Post by KILLSWITCH505 » December 12th, 2011, 12:07 am

i started this bad boy in may of last year :BDHorse: i'm letting it age like a wine barrel

Filling her with CO2 (keep in mind the car im using is a diesel and not gas i would not recommend this method with a gas engine )
Image

First cut
Image

Second cut
Image

Rolled out into the driveway and lit her from here
Image

Thought it needed some more diesel
Image
LOL J/K PRANK PHOTO it was a new can and never been filled

About 4 hours and 4 loads later
Image

To hell with the pit it’s a S’mores oven

Image

Marking a line

Image

Added some 1/4” X 12” strap
Image

Here is a grinder my old man gave me he said he got it in 79 but senility has set in lol one of the best gifts in the world

Ok guys this is what I'm thinking. the RF plate should help even the temps out (thanks K.A.M.) I might go with 3 grates instead of the 2 shown but other then that let me know what you think

So you think that money is the root of all evil. Have you ever asked what is the root of all money?

I Like It! Great concept, I think that could work real well doing the baffle plate that way.
I'll send you a pm bout the FA Builder Program.

Dang man.....My slow azz just realized where NM was lmao sorry i'm slow.

I had hopes that you were closer to the mid west.

I LOVE your propane tank build, its awesome.

Just for the record, so that no one would maybe get hurt.
I see the car exhaust being used to purge the tank.

For future readers, this does not work well with newer cars. Emissions now days gets um clean enough that this isn't a good method. Please dont cut a propane tank until you have done the proper research and are 100% confident of your procedures.

Killswitch, please dont take it that I am knocking your method, its clear that you have spent your share of time under a hood and behind a set of goggles. But rather to keep some guy from going ker pow because his car burns to clean.

You'll notice that I kinda like the smoker terms like Ker-Pow and such.
Just sayin.
