    So i am ordering the mesh right now and planning out doing my satoshi next weekend. I was just wondering how most people attach the mesh to the grill? Also any other things i should really keep in mind while doing this?

    I also used small L brackets and epoxied them to the grill. Then just got se bolts and it has worked great.
    I got the brackets at Lowes in the picture hanging/screw section.
