    **New Member = First Reverse Flow Smoker Build from 60 Gallon Compressor Tank**

    Hey Ink, How much copper is in that stuff? Copper will make steel rust in a hurry if it doesn't stay suspended in the silicone. I had some problems on my boat where the guy I bought it from used copper fittings against regular steel pipe fittings. Copper is a very noble metal in the galvanic...

    My first build - 120 gallon tank

    Prices are supply and demand and do vary a lot. If you know anyone in the fabrication business, see if you can tag on one of their orders, they get really good prices. One of my friends has a big fab shop and I get to run my stuff through his account number but pay cash at pickup. He buys by the...

    insulate the cooking chamber?

    I've thought about it but put it on the side burner after trying to figure out how to handle the door at the upper hinge line. If you left that area uninsulated, it would only be a couple of inches for that width. I'm not in a cold climate so it is a non starter, but for guys up north, I think...

    I spied the dust pan against the counter, I bet it won't stay dusty long!

    325 Gal Reverse flow

    Fill it up with water with some Dawn soap, if it is full of water, there will not be any gas left.

    My first build - 120 gallon tank

    I'll take a stab at your initial questions, you didn't break any "rules", we just must have missed this one since it takes more time than the average request and got in the "to do" list and not followed back up. What is the "under RF plate" should I make the RF plate the same height as the top...

    Beautiful job! By George, I think you've got it! Very nice smoke ring, by the way!

    boykjo's reverse flow build 05/07/2015 update

    Foamheart at least gave you a quarter of a year to get it done before he poked at you for status!

    novasbc's 250 gallon propane tank build

    Ride a scooter over a 4x4 @ speed, it will  go airborne even with suspension. If it flies, it has been loaded well above the static weight. How much you need to worry about that is only a function of how you drive when pulling it, ease around and it is not problem, haul ass over rough roads and...

    Burning out my tank

    Yup, that looks like oil free for sure. Does it have any lingering smells? Do you have a small propane torch? If it doesn't smell, and you have a torch, just make a few passes around inside, wipe it down, and call it good.

    RF firebox size

    No, not too big. You really don't count the area under the fire grate so you give up some there. You will be just fine.

    First time reverse air flow build. 55gal drum

    There is a Hispanic place in town that cooks chickens every weekend on split barrel grills, they have been running constantly for the last several years and I think they only replaced one of them. The grease seems to preserve them pretty well. If you have good wood access, they should not burn...

    20" Pipe RF Smoker

    I learned on stick and did it for a long time, I've just gotten spoiled by pulling the trigger and getting busy. I've lost the touch and the patience to get it back!

    **New Member = First Reverse Flow Smoker Build from 60 Gallon Compressor Tank**

    That really isn't that bad considering it is precut. Measure three times, it would suck to get it back and you didn't include the wall thicknesses when you were laying everything out. Been there done that, not fun...

    That smoker is a thing of beauty! I'm glad it works great for you.

    Burning out my tank

    Not too hot at all, those things will warp very easily. If it was an oil less compressor, it won't take much heat at all. Smell it and see if you smell a hint of oil, it may be fine with a washout with Dawn. Propane and fuel tanks are the ones that really need to be burned....

    20" Pipe RF Smoker

    I'm so used to MIG and TIG, when I try to stick weld, all I'm good at is "sticking" rods to the workpiece....
