    You can snag a load leveler to help adjust the pipe level front to back, they're fairly inexpensive but it adds lift height to the whole setup. Just food for thought. Another great video as always, I'm really curious to see how this build turns out.

    Fab tip for free... Be careful when you build something on a floor that is not actually level. Using a level on a floor surface which is not level will yield wonkyness. Either level up the base or use a suitable square. I spent years designing waterpark elements and the ol weld shop overlooked that basic concept more than once and built wonky. If you dont have a level floor, level the base element and you can use either square or level. Garage floors are poured to include about 2 inches of slope by the way.

    Hey Brad can I offer a tip. When dealing with a propane tank, open the valve and empty. Then crank the valve off with your adjustable wrench so it is open ended. Then proceed to cut. Or purge with argon but that can be pricey.

  • @Goblues22

    Ive always used a piece of angle iron to draw my lines after I find the top or 45. Just lay it on the pipe and it is automatically parallel with the pipe regardless of if it is level. Only need to mark at one spot then the angle iron should give you a straight line without have to "connect the dots".

    Really enjoying this series -- I wish it had been available when I was stumbling my way through learning how to weld while building my pit. One tip for others who do this, which is partially from the Franklin book and partially from my own experience: Don't fully cut out the doors right away. Leave some tabs on the sides so the door remains perfectly aligned with the cook chamber, then install your hinges and the top and bottom flat bars to ensure the door will have a tight fit when closed. For hinges, *keep them simple,* especially if you're a novice metalworker. I tried something fancy that was way behind my skill level, almost dropped the door on my head when the support contraption I had devised failed spectacularly, and had to go to Plan B. Simple piano hinges ended up working great (you can get them at most welding supply stores), but the door has never had a good fit and always leaks smoke.

    Mr. Bradly Robinson, I noticed on your first BBQ build you did years ago you welded a curved end fire pit to a curved end cooking chamber. I'm going to do the same with my build and am wondering what's the best way to figure out where to cut and weld and stuff. Thanks in advance for any tips you may provide.

    • @wisdomoutdoors9872
      @wisdomoutdoors9872 Рік тому

      When I built my first propane tank reverse flow smoker, I just mocked up the basic location of the chamber and firebox, getting the curved ends as close together as possible. I then transposed a line from the top horizontal surface of the firebox curve using a sharpie marker taped to a straight edge ( ghetto, right?) to the cook chamber and the same from the chamber to the firebox underneath. This gives you somewhat of a baseline which can be adjusted according to your desired throat size. Think “football” shape. Compound curves are a special kind of mindf**k wizardry! Lol. Remember, cardboard templates are your friend for trial and error cutting patterns. Take your time and you’ll get it purrrrfect! Enjoy it!

    When lifting any heavy object with a ratchet strap or spanset, the strap should be loose. Ideally a 30 to 45 degree angle for the strap to hook connection. Tighting strap like a bow string puts very high stress on the ratchet strap. Cheers
