"Frankensmoker" Build

[sqwib]

I wanted to have this finished before I posted the blog, but figured if I post it now, someone may stop me from making a terrible mistake and/or it may help someone else out with their current build.

Be warned the blog is long and is only in the order of how I am building it.

Looking good, I am about to do a similar build with a 80 gal compressor tank. Just need some warmth to get me in gear..

Your build looks great, almost exactly the same dimensions as the one I'm currently making.
Thanks for all the nice clear pics ya have, I was wondering how I was going to do something to help with the weight of the lid.

If you have a 20" diameter tank, its a bit tight.

Man Oh Man thats gonna be a fine smoker there. Now you talk about a step by step Qview you sure did that. Great job on everything.

Wow, great build. I just remembered I have a upright compressor tank at work with a handle and wheels, think I'll turn it into a propane unit for work time lunches. Thanks.
