    PLANNING FIRST BUILD ( PICS NOW INCLUDED )

    I GOT THE VERTICAL CC INSULATED AND THE INNER SKIN TACKED IN.  I ALSO CUT THE PIPE FITTINGS OFF OF THE TOP OF THE TANK AND I AM READY TO WELD THE HOLES SHUT AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE THE DOORS. I AM KEEPING MY EYES OPEN FOR A TRAILER TO MOUNT THIS THING ON WHEN IT IS DONE.  DOES ANYONE HAVE A...

    325 Gallon Reverse Flow Build

    I AM NEW TO BUILDING SMOKERS BUT FROM WHAT I READ ON HERE I THINK THAT YOU MAY HAVE A REAL HOT SPOT WHERE YOUR RF PLATE STARTS WITHOUT THE TOP OF THE FIRE BOX TO BLOCK SOME OF THE HEAT.  SOME OF THE BUILDS I HAVE READ ON HERE EVEN EXTEND THE TOP OF THE FIREBOX INTO THE CC UNDER THE RF PLATE TO...

    PLANNING FIRST BUILD ( PICS NOW INCLUDED )

    I LIKE THE CHANNEL IRON IDEA FOR THE FIRE BOX DOOR.  THE ROPE GASKET WILL TAKE UP ANY GAPS I MAY HAVE.  IS IT AS IMPORTANT TO HAVE THE CC SEALED UP AIR TIGHT OR CAN I GET AWAY WITH A LITTLE LEAKAGE THERE?  I HAVE THE CC TANK TACKED ONTO FIRE BOX NOW.  I FLIPPED IT UP ON ITS FRONT AND HAVE...

    PLANNING FIRST BUILD ( PICS NOW INCLUDED )

    I AM JUST GETTING BACK TO MY BUILD.  I HAVE NOT HAD MUCH TIME LATELY TO WORK ON IT.  I AM ALMOST READY TO TACKLE THE FIREBOX AND VERTICAL SMOKER DOORS.  I AM GOING TO INSULATE THESE DOORS ALSO.  I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO USE FOR HINGES AND HOW TO GET THE DOORS TO SEAL UP TIGHT.  ANY SUGGESTIONS?

    PLANNING FIRST BUILD ( PICS NOW INCLUDED )

    I HAD TO TAKE A LITTLE TIME OFF FROM THE BUILD TO DO A LITTLE COOKIN. 4 SLABS OF PORK RIBS AND A SMALL BEEF ROAST. THIS IS THE RIG I AM COOKIN WITH UNTIL I COMPLETE THIS BUILD.  IT WORKS PRETTY GOOD AND IS FUN TO COOK ON.
