I used 1/2 inch in mine, but it was free so that worked very well for me it takes 30 minutes to heat up to 250 and it stays there with two 1/4 splits of apple wood every 20 minutes. My pit is heavy but trailers very well its right at 1600 pounds.

Hi Doug, Fri,Sat or Sunday's are better for me

You will be fine with that tank, thats what mine was it works great. Franks plans were great. you can do a search on here for my build, I havent had any luck finding tanks here in washington the scrappers seem to have that market. Im not far from you I live in Royal City

Well done Frank

So Rick I'll start sending my used foil your way its one owner and only cooked on, on sundays by a wanna be smoker

The main reason for the pans for me is it saves on cleanup even though my reverse flow plate is lined with foil, I also use some of the drippings back in the meat for moisture, I must own stock in the aluminum company cause I use lots of it.

This smoker is so easy to cook on, Frank needs to create a tastavision thread.

Paint is done will finish fenders later this summer, this trailer was a welding trailer so they used the fenders as there bench wow are they beat up. unfortunately Im too busy for a couple weeks to get some meat on it.

Thats funny dc.

Thanks guys, the hex pipe is a roller from a innes bean pickup off of a combine.

No sorry dc i wish i could still free hand cut like that but i shake to much now just traced around it 1/4 inch bigger then ground it smooth, gettin close to paint this weekend then burn some pig flesh and drink a brew to break it in.

This one is for you Rick a 6 sided damper for the smoke, no confusion that way.

Got enough done to make fire today. http://i1155.photobucket.com/albums/p556/billybarger1/IMG_1438.jpg http://i1155.photobucket.com/albums/p556/billybarger1/IMG_1440.jpg http://i1155.photobucket.com/albums/p556/billybarger1/IMG_1439.jpg http://i1155.photobucket.com/albums/p556/billybarger1/IMG_1443....

Sticking with the cast wheel theme for the firebox to chamber adjustment looks like about six adjustments.

You know Rick you have hit on something here she really likes it when I go on winter shift Im not home when she is . But as long as I support her sewing room habit its all good

I got a chance to try your beans a few weeks ago man those were great and a huge hit with everyone Ill be doing them again for easter with the family

Well I made a little progress last weekend I scored a free trailer and the wife let me buy a metal cutting saw gotta love it she supports my habit

Rick I never thought of rub before will have to try that, or maybe some creole seasoning with brown sugar hmmmm gotta go shopping.

That macca salmon is my favorite.

Thanks guys I use Grill Mates pork rub but I spice it up a bit with dried and ground jalapenos and red peppers along with the sweet baby rays its got a little bite, but with the bbq sauce it balances out. I put the rub on the night before I smokem. Frank Im gonna smoke a few ribs this weekend along ...
