Man that’s awesome. Where did you get the latches and hinges for the doors. And did you weld the top (or side) lid shut or are you using a ring? I think the only thing you didn’t think of was a smoke stack to let the smoke out more effeciently

That is by far one of the best grills I have seen. And it is the perfect size for a super large cast iron grill plate that I had picked up for the single can version. I definitely want to build one. Any chance on those CAD templates others have asked for?

Looks really cool, how well did it cook? Was it easy to regulate the heat?

Quit good idea of using 55-gallon drums as a building block. You’ve done a great job. Excellent work, keep it up!

Hey,
I just bought a drum that contained alcohol based soup with low viscosity. Is this drum good to use if burned out well?

hey there and thanks for the post – I’ve most definately learned something interesting from here. I did however have a few technical problems with this blog, because I needed to refresh the page several times before I could get it to load properly. I was wondering if your hosting is adequate for your needs? Not that I am complaining, but slow loading times will sometimes lower your position in the search engines and can damage your quality score if using Adwords. Anyhow I’m going to add your RSS feed to my email and will look out for more of your informative posts. Please update this again sometime soon…
