Another BUFORD Build - "Steampunk" Theme..
Decided I needed another BUFORD but wasn't sure what theme I was going to use this time around. I decided on an industrial "steampunk" theme on this one.
Bought some old thermo's, boiler grate, badges, etc. Still have a ways to go but here's the start; |

Cool. With that cone on the top and attached fins it kind of has a "Rocket Man" theme!

Cool! Looks like something from a Tim Burton film.

Thanks all!
In the end, it's going to look like an old industrial drum that has had product bubbling over and dripping down the sides. |

Your drums are always top notch. I still say the Army themed one is the coolest drum smoker I have ever seen. One question where can I buy the fitting you use to run your thermometer cable through the drum. I want to add a digital thermometer to my WSM and from my research that seems to be the best way.
