    Cajun Custom Cookers

    Kyle, I am with you on that most of the welds could be covered easy in one pass if prepped correctly. That maybe fine n dandy to weld like that on a large gas line, but if you are building smokers comercially there is no way you are going to go to all that trouble to prep a weld area. I would...

    Help FIREBOX size

    Go much bigger on the firebox for something that small.    Make it 50% of the cooker volume.  My 2 cents

    cadillac?

    They need to name that : The pride of Texas      Did you build it  Kam? Can't be one of Dave's as it does not have the dual air inlet set up. We don't have Cadillac's in Argentina, so can't be mine.   Maybe I can cut up a 4 door Falcon, that's about all they are good for along with making...

    Advice on a build - building a smoker inside a wall / hill side

    For me a 10x3" intake would be fine.  Thats about the size I run on my double door vertical smokers. I usually leave the cooking chamber door open when lighting the fire and once the fire gets going well close it. All that big cold steel does not want to draw, but after 15 mins it gets going...

    Stainless smoker build

    Some slick welding there alright.    Yes you will have to watch it does not get too top heavy and flip.

    Pit bbq headed high into the Andes mountains

    Yep that is the plan and also to give enough ground clearance under the firebox so it is not mounted too high on the cooker.    Works a charm

    Pit bbq headed high into the Andes mountains

    4 in the first month of production.    Just need more skilled hands to make em.     I would have liked to use your upper intake but too much work explainin to folks how to use it.

    Pit bbq headed high into the Andes mountains

    Thought y'all might want to know BBQ is spreading here in South America.    This is the new model trailer and the customer is proudly headed (at about 100mph) to Las leñas in the Andes mountains in between Chile and Argentina.      https://goo.gl/maps/iJVbx7Uj2u92 I build them using 3 120...

    New ~84" x ~36" reverse flow smoker

    Yep, looks tall to me also, but that is an easy fix with a grinder and cut off wheel.

    First smoker build reverse flow any suggestions????

    Nice going   Check how the door fits on the right as you have not left much meat between the door and end of cooker.  If you are running multiple racks weld them in now before you weld the end cap on.   it is much easier to tweak the 2" ring you have and hold it in position with the racks, then...

    welder

    I agree with Socal cooker . Just don't buy one of those flux cored jobs from harbor freight no matter how inviting the price maybe.  (think trying to weld using a sparkler)

    Started building my first reverse flow pit this weekend. Here are some pictures of the progress. 20"

    You can make some handles like I use.   Easy to make, hard to break.     Nice build.
