Hi, i am fairly new to the meat smoking arena but i love it so far!  I had a old potbelly stove that was going to waste and decided to build a smoker out of it.   I built a smoke box and attached that to the stove with duct work. I can burn wood, charcoal or use propane now because i installed a turkey fryer burner in the bottom of the stove!  It works pretty good and heats up wood that i put in a pan to create my smoke.    Just recently i had the idea of hooking up a cold smoker to it to make it easier for all night cooks with out having to run out of smoke, so i decided i will get  a smoke daddy to hook up the smoke box section. As soon as i figure out how to upload video or pictures i'll show you my setup.  Thanks, great forum you have here!
 
I've got to see this thing so here is something that will show you just how to upload a picture:

Just so you know since you are new if you post any pics our software will probably hold the post until a moderator can approve it. Just be patient and don't double post it because you don't see it show up right away, someone will get to it! We do this to keep the spammers out and so no one posts anything inappropriate until we get to know them. This only lasts until you make about 20 posts.

I see this is your first post here, when you get a minute would you do us a favor and go to Roll Call and introduce yourself so we can get to know you and give you a proper welcome, also would you add your location to your profile, we like knowing where you are when we talk to you, Thanks!
 
I thought i did the roll call thing didn't i?   Double check and if there is something additional i need to know please let me know.  Thanks for the directions on uploading a photo, i'll work on it and hopefully get a few up this weekend. I just finished installing the cold smoker and am pretty much finished with everything for all intents and purposes.  There are a few odds and ends that i still  want to do like adding a electric heating element in the smoke chamber in case i don't want to use charcoal or propane and want to do some jerky. Eventually i want to repaint the stove portion with my team colors. 
 
No I checked and you didn't post in Roll Call but no biggie! But if you wouldn't mind adding your location to your profile, it really helps people to know where you are such as climate and altitude when they offer advice, Thanks!
 
Howdy FWI......I want to see pics of your build too! It sounds cool! Welcome to SMF! Glad you joined us!:welcome1:
 
Thank you, i will probably take you up on some recipes!  I'll have some pics up hopefully this weekend. :)
 
I just saw that you posted a new thread in "Roll Call" and there are 3 pictures in there, I think that's where they are and you might have thought you were in this thread when you posted them.

Great looking little smoker!!!
