A gentleman approached me about redoing his cooking trailer. Basically he had a direct cook cooker that was made out of very thin metal (16gauge) We talked and decided to take a 250 gallon tank and build him a direct cook cooker to be used with charcoal and wood. I generally do not like to work on a trailer that has already been built because they are not up to my standards. I basically redid most of the trailer when I got into to it I could not stop just could not let it leave, unless it was up to my standards and I try and set em high. Me and Tyler are the only ones that touch our products and that is just the way it is. The challenge for me initially was I wanted to leave both endbells on and have acess to the grates and in doing so let it look like a craftsman did it. So we came up with a plan
Original setup
The beginning of the revamp
the back had wood in it I foud out why it was covering up a mess
starting the charcoal grate access
we bought this new machine last week and Tyler finaaly let dad use it
some welds with the new mig
the top grate is fixed and only 14 inches wide
charcoal and wood access
stack damper we made the stack look like a chimney
before i painted it
finished product
Bobby bobo was happy so I was happy
I always show what Tyler is up to.... Still building bumpers we help each other out kind fun
Tyler spraying abumper
we built boxes and bumper for this truck
just another bumper
This what Ashley Tyler girlfriend does while we work
..
that is a big deer for around here.
Thanks for looking, thanks to those who are praying for my wife, she starts chemo next thursday..... Keep on praying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And God bless... I hope I did not get the pics out of sequence I struggle with a computer give me a welder and I do just fine LOL!!!!!
A fellow brethern asked about a pig so we cut this out and sent to him, not bad for freehand on 16 gauge stainless
