Hey guys - any help/advice/ideas would be awesome!!
So I recently got around like maybe 100 or so bricks from a buddy at work that was ripping up the walkway to his house. So I was trying to think of what to do with these things, landscaping etc. Then I thought to myself... I've been wanting a smoker and then realized I might actually have the perfect option/project sitting in the damn backyard as we speak!
So the previous owner of the house left this coup in the tree-line which apparently used to be the home to a Goose, which I was told sadly one day just disappeared lol.. so I went and dragged this thing out of the tree-line with my lawn tractor and this is what I'm working with...

So I open this thing up and I'm like wow, this is a pretty decent set-up if I wanted to try and turn this thing into some sort of a smoker...

i'm not exactly sure what kind of wood this thing is made out of but it's withstood the test of time for at last a few years which is cool with me even if I get a few more good years out of it...
So this is what I'm thinking:
I can pressure wash the smoker and use the recently acquired bricks that I have to build a firebox leading into the side of the smoker to burn wood/pellets. I can cut the legs off of the smoker, and put down some large concrete pavers for the base of the smoker.
