New double barrel build part 2
I posted a picture of my progress. Hope everyone can see it. I decided to go with 2 55 gal barrels and 4" sq. tubing for the chimneys and the chambers between the two barrels.
I ran into a problem. One barrel was much thinner gauge than the other and since I am not a professional welder I had a hell of a time welding to it. I'm using a wire welder on low heat and it still burned right through every time I tried.
Now I'm not a professional welder but I am a professional Jerry-rigger. Lets just say it will still work!!
I thought about buying the barrel stove kit from vogelzgang but I wanted to fab everything myself. In hindsight I wish I would have bought it it would have saved me a ton of cussing and a lot of time!!
Anyone out there thinking about building one of these double barrel smokers and you have questions give me a holler I will be glad to tell you what I would have done different.
I hope to be completely finished with this beast in a few days. I will post more pics.
Thanks from a brother smokersigpic

I built one lat year, use it as much as possible. I can weld, but opted for the stove kit plus a few extra parts. If I could remember how to post a pic., I would. http://www.smoked-meat.com/forum/sho...61&postcount=7A different kind of "special"

What diameter wire you using? .035 is the norm. Try switchin to .023. Should have no problem at all welding thin gauge with that.
