Brinkman SNP Gets a makeover!

[glued2it]

I had purchased this Smoker from a Craigslist add back in late Nov.

As you can see it was kinda a Beater, But it was the old heavy style SNP.
Picked it up for $40.00 ands it's been a great smoker after a couple mods.

Today I decided to give it a little quick makeover.
I went to Home Depot and pick up a couple of supplies and Viola!









I used some fence slats for the all the wood since they are pressure treated and cheap.
The whole process only took a few hours and the outcome was better than I expected.


Fence slats $2.38
Nuts and bolts $3.00
High Heat Paint $9.00

Feeling like you have a new smoker,

Priceless!

That thing sure cleaned up nice! Great looking face-life you put on your rig. Get that thing re-seasoned and light it up!!

Glued - what type of paint did you use to coat the outside of the smoker? Was it high temp specific? Thanks!

Looking good glued. Amazing what a coat of paint can do. Sanded my firebox and repainted it today.

Looks great and saved money also. Probably got a better smoker than a brand new one. More power to you. Wish you many happy SMOKE WISPS

Hey Laurel. I did part of mine this aft with Rust-Oleum High Heat paint. It;s made for grills, stoves, etc. Got it at Menards for $3.78

 

[sumosmoke]

Thanks so much, daboys!!! Appreciate it

I reasoned it right after I finished getting all spiffyed up.
Can't have have smoker sitting around not ready

I used the Rustolem High heat rated @ 1200º

I did all the mods when I first bought it. I just now got around to the cosmetics.

I wish I would have taken a picture before I started but I didn't plan on doing as much to it. Pus it was in a little worse shape.

I was just going to put the 2 slats for the self so I could actually have somewhere to put stuff.

After that I figured. maybe I should make some handles. I had plenty of scraps.

So after I started that I thought might as well paint it too.


I might have to do my little one now so they will match.
