    New fridge build

    The stainless is 20 guage and it wasn't cheap, around $400. Yes I used aluminum angle, as far as the dowel I didn't notch them or anything was gonna play that by ear, kinda figured that when they are loaded with sausage the weight would hold them in place. I spent more than I really wanted to...

    Dave, I'll keep an eye on that, there is actually a lot of room around those pans but the picture doesn't show it very well.

    BigBell,  I don't recall the actual R Value but I used one batt and the batts were 3" thick and I think 16"x48"? One batt was just enough!! Well I pretty much have got this thing done, the cabinet is done and seasoned! Now all I have to do is get the PID put together and the thermocouple...

    New fridge build

    I did get the door insulated and sheeted with stainless, will be picking up the angle iron today for rack hangers. Will probably get it smokin this weekend. Went ahead and heated it up last week and got it up to 220, took about an hour and half to get there but that seems acceptable. Will...

    How the heck do you run this PID....Any simpler instruction would be appreciated!!!

    I thought that it would be useful if when making sausage to have the smoker turn off or reduce the temp when the meat reached a certain temp! In general I am usually around doing something else and have a good idea of the temps anyway, so not a big deal. Gary

    How the heck do you run this PID....Any simpler instruction would be appreciated!!!

    Backer, I thought that that was what your goal was, I think that I got that from one of your prior posts? So that particular unit is not capable of dual probes, hmmm? I am trying to figure out which PID controller to buy? I would like it to have that feature, I might have to call Auberins!!

    Have you been able to use the meat probe yet? That feature of the particular unit would be really handy when doing sausage!!

    Utility Cart Holding Cabinet Conversion - Should work well eh?

    Packer, I am really interested if you were able to get your PID figured out to work the way you wanted it to?? I am building a fridge build and am wanting to order parts here soon and want mine to do the same things that you described on page two. Gary

    Well, I finally came up with some more funds and made some more progress on the smoker! Got her insulated with Roxull and the stainless interior and durock on the lower area and a temporary panel on the outside of the door. Did a test burn without insulation on the door and got it up to 190 in...

    Well as promised here are some pic's of the Build. This is how far I have gotten so far. The plan at this point is to use a brinkman element. The lower section is going to get lined with Durock and the upper portion is going to get stainless. I was going to try and use metal roofing but after...
