I am building a new Smoker with a vertical box. Couple of days in to the build and so far so good. The box is only sitting on the smoker hanging from the lift to check it out. I still have a lot of detail work to do before I weld it in place.

Well a few days later and a few more parts build and installed. I have the firebox finished and welded in place. Build both doors and fitted in place. I do have to adjust the hinges on the big door they pulled back a little while I welded them in place. I have the upright sitting in place and a few short welds holding it in place. Welding will be done in the morning when it is just a little cooler.

Work continues on. I have welded the ends over the fire box and the bottom of the upright in place and have started to clean up the smoker. All the doors are now working and cleaned up. The rails for the grates are in place and the pipes are welded in place for the rib racks. I have the handles brushed out and removed so I can clean up the rest. I have the air intake finished on the firebox.

I am done with the smoker. All I have to do is paint the lone star silver to match the rest of the smoker.

nice job!!! Grill grates look aswesome!!

might i make a suggestion

the shelves... if you pull them out too far, they will tilt and possibly spil some food you have on the shelf..

might consider putting a stop about 3 inches back from the front of the rails on the shelf..

all it is is an L bracket welded above the shelves, spaced the same depth as the thickness of the shelves

send me your e mail and i'll send you an example of one that I built
