New Smoka!!!!!
Custom BW Gater came in last week. Picked it up from the metal guy yesterday. Had a custom cart built for it. I wanted to keep it as compact as possible for transporting between competitions. The overall width is 42". The top of the cooker is about 60" so it sits at a great working height. I found the 10" flat free wheels at home depot. They work really well. On the Gater, I had a permanent water pan put in rather than the removable water pan (I prefer the perm pan). I also had the fire box modified...the standard box is about 3" inches deep. This one is about 4 3/4" - 5" deep....we had to trim it down a bit to fit inbetween the box runners and added the sides...also had to invert the box rails to sit down a little bit. Not sure of the coal holding capacity now, but it is a bunch. I'll measure it tonight and let you know....burned it in last night. Gonna smoker SOMETHING tonight on it!!!!!!

Very nice I really like what you did to the fire box. I do like the Gators but I think it would be too much to lug from my shed to the house for a cook. Ground is not even either. I do not move things as well as I use too. I vacilate between the Extended Party, Guru Onyx and periodically think of the Fatboy. One of these days I will make up my mind sell my Meadowcreek and pull the trigger
