Look i'm almost done!!!!!

So, I have been trying to make my first smoker out of a 30 gal compressor. I just need to make legs, build a smoke box out of a 5 gal air tank, and build some legs for it... also some really cool smoke stacks:mullet:

Nice work.  I wish I knew how to weld and work with metal.

Make sure the main tank seals tight.

MOAR!

Where did you get the tanks from?
My car is a gravity hybrid.  The gasoline engine gets me up the hills, and gravity gets me down.

So I did a trial run, and the pork butt came out awesome. It stayed at 300* for six hours, and I was able to turn off the gas and just feed it logs. I cant wait to do some ribs, tomorrow I will be doing some turkey . What do you guys think. I still need to mount some expanded metal under the smoker to hold my wood and get a hose extention to mount the tank,  these are a ton of work... and some smoke stacks

I'm thinking we need to taste test the product to make sure it comes out okay :grinno:
