Newby

Post by jburton911 » November 30th, 2020, 8:03 pm

Hi, My name is John And I just started welding last year. I am currently into building a smoker. I am building a 30"x36" x24" square offset smoker with a 24"x24"x24" firebox. I have many questions like How to put together stuff needed for golfcart wheels. So far everything is comming together nicely. Got a new Plasma cutter 2 weeks ago and made a nice fire grate. Here is a few pics of my firebox thus far. This is going to be my winter project.

Welcome to the group.

No experience with golf cart wheels. I would think you could find spindles pretty easily or find a piece of pipe for a axle. Really isn’t going to get a lot of miles so a pretty simple setup should work.
