    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    That is also what I was thinking.  The problem I am going to have though is getting it hinged correctly.  It was originally hinged when I could put the firebox on its back and set it in.  Now it is immobile, so getting it held up with correct spacing is going to be a P.I.T.A....   I do have the...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    When you say inside, do you mean tear the door apart (it is a double walled door, with a frame), or on the side toward the fire?  I was thinking of removing the outer wall, insulation, and welding some more framing to the inside.  Maybe some angle on the fire side would be easier...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    Well, got it seasoned today.  Had fire in it about 6 hours total.  Found out that the firebox door isn't going to work.  When it gets hot, it totally freaks the **** out and bows.  The middle of the door is probably about 1/2" infront of the edges of the door when its been sealed up and going. ...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    Well, the smoker survived the weather down here in the Dallas / Ft Worth metroplex.  Infact, I got it back from blasting / paint on Thursday :D Got a little work done today on the shelves.  On-call started kicking my ass though around noon. Here is what it looked like when I got there this...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    I moved the trailer up to another city this morning to get the blasting / paint done... and there's a storm heading for it (with tornado already spit out of it).  The storms here in Dallas are REALLY bad right now.  There is a tornado reported about a mile or 2 north of my office right now...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    Proof that my mom was using the plasma on Saturday:) We did get stuff done today.  At this point, I think the only thing I forgot (I didn't have my trusty checklist handy today when trying to get it all done) was the 1/2" NPT couplers for my tru-tels.  Since I am going back tomorrow (if it...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    Ive been working my ass off today (since about 8am, it is now 5pm).  Had a call from work so I had to come up stairs.  I got the firebox trim up, some hinges made for my super latches, got a load of about 150' of 1" angle iron, and 1" square tubing, and about 50' of some flat. Have a helper...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    Today started off bad too... went home at 1pm (took half the day as paid time off), and started doing some stuff.  fixed the warming box door (had to cut off the hinges and re-weld them), then went to add an inside firebox door trim, and my welder wouldn't feed wire anymore.  Opened it up, and...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    Uggg!  last night I was working on it and everything that could go wrong, went wrong... First, at about 4:30, I pulled out the welder to start tacking a door frame together, and when I turned on the gas, I was out.  Had to hurry and drive through rush hour traffic to get to the nearest welding...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    I received some help getting the chimney and firebox on Sunday...   I ended up moving the trailer back to my house, since all the heavy lifting is done.  I hope to get my short list finished on it over the next 3 days so I can get some smoke through it before sending it off to a sand...

    Trailer Mounted Reverse Flow with added Goodies

    Well, I got some help from my uncle for lifting stuff today...  got the warming box tacked up, and some beats started.  One of the top tacks popped this evening though, so I said f*** it and packed in.  Tomorrow I'll have a couple guys (my brother, my family by marriage that use to do...
