Square Door Fab question

Post by dbear » February 9th, 2015, 1:37 pm

Hey guys....I am currently building my RF smoker with square doors, which is a copy of TQ's design. I have one side tacked up but I am trying to figure out the best way to get the other side piece square and plumb with the side I already have done. Not sure if there is an easy way, but I just want to get it correct. Any suggestions/ help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

First have the tank or pipe level, then the two end pieces should have right angles on them the top should be level and the door side should be plumb. If all these are in place it is exactly correct.

I'm confused. Aren't you building the frame as one solid piece?

One piece??? Are you talking about the frame for the doors?? My original question was about putting the actual sides of the cooking chamber on and how to get them identical on each side.
