    Gary, I Iike the idea of a dive flag off the chimney but a Jolly Roger would be more my style.

    LOL!! Gary the polished tank is a definite no go!  We have an exceptionally beautiful day here and when I rolled it out into the sun the light reflecting off the shiny spot on the tank nearly blinded me! I guess that's why the are not many chromed/polished smokers around!

    Funny you should ask Gary! Just black for now but  yesterday when I was smoothing out the weld at the chimney Mrs Tobycat commented on how that area of the tank looks nice polished since it;s chromoly steel and asked if I could do the WHOLE tank like that!  It's a nice idea but I have polished a...

    Scuba tank mini reverse flow - first build

    Every time I think I am about done with this project I find something more to do. Today I decided to put a  couple welds on the inside of the hinge pivots attached to the firebox.  Of course after I did that the door would not shut! (I got a good laugh out of it)  spent some time with the hand...

    Gary, on your vertical build how did you prep for paint ? did you sand off all the scale on the steel down to bare metal? and what did you use as a solvent to wipe it down before paint. Primer or no primer and which type/brand of paint?

     Gary that just makes too much sense! I had always figured the wheel hoops were made on a roll bender which is one of the reasons I went with the tricycle wheels. Wouldn't mind building a set of steel wagon wheels though.  Gonna try em' with a piece of 6" pipe.

    Scuba tank mini reverse flow - first build

    Made a plate for the chimney damper today in stainless, I used the threaded piece I cut off the concrete anchor from the door hinge for the swivel pin. Just a couple things left to do. Make the basket/shelf for wood storage underneath and decide if  it will get a shelf/cutting board in...

    Gary that is one beautiful smoker!  I passed up a  large  fireproof three drawer filing cabinet awhile back, I was going to use the stainless refrigerator hinges and latches like you did.  What kind of jig setup did you use to weld up the wheels?
