I have noticed some people will angle the legs of their smokers so the bottom of the legs are wider than the top. Now I know there is no set/required/specific angle to these legs but what would be a good angle to mount those?

You can never have too many hammers.
Re: Angled legs
Let me correct my earlier post. After "trying" a portractor along a deer feeder if you don't want to worry about long pipe legs and risk tripping over them try around 130 degrees. Like I mentioned before I'm not the best at angles
