DP BUILD SPRING 2017

Roamingbirdbbq · Post by **Roamingbirdbbq** » April 23rd, 2017, 11:00 pm

Hey guys. New to the forum. Been building various insulated verticals over the past few years. This is my second gravity feed. Sold my last one about 4 years ago, missed it since. I made a friend that owns high tech fab shop, so decided to let his machines do the cutting on my sheets metal. I am a hobby welder. Here's my weekend progress. All cutting done on angle and box tube. Some insulation stuffing and a little fab. Please chime in with any tips.

Do you have more pics or plans for the vertical trailer smoker? I would love to build one for myself.

Looking good. Nice work. And braking the CC saves heaps of welding and grinding...

Question...
Ok to use galvanized nipples for air intake and drain? Easier to find than black.

The general consensus is to avoid gal on smokers.

I had to get the local fab shop to put a thread on some pipe for my mini, being in a country area I couldn't get them either.
