He can't marry them in the garage or he's gonna have a really nice indoor garage smoker since the door is only 7 feet tall.

Hey now no fare since I am without a computer these days. But I should get it back today I hope.

Looks like you found out how to add pics to the site mike.
Sorry about last night, i stayed at work till 7 30 and when i got home I crashed out big time. The wife woke me up at 10 30 and said if I was coming to bed I better move my but or I was gonna be left down stairs. NOT A lol moment.

Mike, if you have the pics on photo bucket then you can look at the thumbnail view, move the mouse down to where the little box that says img.

Highlight this box and copy.

Then just paste it right into your reply box where you are making your post.

Look at me I'm a typing fool and this is from my phone. LOL. I just hooked up my bluetooth keyboard and mouse linked to my phone. Now I am just waiting on the car dock for it. It makes the phone just like the computer but portable.

Oh My.... LOL

Future Mike. Maybe stick to about 8 or 10 pics per post. Maybe even 5. It will make the pages load faster especially for the folks that still have dial up LOL Future Mike theres still a few out there that can't get highspeed.

Ill PM frank and seesee if he wants to break up the pics. I'll check them out here is a little while and see how its going.

You mean like this. LOL
This is the opening from the cook chamber to the warmer/chicken cooker.



Or this???
The grate.




A shot looking toward the firebox.



Up close chicken damper closed.



Up close chicken vent open.



The hanging upper shelf.



And once again.



Now with the shelf lifted.

[mike]

still cant figure out how to add my captions for my pictures.

The chicken vent handle.



Both the chicken vent handle and the fire to cook area damper handle.



The stack extending to the grate level, kinda looked like the mouse hole in the wall from the old toons (Tom and Jerry) LOL only you would remember that Mike LOL.



A better shot. And some handy work with the ESAB plasma cutter.



Mike.....looking a little wore out. Is the cooker kicking your tail??

[Tom_Heath]

What do ya all think?????

I grew up with Mike, I'm kinda helping him out with the computer posting LOL It seems he has way way better skills with wood and metal then he does with the computer. Just saying.

I just wanted to clarify that so that you all realized this was actually Mikes build and not mine. I think he's getting pretty close to having to have a fire. Sorry Mike, I havent had time to check out Picassa's site to see if I can find the (img) tags to make posting a little more easy.

[mike]

Thanks for the help Tommy I am computer illerate lol
