So i started off just making a griller... untill i found smokers!!
Then found an old propane bottle to use as the fire box
I got an old desk frame that i modified to mount the smoker onto.
Tried mounting the fire box together, then worked out i cut the hole wrong! Re weld and cut a new oval shape. This process was rather challenging with 2 cylinders!
Mounted and door cut out.
Air intake fabricated
Door on, with handle and latch made. Everything to do with a cylinder firebox is difficult! !
exhaust mounted. This is too long at the moment according to calculators, but i wanted to wait just in case!
gave it all a good burn off, but the cooking chamber was a little rusty and i couldnt get it to a nice finish to be painted.. next stop sand blaster!
straight after picking it up from sandblaster, really glad i did this cost $40 and got it looking new again. 3 cans of high temp paint was next!
Put a couple of thermometers in the lid, added A bit of woodwork for the shelf and shes done (for now!)
