Got the smoker on the trailer and got the base mounts put in place. I'm gonna block off the sides kinda like framing them in so I don't hafta clean way back inside the hole under the smoker. I'm gonna put a Santa Maria style grill right behind the smoker. It's gonna be cool.

Thats awesome, whats lisa say about Joey running the forklift??? LOL

Hey Frank?? Why ya running those verticals downhill??

Not that it hurts anything for the stack but be careful if its structural, its way easy to make a nice looking weld that may have danger hiding inside.

Just Saying.....

Been there done that and had one or two fail the destructive testing.

But dang man, your sure rocking that thing out.

No No, not a thing wrong with running them on the stacks..LOL

Just pokin ya man.

After I said it I figured I better clarify what can result from a downhill if your not really watching whats happening with your welds. And it sure happens fast running downhill.

Poke Poke!!!!!!!!
