Homemade BBQ Coal or wood Barbecue

I recently built a new deck out of Vitex Hardwood and wanted a barbecue to match. But I am sick of gutless, soulless gas BBQ's so wanted to build a more traditional BBQ like I remembered as a kid (A steel plate over a fire) but with a bit of class like a modern gas Barbie.
So I started dreaming of building one out of my decking leftovers. I thought it would be cheap to build... and I guess material wise it was not to bad as much of it was leftovers from other projects... but it took a bit longer to build than I hoped.
Anyway the video also turned out a bit long so I have cut it into multiple parts. This is part one, the firebox and the frame.
