    SmokinWelders First Smoker Ever!!!! 250 gallon/trailer build

    SmokinWelder...i think the weight distribution of the tank on the trailer should be 60/40 . 60 being in front of the axle, 40 behind.

    So I will weld the flat bar on from underneath? Sounds like a good idea and a good way to hidE the weld. I would have just welded the flat bar to the door from the outside of the flatbar. Thanks for the tip.

    Smokinwelder...I made my cut along the edge of the seam to the inside of the tank. I was unaware of the extra steel on the inside. I will know for next time though!

    First 250 gal RF build

    A question for the experienced RF builders. What is my next step? I have cut out the doors except for the corners and middle. Im assuming i need to get hinges on them and get them cut out first and then get the RF plate situated?
