looking to get stick burner

[smokingnoregon]

i cook with pellet smokers but i am wanting a stick burner. i live in a part of the country that there aren't any builders. so, i have a fab buddy that can build but i need a plan to get started.

Welcome aboard. Glad you found us. You're gonna love it here. Lots of great infomation and advice. Not to mention the folks are very friendly

and always willing to share. Sorry I can't help on the stick burner as I have a gasser and electric. But again,

Smokininoregon , welcome to the Forum... keep us posted on the build and post any questions . Lots of Fabricators here to advise you.

I took the easy route (since I'm old and can't crawl around antmore) and ordered one :

Just want to let you know, I moved your thread over to the "Smoker Builds" forum, I think you wll get a lot more exposure to the topic over here. Roll Call is pretty much just for introductions so when you get a minute go back to Roll Call and tell us a little about yourself so we can give you a big SMF Welcome! Thanks!

I found the plans I used on a website called instructables, changed a few things on mine. Here's a link to it.

What do you guys think of a rectangle cook chamber? Also, I was thinking of fabbing the cook chamber with 1/8" steel and firebox made of 3/16" steel.

Round works better, trust me, unless your doing a very large diameter, the shape of the rectangle works against you. Easier to fabricate a round or square cooking chamber.

 

[smokingnoregon]

i'm wanting to do a 30" diameter. i figured it would give me more rack space with a 30"x60".if i don't do a 30"x60" i would do 26"x72" with just a single rack. what's your thoughts? i was also going to attach my drawings but it says i don't have permission. how do i get permission?
