My brother and I decided to build a smoker out of a well water pressure tank we had laying around. Thought I'd share some of the pictures throughout the build. This is the first smoker we've build so their was a lot of trial and error, but overall it turned out great.

This was kind of an after thought which is why we did it after paint.

I wonder if the fire box gets the trailer boards on the side a little hot?

Looks great, I'm jealous of the tools and skills.

Thanks for all the compliments. I still have plans to build a table to the left of the smoker as well as putting a toolbox on the backside.
