    Custom smoker build

    I am waiting for a buddy to save me some aluminum pieces for an outside cover before using too much, but I am thinking about putting a fan in it as well to even put some of the temperatures. In the picture is the fan I think I am wanting to use but was curious as to what people use for controls...

How much space do you all think is possible to heat with an oven element? I have 240v outlet that I plan to use. Inexpensive is the better route for me at...

    Custom smoker build

    I like the idea of building my own, but the convienece of buying one sometimes takes the cake... At this point im more likely to steer in the direction that cost less, im not in a huge hurry for one, yet. That's a pretty sweet rig you have going on there. I can't wait to see it in action.

I have the element (free)...

    Custom smoker build

I thinking about 20" x 24" x 36" tall interior dimensions. With a vent on the top of one side around 3" diameter or 3"...

    Newbie to the game. I am wanting to build a smoker for sausage and such. I have an old digital 240v wall oven that has a bad board. My plan was to use the element (and possibly the bar fan if needed). I was thinking I would get a manual thermostat to control temperature with from Amazon . I plan...
