When I start the smoker, I'll let the temp get up to 375-400 degrees to clean it out a bit, then bring it back down to my cooking temp. Yours is looking great!

i noticed you had the grates what i would call upside down, not trying to tell you how to do you build but i would put the square down and on the inside of you angel iron you could put a small pice of rod 1/2 way out to keep from pulling the grate out to much, then for removal just lift up on the back of the grate a little and you can fully remove, Thats the way I make mine just I would hate to see a grate full of food hit the dirt bc it was pulled out to much

Nice build, Phrasty. The point made about the safety of making sure the LPG is cleared is a great segment. There are places up here that will basically "steam clean" the interior of the tank for a small price.
Keep up the great work!

Hi everyone. Poured with rain all day today.. Didn't really get much done. I did get a new cutting tip for my oxy-fuel torch... was messing with it a bit to see if I could get the hang of cutting with it... Yah... not so easy. Any of you vets out there have any tips on torch cutting? Tip height? Trade secrets as to what to look for?? lol . Eh... Just practice I guess. I ended cutting some steel I had to size for the firebox baffle. Here's a pic of my cuts... Don't laugh!!! (too hard)

Thank you! I'm also building a grill for my neighbor. So I might throw up some pics of that build in here too rather than making another thread. When it rains it pours... 2 builds going at once. Cheers!! |

Great stuff Phrasty! I'm really impressed so far, and that includes everyone elses suggestions and observations. You all got me feeeling like I need to buy a welder.
And yesterday, I was driving on the freeway.. took an overpass, and there was this huge metal scrap area full of LPG Tanks of all sizes... about 100 of them.. I nearly crashed! Cheers!

Got the "scrap steel" for the firebox today basically free. (food payment) It's 5 sheets, 20" x 48" & 1/4" thick, it has a raised diamond pattern & a slight bit of rust on it but nothing structurally wrong... oh did I mention it was free??? Hopefully I can start cutting the firebox pieces out of it tomorrow and assemble over the weekend. Figured I'd make the FB 20"W x 24"D x 24"H. Any thoughts?
Cheers. |

Great looking rig..
I have to say.. your doing a good job.. I was looking at the inside edge of the doors.. did you also weld the inside edge.. and if you did.. is it causing you a fit issue with the extra metal inside..
Nice job with the cut off wheel grinder.. makes a great cutting tool.. Denis Allan |

That thing is really coming along Phrasty. You're going to be done in no time. As an aside, how much do you love your angle grinder? I affectionately refer to mine as The DeWalt. Every time I do any kind of fabrication it figures prominently.
