Hey guys just started my build and then found your formula page... But all in all i do believe my smoker will be awesome!!! It is my neighbors second build his has the firebox at the end where i took a different approach and used a 100lb propane tank cut down to approx 3/4 size underneath a 250 lb tank. it is quite the sight not your ordinary design i chose to stand both the fire box and the smoke chamber upright!!! Fr the smoke diffuser I have added the top of the fire box inside as a bowl for water it is adjustable up and down to regulate the flow of heat i will add pics as i get more done

Welcome to the Ring.
Very interesting build. I imagine the shelves rotate?
