    Super Fantastic Fun Time 100lb RF Build

    @daveomak Do you think a 60 gallon propane tank warrants the additional 20-30% when calculating everything? I picked up a 4' piece of 4" OD steel pipe from a job site the other day. Sure would be nice to use this as the exhaust stack.

    Thanks for feedback! I have been kicking around fabricating an octagon with plates, but I have no experience welding. I think I would give up and walk away from the project if I went that route lol. Time to scrounge up some 1/4" plates for the firebox and legs for the stand!

    Super Fantastic Fun Time 100lb RF Build

    @daveomak I have bought in on the concept. I was referencing the 100# builds that @civilsmoker had shared with that comment. I apologize if any offense was taken, I was poking the 100# long concept. The 1x2 (diameter x length) ratio for the CC seems to be the constant that runs through the...

    Super Fantastic Fun Time 100lb RF Build

    Gentleman down the road had a 60g. Bottom is a little pitted, not bad considering she was built in the 50's. 22" outside diameter and about 42" long. Gave me the whole "I have other people interested.. " 50$ later she is in my garage upside down with the valve off. Not sure if it was a great...

    I hear you on the honey do list lol. Thanks for taking the time to point me in the right direction and reminding me to simmer down / slow my roll. I am itching to have the grinder throw sparks and stack some dimes lol. The Copper Pot is a sweet a$$ build, looks nice! That reverse sear grate...

    Thanks for the suggestions @civilsmoker. I have seen those build threads. Not much feedback after the builds were complete, it would be nice to see if they performed well or ended up as yard art.

    Super Fantastic Fun Time 100lb RF Build

    @daveomak The inside diameter of the tank is roughly 14.5" and the length is roughly 40". I followed the guidelines in the initial post and excel sheet on the next to last page. I added 10% to the volume to come up with the remaining values. I am not opposed to cutting the tank down, it is just...

    My first RF smoker, 120 gallon

    I really dig this build. I may or may not steal some concepts ;). The door prop and drain style caught my eye.

    Super Fantastic Fun Time 100lb RF Build

    Hello everyone! I have acquired an old 100# propane tank and am converting it over to a reverse flow smoker. Holla! I have ran the numbers and would like your input on my calcs. Volume is coming in @ 6616 cubic inches. Based on numerous comments about longer cooking vessels, I bumped this up...

    Hello from MI

    Thanks for all of the welcomes folks! I'm sure I will have questions for @daveomak. The builds on here and his info are priceless. I need to run the calcs before I waste anyone's time with questions. An unused 100# propane tank "landed" in my yard for 50$, seems like a start of a build lol.
