I built a couple twins beds for a friend out of oak, now his turn.

Backwoods clone with five shelves each 36x24 with 6 inches between.

Frame is 2" (16ga.) and 3" (11 ga.) tubing.

All sheet metal is 16 ga.

Water Pan is made out of 1/2"

Here are some more pictures!!!

Angle for the shelves

Insulation

Doors Hung.

Should get it send to the painters by end of week. Still need to make racks and charcoal basket.

The box is 50 inches tall. Went with the 3 inch so we could use 2 inch for insulation and 1 inch for the air channel to feed the main chamber. My buddy builds farm machinery so he also tends to overkill.

Looks like your buddy is doing a good job but dang, 1/2" plate for a water pan? Well, you can always use it for a bomb shelter. Laughing
