Smoker gets some new walking shoes!

Working skin on the outside went well. Stuffing with insulation. Putting 12 ga corner trim on. Got to use the new jet break. Lots and lots of welding.

Back to work on what I really love building!

Been away for a couple weeks but been busy.

Few of the projects holding up production of Smoker. Been focused on getting projects done by the end of the school year. Enjoy a little non-smoker eye candy.

Glad to have you aboard! I am current building the same smoker. It is a fun and rewarding build. Behemoth is a understatement.

Little more progress.
Planning on running 1/2 pipe from ditial control modafication box, into the cook chamber. Is 1/2 I.D. pipe enough to run probs into cook chamber?

Thanks for any input!

few more pics! Is there a way to rotate pics?

Good question. The lettering is permanent marker so it should clean off during paint prep. Also, any of the panels with lettering that can be faced in towards insulation will be.

Here are a few more pics.

That explains the farm shop comment. Hope you've got good students. If you don't mind my asking, what part of the country are you in? Wish we had anything like that when I was growing up. About the best we had was an oxy/acetylene torch and a tombstone welder. Now my brother (he's got the family fa...

Everyone likes pictures. Here are a few of the table working. I had the table label everything. Then cut out the parts.

Started this build a month ago. I really just wanted to build a smoker using a cut file and plasma table. The table is JD2 Mad 4x4 water table. Its max cut is 51"x52” pushing the limits of what this table can cut. LIMITS; it would be possible to cut the side of the water table. Some of the sheet met...

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by “it pulls hard?” I have not put the big reverse smoker on the scales but she is heavy. I built it with a lot of tongue weight. There is no suspension. Once again done on purpose, don’t want this smoker going very far from home. So with the combination of the he...

The big trailer pulls pretty hard. Max speed about 35mph. Small pulls easy also max speed about 35mph. Both trailer smoker/grill design this away on purpose to keep the close to home. Both of these smoker/ grill belong to the FFA chapter used for fundraising. However other organizations like to use ...
