    Hobart Model 1612 Meat Slicer

    Well I was able to talk the guy down to $180. Everything seems to work well. Motor starts fine and runs smoothly. The slicer was dirty but I spent a few hours this weekend getting it cleaned up. For $180 I think I made a good buy. Going to look for a sharpener from a family friend who owns a...

    Hobart Model 1612 Meat Slicer

    Thanks for the input guys. I am gonna try and look at it after work on Friday. I asked him straight up over the phone what his bottom dollar was and he said he would take $180. We will see. Saturday is my birthday so I cant think of a better gift for myself......I am sure you all would agree.

    Hobart Model 1612 Meat Slicer

    Thanks Farmer. I just got off the phone with the guy. Seemed honest. Said he and buddy bought it a few years ago with plans to use it for slicing deer jerky but decided it was too much of a hassel and now makes summer sausage instead. He didnt know what year it was made, but said he knows it...

    325 Gallon Reverse Flow Build

    Only seasoned it so far, but it gets up to 350 deg no problem with about 10 deg difference between the front and back. Gonna do some chicken this weekend and a shoulder the weekend after. Trying to get it seasoned and figure it out for a big party at the end of May.

    325 Gallon Reverse Flow Build

    Hey guys. Got some work done last weekend on the smoker. Didnt take any pics. I visited a different steel supply place here in town which sells TONS of drop pieces. Picked up some 1/8" & 3/16" plate drops (24"x36") for $.60 a lbs. which i thought was a decent deal. Got three sides of my warming...

    325 Gallon Reverse Flow Build

    Keith, The guide rails are actually even more simple than cutting down a piece of angle. I took a piece of 1/2"x1/4" flat stock and tacked it in place, then tacked a piece of 1"x1/8" flat stock on top of that, lapping the 1" halfway on the bottom 1/2" piece. For the actual sliding part, my...
