Being in Thailand I am at the mercy of my wife and her translation of what I say.... I must say she does not translate everything I say, but so far Teety after many hand gestures trying to show him what i want things to do has seemed to grasp it well. In the plan cooking grates were not seen, so I went and bought the expanded metal and showed him what I wanted to slide out, and have tried to explain I want a cage for my fire pit that slides and stays off the bottom.
I figure that after I get it home, I can have a local welder come take care of the tweaks i want done. I need to test out this thing and see what it does.
If the girls are helping with the build, may wanna have em find some boots. The slag gets hot on the toes if not. I think you and Teety will have a nice cooker once its all done.

The girls were just modeling... If an Asian sees a camera they pose by instinct LOL!!! Actually I was trying to give some folks visual of the size but for some reason I don't think it worked out that way... I will be able to put a whole pig in it any way...
Final pics of the build. Now awaiting a truck to bring it to my house in the village, and awaiting the arrival of high temp paint from Bangkok. Morepics coming soon. We have a cook off scheduled for Songkran (Water Festival) to welcome the rainy season. I will be smoking a whole pig, Boston Butt, and ribs. My challenger is my neighbor a local Thai. I will also drag out homemade coconut cream, and chocolate cream pies. He does not know that yet.Pics of the cook off and Songkran festivities will be posted. It starts on 13 April.
From where I'm sitting that looks like it will work great!
Good luck on the rainy season thing that I can't pronounce ... I bet you'll have some pretty stiff competition - but all in fun...

I read a post on here about seasoning with coconut oil. My wife was interested and wanted to help out. Here in Thailand you don't just run down to the store and buy Coconut oil. She said she would make it. I was intrigued so I said Ok. She got coconut milk and set off makking it. It took two batches to make enough. I will let you know how it turned out.
