    I've got an old 100# propane tank that I've been thinking about making a grill out of. It'd only have about a foot of depth if I went with a horizontal design like that, but it'd have a solid 4' of grille length. I like the big tire idea, too. As a blacksmith, I'd have to add some decorative scrolls and the like, but that'd be half the fun.

    Great build, the only thing I would improve is that I don't think the steering will hold up over time.
    If you ad two 8" discs between the upper and lower part. As long as you are going straight there wont be a problem but if you make sharp turns there will be a lot of bending force on one small bolt and some square tubing.

  • @Ridingrules10000
    @Ridingrules10000 2 года назад +6

    Everything about this is awesome. That being said, the engineer in me says you should take a look at your swivel point where the wheels turn. Everything is beefy except that single bolt you have, and it will see quite a bit of bending load if you are moving the pit and hit against a curb or bump. I'd hate to see that beautiful piece of art take a nose-dive onto someone's foot. FYI, I have an air tank that I bought for almost exactly this build and I intend to "borrow" a bunch of your ideas...
    I don't hear "y'uns" very often. Good people 'round there...

    • @johngraves9201
      @johngraves9201 2 года назад +3

      I agree! Did a fantastic job on the smoker but a few upgrades would have it solid as a rock. Definitely need a bushing welded into that square tubing and a matching machined pin with a grease zerk or that thin wall square tubing will eventually wear and make it a pain to steer and move around. At the minimum if the bolt is kept I recommend welding the nut onto it. Constant vibration and turning motions will cause it to come loose and end badly. A thrust bearing on the swiveling surface would be an added plus!

    That’s a cool smoker. The fire department on on we did a poker shoulder smoke back in may we smoked 500 shoulders using old propane tanks.
    One of the best ways we found to get a straight line on the round tank was using a laser level. Love this build!!

    Looks great. My father did something similar with an old fuel barrel. We use it for family events. Only suggestion I would make is to the grill plates with a straight direction metal. We used the expanded metal as well and after multiple uses the diamond shape starts making it harder to pull the meat off

    Did you use a Thrust Bearing to hold the steering in place. If your not sure what I'm talking about, look up Thrust Bearing and you will come across a bearing that looks like a washer. You would need 2 of them to work. one on top and one in between the 2 beams.
