Im living on social security alone .does anybody have pictures of theres. Where do you get the stove grates & grilling grates.Thanks Jim Wayts
 
Welcome to the forum. You can buy the grates at bbq supply stores. Most guys making them seem to end up in the $100 to $200 range depending on how handy they are and how elaborate that want it to be.
 
Nice thing about the vertical drum smokers is you can make em pretty basic and you still get great results.........
 
Sorry cant help you with a build plan. But i can Welcome you to the best BBQ site on the net!
 
If you make a vertical smoker you can put 1/2 inch rods through the barrel and use expanded metal cut in a circle just smaller then the barrel for the grill grates and do the same for the lower grate for the water pan....
