Here it is the day I delivered it last saturday. It has been seasoned and had two cooks on it. Runs perfect. I just need to teach him it doesnt need much wood at all to run steady temps.

Got the fire basket and exhaust dampner done. Its getting dark too early for me to finish it during the week. This friday we will see the finished product! I had to put a counterweight on the door. He could get it with two hands but now its a one hand operation.

Your welcome. You too bud.

Got a little more done today. Firebox is pretty much done. Just need to make the coal basket, and finish the exhaust dampner.

Let me do some math and I'll give ya a holler. I would need to find a 500 gal. tank.

Yes. I will build whatever the customer wants.

Thanks guys!

Some of you may have seen this thread in the reverse dlow section. It originally was going to be a reverse flow untill I changed my mind at the last minute. For those that don't know this is a tribute cooker I'm building for my stepdad. He is an Army Vet and he was married to my mom for 41...

I'm going to move this thread over to the side fire box section. Be sure to go over there for the rest of the updates on this build. I'm going to post some updates later today, so be sure to check it out in the side fire box section.

Hoping to finish it by the end of this weekend. Guess I shouldve put this in the side firebox section. I thought I was going to do a reverse flow but changed my mind at the last minute.

I got the exhaust finished up. Still need to smooth out the welds and get the seal strap on the door.

That door turned out nice! I would use those holes as probe ports.

Sold!

Yes sir. But those lobes have pretty sharp edges.

Yes it is! Going for a material run today. I should get moving pretty good on it this weekend.
