottage architecture somewhat overwhelms nature. Although the number of drawings firmly attributed to Rembrandt has diminished in recent years, following more rigorous and systematic evaluations of his drawn oeuvre, this impressive sheet has stood its ground. The drawing is signed and dated 1644 in the same pen and ink used to lightly sketch in the main elements.



The painter and topographical draftsman Lambert Doomer (1624-1700) copied this drawing on several occasions. We may surmise that he owned Rembrandt's original, for it was probably bound in one of five drawing albums acquired by Doomer during the auction of Rembrandt's studio effects in 1657-58.


Named for legendary Kansas City restaurateur Joe Gilbert, our top-rated steak restaurant stands as a hometown tribute to the hospitality icon himself. We serve Midwestern-raised, USDA Prime Black Angus beef cooked over an open wood-fire grill, presented with the same inviting service and warmth for which Mr. Gilbert was known.


Low on the lighting. Elevated on the hospitality. The name J. Gilbert's is a tribute to the legendary restaurateur Joe Gilbert, a Kansas City restaurant icon who both embodied and pioneered hospitality. And true to our namesake, our promise remains simple: please people and serve honest food.


Our restaurant was born in Kansas City, a destination once known as the 'Paris of the Plains' because of its widespread penchant for bootlegging during Prohibition. With this under our belts, we craft and serve the finest cocktails, wines and more -- the perfect complement to an exceptional meal.
