DurtyBurd69-Welcome to SMF. To best answer those questons, head on over to the smoker build forum. Our members have build some pretty amazing smokers using oil drums and propane tanks-it's just a matter of what your intended use is.

Be sure to check out the Build forum-plenty of things post there that will give you so many ideas you won't be able to choose which way to go-kinda like a woman in a shoe store. . .:biggrin:
