Well I finally got started on the gravity feed smoker to replace 250gal offset. Chose gravity feed as its only style never owned which will finish out my rotation of cookers
Project goals
-Less than $2k in build.
-Hold two 250lb hogs.
-Removable water pan with internal flange connections to be filled from outside.
-Reverse down draft design like pitmaker vault
-Mount on 27”-30” UTV wheels with wagon steering
-Rear axle with sprocket for remote control mobility due to weight.
-Cook rack 70”x32”
Received first shipment of steel
6 sheets 14ga
4 sheets 1/8”
3 20’ sticks 4x2 for rolling frame
6 20’ sticks of 2x2 for smoker frame
Remainder of steel will come when needed.
Progress thus far.
Frame built
Rear axle locations lasered and bearing mounted
Front wagon wheel assembly built. Copy off TMG design
NOTE: this is also posted on another forum. Will update both
