Mini smoker build from fire extinguisher .... Welding fabrication projects

I take an old extinguisher, and turn it into what it always wanted to be, a fine functional mini smoker! Watch and enjoy my video of the complete build from start to finish and first cook.
Got lots of other mini smoker ideas such as using an old gas cylinder to make a larger smoker, do share any thoughts or ideas or tell me about your own mini smoker build.
I'm a welder from the UK who has now pursued a new career path, but I keep my hand in my own home workshop.

This video must have got at least a million views. I don't understand KZbin's algorithm sometimes.

Thank you, glad you did 👍😊

Your garage is a serious playroom

[@thehomeweldshed]

I do like it!

[@justindean5118]

Add some stove rope or such to seal it up to mate. small improvements to make it fantastic

[@thehomeweldshed]

Good call, it does leak a little.

[@MuraroPlantasEmCasa]

Isso mesmo, tem que usar os equipamentos de segurança (EPI) ☝️😀🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@thehomeweldshed]

Indeed you do, can't do a lot without eyes or fingers ☠️

[@ParamotorLife]

Dude, that is so cool. I am gonna make one!

[@thehomeweldshed]

Do it, you won't regret it 😀

This is like the masculine version of an easy bake oven, complete with over-engineering and potential for 3rd degree burns. Nice piece of equipment to get some quick hot smoke on some fish or chicken breast or something, then burn out in an hour.

[@thehomeweldshed]

Over engineered? Yep. Built this because I could 😂 Third degree burns? You can get those on any BBQ or smoker. Burns out in an hour? Well yes, but it's only little, it's not like you'll throw a suckling pig in there. Chuck in a mackerel and a few pork chops and they come out lovely 😋

Great build video, Awesome little smoker. And very tasty looking results! 👍👍👍

[@thehomeweldshed]

Thank you, was very pleased with the results 👍🙂

[@jackwebb5917]

Awesome project! Only thing you may consider adding is an adjustable plate on the top of the chimney to let you dial in temps better

[@thehomeweldshed]

Thank you 😊 that is a good shout, I do have lots of other things in mind to improve this, stay tuned for new things 😃

[@justindean5118]

You could also put a dust maze like the pro q one and do cold smoking

[@thehomeweldshed]

Got lots of modifications in mind for this

[@hectorduncan7449]

This is going to be a superb channel.

[@thehomeweldshed]

Thank you 💗 much more coming

Would have been easier to make the fire box sides from one piece and fold it, then add the ends. Saves time and welding/cutting.

[@thehomeweldshed]

You are correct, that would be the ideal.... If I had a sheet metal folder. It's on the tool wish list, amongst many other tools 😂 you can never have enough!

[@slashsplat]

Made me very hungry. I think the aluminum can with the wood will melt on the coals.

[@thehomeweldshed]

Surprisingly it doesn't melt. Everything I make in there sure tastes good 😋

[@kholismunawar2918]

Great one. I dont see you make the door hinge at the rear.

[@thehomeweldshed]

Thanks for watching:)

[@bullsnutsoz]

Nuh -I call BS to all that clumsy; foggy safety gear. You will do better with out it all clogging up your ears, eyes and senses. Countries in the international world scoff at our ignorance of safety.

[@thehomeweldshed]

Not going to deny safety gear can be a pain in the rear at times, but as I only have one set of ears, eyes and lungs, I try to look after them.

[@bullsnutsoz]

@@thehomeweldshed Steve much of the world wont touch it. I do agree that you promote it for youngens though , thanks.

[@thehomeweldshed]

@@bullsnutsoz You're welcome. Thanks for watching 🙂
