Start of smoker build.
Finally got all the bits (almost) fabricated. Going to build 3 smokers all the same :) Will be busy learning how to weld all winter but hopefully won't be too bad. Have space and tools and a friend who's an expert welder so should be ok.- niallam

Start of smoker build.
The metalworks that's making our cylinder can make them but we're going with his competition about 25 miles apart so 1 shop won't have all our smoker plans :D- niallam

Start of smoker build.
Box plans done. Getting these pieces fabricated and then just a square for the base on the box. All in 5mm steel. We'll be using an ash try so that's why we need the bit more space on the bottom of the box. The top will fit nicely this way as well.- niallam

Start of smoker build.
Thought it would be a lot dearer myself too. Met with my friend who's our welder this evening and he drew out all we need and some great ideas too. We're getting as much as we can fabricated for us. Simple ideas like if we need a 506mm diameter disk for each end because we have a 500mm...- niallam

Best mesh?
Could I just use 304 stainless? Irish weather doesn't lend itself to year round BBQ cooking so would be afraid rust over the year could be a problem.- niallam

Best mesh?
Folks I'm looking for the best type of mesh for a smoker build for the racks. Been googling but can't find the name of the type used. It's probably got a specific use other than a BBQ which would lead me to it but I ain't sure :) Thanks.- niallam

New from Ireland
A BBQ in Ireland normally consists of a few burgers and burned chicken on a gas grill :D But we're definitely famous for our drink lol -
New Smoker Build
First step completed. 480 x 1000mm cylinder rolled and welded in 3mm steel and 2 x 3mm 486mm circles to seal ends. €140 for everything, or £98ish. Worked it out at 48 gallons so need to know if people think that's big enough? I can get any size made for not a lot more increase in €. This is...- niallam
