is Blowin Smoke!
I use an air hammer with a panel cutting chisel in it, it curls out an 1/8th inch wide ribbon and is very controllable and loud.

A good start here.any body help me with how to insert pictures I built 2 new UDS`s and wish to share
I'm new here and have a question about UDS builds. I don't have any welding skills so I would need to use conduit nuts to fasten the black pipe from the interior of the drum. My question is in regard the conduit nut being zinc plated. Is there any concern that it will give off toxic fumes as it is heated up during the cooking process? My understanding is that galvanized metals and zinc plated metals release toxic fumes when heated. Does it burn off during the first firing and thereby remove the hazard or am I just plain wrong about it being hazardous?
Again I'm very new to this but I'm eager to begin my first UDS and to produce some tasty food. Any help would be appreciated.
To be honest, when I drilled the holes the fit was so tight that I didn't even need the nuts.
Hello everyone!
Newbie smoker here. I am looking into building my own UDS. I really wanted to simply just buy a PBC, but due to the fact that I live in Bahrain, the total cost with shipping will slam me near $600. Getting our hands on a good smoker in general is tough. the Char-Boiled ones here go for around $320 here and that the basically only one available. Lack of good BBQ market here is making me weep. It was a miracle today that somehow we found someone that has a WSM, new and unused for sale at a decent price and we are snagging that one. My friend will keep that while I'll work on a UDS for myself.
In any regards, I have been hunting some drums to make my own. It isn't hard to find some used ones, but finding a place that sells a new one is very hard. (You'd think that the middle east would be abundant with these, but nope. only used and abandoned) Found and stored a few guides on how to make one. Still hunting for high heat resistant paint atm.
A colleague of mine was willing to let me snag these drums one for myself to build , but I wanted to see with you guys if these are good enough to build a UDS with. They (as far as I know) have been used to contain and transport Diesel.
