Step 3The base
The size of the base all depends on the size of the fireplace, firepit, barbecue, or whatever you intend to use to cook it is. You may want to construct yours to be shorter than mine. We have a large fireplace with that makes lots of coals. You want the coals to be a few inches from the dowel. I have seen this cooked on a variety of surfaces so use judgment. (you may have to change the height of your base).
Cut the angle rods to your desired size. Mine was about 27" by 10". Drill holes in the angle rods and attach the components of the base with the nuts and bolts.
Cut more angle rods (i used tin strips to make detailed cuts so that they interfit better) Drill and attach them as well. I assume you can figure out the dimensions and placement of the bolts yourself. You ARE on a website about building things so i hope you have a bit of carpentry skills.
