Gunna jack ya thread for a couple of pics Hendo,

Here's ours in action at Outback Challenge in 06
Made from 2 star droppers with bits of 4mm thick angle welded in 5 spots, it uses the gears off a 12 speed mountain bike we bought from a garage sale for $10, and that is turned by a Datsun 180B wiper motor with a 2 amp fuse in it we then stuck a bit of galv plate near the motor to shield it from heat.
It has a boned out pork forquarter on it that has been wrapped completely with the skin to get 360 degree crackling!...it works a treat and never even made the battery disconnect on the car it was running on after 3 1/2 hrs, we even put a 21kg full lamb on it and it still turnd with no drama's...its a trooper!

[MudRunnerTD]

Nice work there lads!

I spent a few years up in the North of PNG and the locals had a different spin on things for the whole spit setup.

We used to kill a small pig and do a spit at least once a month and had a great time.

The guys had a 4m length of 25mm water pipe with a cap on one end and a Toyota Steering wheel on the other. We would build a good fire, spread it out about a metre and then a Y at each end. The water pipe would be loaded up with the meat and spanned the fire supported by the Y pieces.

one of the kids would sit there and turn the wheel ;) The kids would take turns and it always came out a treat. I dont have a pic damn it.
