4. Get 4 Styrofoam cubes and add at the sides evenly leaving space in between!

5. Add cement into the spaces and arrange steel sticks leaving space between one another just like a cooking rack!

6. Add a rounded plastic bucket with no end over the steel sticks and fill it in with sand to add weight to the sticks.
