New member ready for a build

Post by givalhalla » June 11th, 2015, 2:24 pm

Looking forward to spending a lot of time here while cooking. Have outgrown the Masterbuikt cabinet smoker and looking to do a propane tank build. And suggestions on finding a 120-150 gallon scrap rank in Il or Wisconsin would be appreciated.

Craigslists
Propane/gas company...ask for old/out of service tanks. Some companies are leary due to liability

Getting old propane tanks is getting harder and harder these days. Many states have now band selling old tanks to the public.

When I was a kid square was a bad thing, but now it's awesome, who knew?

Too late....once it's done, it's done and there's no going back

By the way, my last 80 gallon compressor air tank wound up with square top and front square doors... If you don't get a tank, don't fret....I will not go out of my way for tanks any more. If it falls in my lap, great. If not....go square...look up A thread titled .. " Mack ".


Make no mistake, there ain't no powder in this Puff ! And... I'm not really a crazy person but I play one in real life
