Ok i have just got a large filing cabinet from work, i fancied trying to turn it into a smoker so while not finished heres a sneak preview of the build.
my idea is to keep the sliding draws, its quite cool to pull the draws out with cooked food inside
i felt all 4 draws was to large so i have cut off one
cut out the bottom of the "food" draws and inserted stainlessteel mesh
The bottom draw will hold the charcoal pit, smaller area to allow better air flow throght the coals(i hope), i can also pull out the draw to top up the fire if need be!
im trying to control temp from the air flow through the stack, here i have an adjustable baffell i can slide in/out as need be
the stack finished although i may need to increase the height, ill see when i first fire it up
Im slighty concerned about the thin plastic coat through out, do you think i may need to have a big fire in it first and burn it all off?
so far so good, ill keep you posted
