Looking forward to it

Got a bit furthur along today, I sure hope I can get it done by Tuesday so I can burn it in and season it for Thursday. Got the firebox all welded on, sealed up, and the door on it(still have to build a latch for it). Got it upright, so it is looking like a smoker now.

Heres the smoke chamber before I closed it up.


And here it is all closed up.


The legs are all welded on, and supports welded in.


Got it upright, firebox door on, and the wooden skids for it to sit on bolted on.


Firebox door open, still have to decide how to build a latch for it and straighten the door out some as it pulled during welding.

Lookin awesome!
I think it would be hella cool to make the latch like an old wood stove latch with the spring coils on the end

Fixed the pic. As for the handle, I don't really have time to order one right now, so I'm going to have to build something. That, and I'm trying to use as much scrap material as I can.

sure... I would have been quite disappointment if you ordered it!

just figured some pics might help inspire

Have you thought about a gasket around the door or just gonna let it draft?

an oven door gasket would work

going to try it as is for now, but i can buy a thin 1/8" gasket later on if needs be. need to get a close up of my firebox hinges. made them out of 5/8" round bar and 1/2" black iron pipe. tsc wante $13 a piece for decent hinges, thats about what i will have in all of them, and they are much heavier.
