We finished up the inner sleeve so now we can control how long the smoke stays in the upper part of the fire box. Its completely adjustable all the way down to cooking grates. The chrome stack will have a damper up high to help us control draw where needed. Pics coming for that a little later. Need to get this sucker off the to sandblaster.
Triple T, I cannot say quite how much I have enjoyed reading your post with your attention to detail and all the posts and pics. It really makes it especially interesting for mere mortals like myself who may know how to weld but at nowhere near your level ! :clap2::clap2::clap2:
I cannot wait to see the it in daylight! I also look forward to seeing it perform.
Just out of interest how low does the smoke stack typically go in a reverse offset smoker? I am currently looking at a Lang and I did not realize the smoke stack went that low, anyone?
I really like your adjustable design!

Waiting to see what the printer comes back with for a price. Figure you want a regular one and not a baby doll version?
As for the chimney/stack I wanted the nice Looking chrome stack we have all come to lust over from the jambo pits on tv. At the same time I wanted to experiment with a larger and more adjustable stack on this build. It may get changed again but I am pretty sure it will work like the smaller version I did before. Stale smoke and being able to raise it high enough off the rack is my only concern. Again easily fixed with the plasma cutter too. I purposely left the design of the inner adjustable sleeve long. Just in case.
Thank you. I am particularly interested in your lower / variable chimney stack design and whether this is similar to other reverse flow offset smokers from Lang and Meadow Creek or whether this is a totally new approach.
Are there any Lang / Meadow Creek owners out there who could confirm the location of the vent / chimney stack on the inside of the cooking chamber on their smokers and perhaps post a pic? The chimney / vent on a Lang appears to come from the highest point of the cooking chamber.
I am currently thinking of buying one and one of the criticisms I have read is that they burn a lot of wood / charcoal and I was wondering if perhaps this approach will have any effect on this. Perhaps this is what you wish to test...
I hope you take it as a compliment when I copy your backlit stencil cut on those fenders for my next project (in the distant future) :grin: !
Every time I look at your build, I look at mine and think, "man I gotta do this, do that, do the other thing..." We're kinda settling in some areas to conserve cash and your build is makin' me feel bad about it!
My build is only solid until someone walks by yours and then all of the sudden I look amateur! Yep..I've decided..I think you're gonna need to stop updating us.. It's detrimental to my build:razz:!
For the 1,000th time..you got a really pro build here. I can't wait to that bad boy(girl) in action!
I know I know. but when you're building at the same time others are, you always compare ! (at least I do)
I am legitimately amped by your build, though. Very inspirational! I can't remember if you said, but did you plasma cut the lettering or use a jigsaw? or neither?
If you're ever in MO..lemme know!
Picking up the smoker from the paint shop tonight. Can hardly wait to see how it comes out.
Did you figure out why the smoker looked semi- flat rather than gloss?
