I’m lucky enough to have 2 facilities to work out of and my boss is doing the welding for me ! One of them does aluminum fabrication and the other steel.

Thank you all, I have a lot of help.
Tacked up the fire box tonight.

Got it thanks, I am leaning that direction. Thanks for the info on the rag, I would have never guessed that would happen

Nice, what is BLO? Love the Texas shape one the door .

Not a lot of fabrication tonight, but I was able to shear all the metal for the fire box. Will post pics when finished.

That’s a nice looking rig! Love the finish

Do you have any pictures with the linseed oil?

It’s kind of a build design, appreciate the suggestions. If you leave the metal raw how do you protect it?
You make have solved my door stop problem, I save the part of the ring I cut for the fire box, I can give the ring back to the tank.

Thanks, when you say leave the ends, do you mean leave the rings on them? I think the color difference is from leaving them in my truck stacked on top of each other and it snowed!

Got a little more work done tonight, mocked the doors up and test fitted, also tacked the stack collector in place.

A little more cutting tonight for the fire box. Picked up and old boat trailer also.

Turned out awesome ! I have a beef/venison brine that I use.

Working on the stack collector today.

Cut the doors out tonight !
Doing a little at a time.

It’s only 30” , estimated about 240 gal. Thanks for the hinge tip.

Well it’s been a long time coming, but I’ve finally got started this week! I ordered hinges so we can start cutting doors next week

Thank you

Is this a better design/location? How large should the shadow plate be?
I lowered the top of FB to be 2" lower then BP.

Good morning,
I'm looking to start a build. Please see attached drawing, looking for suggestions and comments as to FB size and BP location. I think i used the calculator correctly for all the sizes.

Thanks

This is the tank I was able to get my hands on and a sketch of what I'm thinking of doing with it. Do we see any major problems with the size or design. I tried going thru the calculator and worked things out for the tank part, But I want to be able to use the WC as part of the smoker as well. Not s...

Thank you

I have the plans for the Legacy 4800 smoker.
1. Can you put a baffle between the CC and the WC and smoke thru both at the same time?
2. If I have access to a 30" dia. propane tank can I just scale the drawings up and everything will work?

Thanks

Thanks Big T, those are all great questions, I don’t mind tending a fire, not a lot of good cooking wood in the area, on average when the family is home it’s a total of 9 people and I would like to move it on occasion.

Thank you for the add. I’m thinking about building a smoker and ran across this site. I’ve been smoking for about 2 years now and have out grown my present smoker, I’m leaning towards building in lieu of buying. I’m also see all kinds of info about reverse flow smokers and have become interested in ...
