Here is my journey of having a smoker built for me. Enjoy! Started with a 34 in diameter, 6ft long pipe. Shooting for an Aaron Franklin type smoker.

After much research I decided to go with a Tel-tru thermometer. Got the 3 in face with 4 in stem. Can't wait to use it!

Went with two 30 inch doors and will have two levels of racks. Should have plenty of room for food. Doors sprung a bit so he added braces on inside lid. Starting to look like a smoker now.

Plenum came out nicely. Stack is 6 inch diameter and 51 inches long with 39 inches above top of cook chamber.

Only thing left to buy is high temp paint. A friend's work is going to sandblast it for me for free and another friend will help me paint it.
 
Looks like that will make you a nice smoker...thanks for sharing!
 
Thank you sir! I can't wait. Won't be long now. I really want to see how well it holds temps.
 
Inside view of firebox with lip so grease doesn't get into firebox. I do have a 1 1/2 ball valve for a drain.

Here's my smoker almost done. Have a few details to iron out before sandblasting and painting including adding some weight in the front.
