is Blowin Smoke!
Hey All,
So I bought an offset smoker on a trailer a few months ago and its been sitting at my house under a tent. I've gone through 2 tents over the last ~6 months due to rain / wind and I'm ready to move to something more permanent. So I'm looking at having a roof built on onto my smoker so I won't have to worry about it anymore. I have almost ZERO fabrication / DIY skills so I am looking at hiring the job out to a local welder / fabricator. This forum seems to have a good amount of metal workers so I'm wondering if someone can take a look at the following pics and see if they can give me a ballpark figure of what the project should cost so I'm not going into it blind.
Here's what I have :

And here's kind of the idea of a roof I'm looking into :

For what it's worth, were I anywhere near Texas I would just take it back to Johnson Smokers and ask Chad to modify the trailer, but it's a 2400 mile round trip. haha
Thanks for any advice / comments / etc. Cheers all!
