    Quoting to let you know the thread is updated.  Sorry it took a while.  Forgot to respond when I saw the notice.

    Charcoal Fridge Smoker Plan (updated with WIP picks - 5/30/13)

    Mine just rests on the floor.  The bottom of the box is set up an inch for air flow from the bottom.  I wanted to do something that slides out, but I don't believe I'll be needing to add charcoal during most cooks.   Have you started your build?  If so, is there a thread anywhere?  Would like...

    Charcoal Fridge Smoker Plan (updated with WIP picks - 5/30/13)

    Thanks for the heads up Dave.  I'll take a closer look at it next time I'm back. BBQ - i used regular insulation.  We were grinding right next to it and it never caught.  Figured that would be hotter than anything the smoker will see.  However, I did attach the rope with Rutland.  That doesn't...

    Charcoal Fridge Smoker Plan (updated with WIP picks - 5/30/13)

    Thanks guys.  It's been fun. In no hurry though.  The ECB works great for my wife and I at this point.  Dave, are you referring to how the skin lays on the door, or how the door shuts with the new skin?  The skin was pretty tight to the door.  I put a bead of Rutland sealant around it to help. ...

    Charcoal Fridge Smoker Plan (updated with WIP picks - 5/30/13)

    Another holiday weekend, another trip to the parents to work on the smoker.  Finished insulating and enclosing the smoker.  Use sealant all openings and imperfections in the metal work/fridge. Seal up the opening with fiberglass rope and sealant.  Next time I make it back I'll be able to season...

    There are two different fridges.  I'm making a charcoal smoker out of the Firestone.  Might do an electric one with the International.

    Charcoal Fridge Smoker Plan (updated with WIP picks - 5/30/13)

    Was able to get back to my parents for the holidays and continue this build.  Sadly, this is looking to be a year long build as I won't be able to make it back now until May.  It doesn't look like much was done, but the entire smoke box has been completed and sealed with caulk.  Mounted the box...
