My fault - just caught up in the excitement of the build process. I 've been reading the thread and keep wanting to reply along the way but then look at the posts and see they were written years ago. Great thread!

I liked this drum because it has a 2" bung down low so I'll be able to remove it and shake down the ashes.

Finally!!!! I have been reading since last weekend. Wow lots of good info on this forum. I have been BBQin' for a long time but never smoked much. MY Father In Law has supposedly located me some food grade barrels for $5 a piece. I'm not sure if they will be lined or not they have supposedly had plastic bags in them. We shall see, it may be a week or 2 before they show up. I can handle the fab stuff no problem just need to get the parts collected. My plan is to build more than one when I get started. Thanks for all of the info. I'll post up once my barrels get here.

Well Poor Piggy 2 is finally getting shelves from a donated Brinkman grill I had for parts. I'll do the other side tomorrow.

And what did you use in the side of your drum where you run the probe cables through the side?
Great looking drum! David |

The thermometers came from a store called Ocean State Job Lot they were $6.00 each and they work great. The things I ran the probes through are called aluminum cable clamps available from electrical suppy house.

BigAL I made them from perforated angle iron then bent them in a bit so they would be a little more square on the drum.

Dang Skidder, all of those mods are spot on! I love the little table that you mount your therms to. and the fold down shelf is a nice touch too. I badly need to finish up all the small parts to make mine complete. Mine doesn't even have a handle yet... but it still cooks :)
