Haven't gotten much time to work on the smoker lately, but I have gotten an hour or two here and there to work on it. It's starting to look like a smoker, and getting close.
The cooking grates. They come out in 2 pieces for cleaning. Decided to go with conventional grating instead of the stainless for the cooking grates.
The grate on the outlet side goes all the way over, and you can see how far in I made the stack protrude in.
Got the door on, hinges welded on, and the handle mounted up.
Starting to look like a smoker.
You can see the water fill pipe I added for filling the water tray(had an extra piece of 1/2" pipe, figured what the heck).
Still have to decide if I want to leave the door as is, or add a counter balance to it so I don't have to open it so far to keep it open. Also need to add on end racks, and build my 2nd rack to go inside the cooking chamber. Hoping to maybe light a fire in it tommorrow to get some smoke in it.
