 to SMF. You have come to the right place for smoking info. This site is loaded with great info just use the search bar at top of page to find what you are looking for. If you can't locate the answer just ask folks here are willing to share there knowledge. I suggest you take  the 5 day e-course on smoking its chuck full of great info.Smoking Basics 5-Day eCourse

I like a good build please post lots of pics

There have been some ( very few )  vertical offset builds, but (me personally) found that you get more grill area with the horizontal smokers

 

[clyde79]

i agree just wanted to build something different

 

[raptor700]

As long as your happy with it, i say go for it.

I'm looking forward to seeing your build pics.

I think part of the reason you don't see so many verticals is because they aren't "traditional" looking. I would like to build one myself someday. Do a search for Stumps clone and that should give you some results like this http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/111152/stumps-clone-build-aka-big-pig-rig

First off welcome to SMF there Clyde. You'll really like this place for there are a bunch of really good folks here that would just love to help you with just about anything to do with smoking meat. Then if you have any questions you just post them here or yu can try in chat for a faster answer. If you are really new to all of this I would recommend that you look up and take the e-course. It is free and it will also give you the basics on smoking. So with all that said now go and get something to smoke.
