If I can remember, I'll take some pics of its current condition this weekend. The inside is WELL seasoned now.

Will you also get some close ups of the door, for frame and anything else door related. I have about 478 different ideas in my head about what I'm going to do but not convinced 100% on which way yet.

Beautiful work Dan. I like your fire pit behind it also.

Awesome smoker! Random question here. The little tabs that are holding the deer antlers on the door at the top, what are they? They look like those little archery insert tools you get in packs of inserts lol just curious. Awesome ingenuity in this thing

I'll be honest, I found the tabs in one of my junk bins and just used them. I'm not sure where they came from. I was going to use some small screws but didn't think they would work good in the pine boards. The tabs have lasted all these years though. :tup:

They almost look like the tabs you put over transducer cable when it goes through the transom and you need it to turn down flush on the outside of transom.

Is there anything you would do differently if you built another smokehouse?

The only thing I haven't completed on it was installing a thermometer (with external smokehouse readout) to stick in the meat being smoked. I have all the parts but still haven't used them yet. I still open the door and use a standard meat thermometer to check internal temps.

I can't think of anything I would change from the original build.
