I want to build a cart w/ wheels, etc. for my smoke vault. For those that have done this would you mind posting some pics? I'm trying to get a template for my dad to help me build this. Basically looking for some ideas. Bassman I know you built one but I couldn't find a pic through the search function.

Thanks for your help!

I haven't built one but all you should need is a pallet (you can cut down) or just a furniture dolly and you should be able to bolt the wheels down if not just drill a hole in the legs of you smoke vault

I remember seeing on one of the threads where someone took a small tool cart from Harbor Freight and turned the top tray upside down so the door would open to make a cart for a smoker...

Mark, I didn't put mine on a cart. I just braced the legs and installed casters raising the legs up 1/2 inch off the floor. I don't remember who built a cart but it'll come to me. My stepson just used a leftover piece of countertop and put casters under that. Bolted the smoker to it and it works just fine.

Finally got around to posting some pics of the cart my dad built. I moved into a new subdivision and there a lot of homes under construction and we used the scrap the builders had tossed aside. This is perfect. I look right at the middle of the smoker so no more crouching and no more hot door to the side of the head. had some issues w/ that lol. . we painted it as well to protect it from the elements.

Nice looking cart, Mark. I really should build something a little higher for mine but I guess I'm just lazy.
