I am guessing it weighs around 500 lbs.

2012-12-22_13-49-24_568.jpg So I finally finished building my new smoker!!! It ended up being a little bigger than I planned and actually ended up being two smokers. My main reason for building a smoker was for making hot venison hot dogs. A batch of hot dogs is usually around 25 lbs and that means...

In order to light wood on fire from radiant heat or convection you would need temperatures well above the smoking range. (direct flame contact different story).

I saw the ones at our local lowes, the one in stock was the rage model, kinda all purpose saw, they also have one the is designed for metal cutting as its main function. Lowes was willing and able to order one for me, priced seemed in line with other suppliers

Just got one for Christmas it is an awesome tool, can't believe I've lived this long without one!! I was planning on buying one made by Evolution but got the Milwaukee for Christmas. Kinda interested in hearing from someone who has the one made by Evolution.

Okay, I am down with the burner change, how 'bout the rest of it? Gonna start building soon. By the way I got one of the Milwaukee metal saws for Christmas!! It kicks ars!!

I finally reduced my thoughts to rough sketches, I am having a hard time posting them here, I scanned them and they are in pdf form, I couldn't get them to load in photobucket please help me

Thanks for the replies, I will work on reducing my thoughts to paper and getting sketches posted soon.

Just bought a new furnace for my workshop so that will be my first project

Guys I need your help!!! First I am a newbie to this smoking thing. (I am embarrassed to admit I have never even owned a smoker) I have used other guy's smokers but that kinda seems wrong. I am planing on building a vertical smoker from scratch. I will use the smoker for hot dogs and other sausages,...
