Thanks, I PM'd you. We plan on building a rack underneath the pit and we are going to build a little step/platform to stand on.I have followed this post now and am in the process of getting materials to get a smoker made. The dimensions will be very similar to what you have done here. Would you be able to share any drawings/measurements with me as I begin this journey? Thanks and I'm sure everyone would love to see how the grill is coming along.
Also, do you have to stand on something to open those doors?!?
As far as the size and thickness of the angle its 1" x 1" x 1/8" thk.Can you tell me a few things?
Size and thickness of angle iron you used for slides and for tuning plates to rest on? How did you figure the grate stops so they won't fall off when loaded with food?
Are both grates the same dimensions?
What kind of valve and where did you find it?
Thanks!
My father in law picked up my pipe, 34 inch diameter and 6ft long this past week. I have to gather the other materials needed now and really like your build.
