Here it is framed up

And concrete board going in.

Time to mud the inside it took 50 lbs of hi-temp groat

Now the wheels and damper pipes that are 2" o.d. 304 stainless. The wheels are on a 3"x2" angle iron frame that is lag bolted to the smoker.

OK on it's wheels time to add thermocouples, run wire, chimney and insulate


I didn't take any pictures of the insulation but I used 3 1/2" Styrofoam then wrapped it with plastic and put up the siding.

After sealing the siding its time to add the electrical boxes, controller and run the liquid-tight.

Now its time to add the scr's the control relay, amp meter, shunt and a 12 volt power supply. The shunt and power supply are for the amp meter.

Here are the heaters. I made a frame for them and when I wired them I left enough wire so they lift out and sit on the ground. Makes cleaning easy.

The cover for the heaters.

Here is a pan on one of holders there is another above that one.

The door is installed. It is a steel door 3" thick and foam insulated.

It's time for a test run and it was a success!

Add the trim and a smoke generator at the left side of smoker. and it's all done.

I could not have built this without my helper here she is taking a chocolate break.

Thanks for taking the time to view my smoker Trosky
