Not sure if the water pan was necessary.

Went I come to Calgary to visit sister I know I will have to take your smoker home with me ... Well done.

With all of the fab capabilities you have available, when you have a “back side seam” like I see inside your firebox, (which is about the only unfinished welded seam on your build pictures) do you have a way of purging, or otherwise protecting it from oxide formation? I purge all of my tube stuff, and have a glove box for little things, but I was just wondering, as most everything looks so pretty...

Not worried about it on the inside of a smoker.

Not super concerned about it on the inside of a smoker.

Me neither, I was just looking for fabrication tips...

Excellent work!
I, of course, am jealous

 

[Graymac]

Lol. You too can build one.

I have as much argon and three-phase electrons as I could reasonably want.

Unfortunately, my floor space is such that I don’t have room for a big hydraulic shear and press brake, so I kinda think I’m out of your league. That being said, a guy can always wish...

Looks really great so far!

Ask Santa. Lol

Nice work.. Hope you post some pics of this rig in operation.

Looking at something like that makes me realize just how bad I am at metal work. ;)

 

[SmokinAl]

WOW!
Nice work!
