    Another question to all. If one doesn't use stainless steel for the racks, what kind of metal should I use? I was quoted $520 for 2 14"x20" expanded stainless steel shelves. A bit much.

    Yes that helps a great deal. It will be a few weeks before I get to this point, but I thought it would be good to consider it at this time to help plan for it. I have a couple of friends that are handy in this area, so I'm sure they'll help. (for a bit of smoked meat). Thanks again. Now time to...

    Thanks again Scooter. The inside of my refer is 14" dp x 21" w x 30" h. Is there any rule of thumb as to how many air changes should occur to keep the smoke fresh? How is the best way to drill through the porcelain finish of the refer? I hope I'm not asking too many questions. Larry

    What a great job! Love the end product. How did you get your exhaust stacks ? Did you make them? What is the diameter? Do you have air intakes? Larry

    The heat source is a heating element or a hot plate. It can not be removed because it is sealed, and inaccessible, except around the door. See photo I plan on sealing the joint with some stainless steel, strips replacing the plastic. The only way to access it is to remove the top of the...

    Thanks guys, I have more questions. The insulation in my refrigerator appears to be of sawdust. See Photo Wood ignites at 451 degrees. Since I can't remove the insulation and the process requires me to crank up the heat as high as I can, should I be concerned about the high heat needed to...

    Finished sanding and most of the rust is gone. I found out that my refrigerator is a 1932 Westinghouse model D-54. In insulation spread to be either a splintered wood product or ??? Next step work on replacing plastic parts with metal and re-assembling.
