Default BUFORD Drum Smoker - Build #8 - Steam Engine Theme

Good friend is a rail contractor and wants a BUFORD drum smoker with a railroad theme. Got started last week. Some cool history, the rail is from Carnegie Steel, around 1901 vintage.

I've been fabricating some theme based drum smokers over the years. They feature adjustable racks, cone top, side box fire basket access, extended valve adjusters, side tables, etc. Souped up UDS for the most part.

Search BUFORD on this forum if you like.

I kept Steampunk and Rat Rod for myself. Rat Rod has been the tester for my diffuser, smoke injector, rib-o-lator, etc. I use both regularly, still turn out good Q and are great smokers!

I've always liked the Off Road Camo BUFORD, want that one back someday.
