Awesome drum. Excellent work. Nothing is cooler than having friends over and cooking them some BBQ on a smoker you built. That's all they will want to talk about.
On a side note, I used to live up in Schaumburg. I liked the area quite a bit.

Nice build, not ugly, but not many are. You mind me asking what kind of paint?

All I used was a pizza pan, as the diffuser, and I set a tin pan as a water pan to catch the dripping. I well take a pic tonight for you.

What did you use to sand the inside with? Also after you sanded it, what did you clean it with to remove all the residue from the sand job?

For mine, that I am building now, I did a big burn...then a weed burner burn...then steel wool.
I need to season it now...about to do a search for smoking a fatty?

Man I want to build one but haven't made the plunge the wife probably wouldn't be happy about another smoker build lol but I'm tempted. yours looks good, great job sanding. I found burn barrels at rural supply for $15

That's a great lookin' UDS! Did the weber lid fit perfectly or did you have to do something to the drum to make it fit?

My Weber kettle 22.5" fits perfect on my UDS. I found an off brand lid in the trash I have made work with a little tweaking.

I used a wire wheel on a drill. It actually went pretty fast. Almost all of the residue, I just dump the drum and it came out. I cleaned the inside and outside with denatured alcohol until the paper towel was clean.
