Thanks for that second link! I love cast iron, don't get me wrong. I had a
cast iron hibachi and that style is what my dad would remember - with the
adjustable 2 racks side by side rather than the Lodge "camp stoves" which
don't have that feature. Dad is into the "remember when" thing. And no, I
can't afford to send him a $100 grill plus shipping at this point. He
probably shouldn't be trying to lift a 19 lb. grill anyway - the man is 80
years old and weighs about 125 lbs. He won't use the hibachi all that much.
