Homebuilt to almost perfection. Used an old air compressor and typical things lying around a shop. Burned out the inside to get a good seasoning and maxed out the temperature. Removed the old paint with paint remover and a steel sandpaper bit. Spray painted with 6 cans of High heat paint.

Nice looking smoker. Congrats on getting it finished for the holiday.
 
Daggone that is one good looking smoker. Your shelves and supports are A-OK, my friend! That thick support tubing gives it an awesome look.
 
Nice lookin rig. That's about the size I'd like.

How close are the temps at the 2 ends reading during use?
 
YEAH! Thats is the neatest smoker I 've seen. just needs a touch of the reverse flow . BUT I really like the "overbuilt" look witht eh large DIA tubes and metal grate. nice balence! Give us a Q/view when your using it. !

All the BEST!
 
I'm still trying to figure things out. The left seems be off by a couple of degrees. I am fairly new to smoking and I am looking for the soft blue smoke. Controlling the temperature is my biggest problem so far. I am not sure now much gap to leave on the top damper or how much air intake to let in on the box.
 
Thanks, I am going to smoke a brisket and some Boston Butts for the 4th, I will do a Qview then.

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments.
