Make a grate for it out of copper mesh. Make a copper ring for each of the four corners of the grate. Place the grate under the ledge of the altar so that it comes halfway up the altar. Prepare poles out of acacia wood for the altar. Cover them with copper. The poles should be put through the rings on both sides of the altar and used to carry it.
