She needs a bit more work to finish her off but she's ready for cooking.

The work can wait. Once it's ready to cook you have to fire it up!

Hello Rob.  MAN! I like it!  What a great idea.  What sort of heat inlets do you have or is there no bottom at all in the barrel?  Keep Smokin!

Howdy Danny.
I cut a six inch hole in the bottom of the drum and suspended a metal drip tray two inches above the opening.
Thanks mate.

OK Rob.  Want details and pictures of that first smoke!!  Might need to tweak a thing or two but sounds like it should work pretty well.  You should be on to a winner.  Keep Smokin!

I'm doing my first big smoke up this coming Saturday for my wife's birthday. I'm doing a 6 pound pork butt and several babybacks. I will post up pics ASAP.
