Smoker build from a safe

[rickah]

Hi Everybody.

I used an old safe to build my smoker.  I scavenged parts from anywhere I could and this is the final result.  

I made a cleaver for the door handle.  The rims were fabricated from antique split rims to which I welded in spokes and a hub.

We have eaten from it a few times and it works very well.  I am using lump charcoal but getting it all going with some competition briquettes from Kingsford.

Awesome!, when you're done cooking, nobody can steal the priceless brisket inside!

Too cool! Everytime I see a gun safe the wheels start turning on how can that be made into a smoker? :biggrin:

That's pretty slick! Nice work.

Care to share any inside pics?
