    That firebox door looks great! Very nice detail. I'm looking forward to seeing how the whole things turns out.

    250L build - now a 35? gallon build

    Cool, I suppose if I'm worried about it damaging the chords I can make little grooves for them. I am looking forward to having that top frame rail to stick all the digital thermos to. :)

    250L build - now a 35? gallon build

    My wife raised an interesting thought yesterday. Should I create little ports for thermometer probes to be inserted into the tank for meat/cc monitoring? Or can their chords be closed in the door? With my WSM and propane cabinet I just feed them through the top pie vent, figured I'd just close...

    250L build - now a 35? gallon build

    My dad bolted on the wheels and I made some brackets for the cc handle. Have 2 more matching brackets for a door stop on the back of the tank. Need to shim the wheels on the firebox side because that end is a bit low. Will need to make a spacer block, no big deal. They look kind of wonky in...

    60 gallon RF build

    I have read (and built mine this way) that the chimney should extend down to about an inch above the bottom cook rack. I have not fired mine up yet for testing but am planning to do so later this week/this weekend. Can always cut it off shorter in there... hard to make it longer. heh.

    Well it's up on legs now. Just need bolts to attach the wheels. All that remains is the cc handle, something to stop the door from flipping over the back, mount thermometers and a few other finishing touches. She'll be cooking this weekend you'll see.

    60 gallon RF build

    You've come to the right place. I'm nearing completion of my ~35 gallon compressor tank build. The information and help from this forum has given me all kinds of confidence (first time welding/fabricating) and things are turning out great.  Use the calculator for your firebox/vent sizes, and...

    It has all the parts I need to cook now. The rest is gravy at this point ;)

    What was your very first smoker?

    My first was a cheapish propane cabinet, after a year I acquired an 18.5" WSM. I am currently building an RF out of a 35 gallon or so compressor tank. I like the propane cab for ribs, the WSM for butts and brisket, hoping the RF will be good for everything.

    250L build - now a 35? gallon build

    My Dad got all the rest of the pieces cut, beveled and prepped for me yesterday. He even went out and bought me some wheels for it! Figured I'd have it all welded up last night... nope! I managed to get the frame for the cook rack done, and the rails it sits on installed in the tank... but I...

    250L build - now a 35? gallon build

    Thanks! I just need to keep the drive alive. I've been making great progress (for me) and I don't want it to fizzle out and get pushed to a back burner like so many projects... haha There's still plenty of BBQ weather left up here in the great white north. I'm curious to find out how the wind...

    250L build - now a 35? gallon build

    Dave,  That's kind of where we settled out on the plan for it. 2 legs at the tank end, and 2 legs under the FB. 4 wheels all around, framing/bracing legs... that kind of thing. I'm not feeling very inspired by the support design (used it all up imagining the rest of the build... haha) but my...

    250L build - now a 35? gallon build

    Got the door flange fully welded last night, took me a while because I was really paranoid about warping the door and not having it close right...  Also planned out the cuts I need to assemble the cook rack and came up with some ideas for the support frame for the whole unit. My dad has the day...
