Hello everyone!
I just purchased my first smoker the Smoke Hollow pro 44 from Sams club. I am excited about putting it together and using it. While I am going to put it together I wanted to build a mobile hut of sorts for it before hand.
My vision was to have a 3/4 inch plywood with 4 casters attached. I then figured to frame the 3 sides out using 2 x 4 and then using either 1/2 inch plywood as the "walls". I was planning to staple Reflectix on the inside portion and then using Silver tape to seal the seams. Areas where I need advice / help:
1 - Does this sound like a decent start? Should I be using anything different?
2- On the inside floor, what can I line this with? Would lining it with Aluminum sheet metal be a good choice?
3 - The roof. Should I build a roof to keep the rain and snow out in the winter time?
4 - If I do build a roof, should I put a whole in the top so the chimney from the Smoke Hollow Pro can vent out or should I just leave enough clearance and keep it a without a vent hole? Should I also line the roof with Reflectix?
5- Should I stain or treat the outside parts of the wood with anything to repel or protect it form the elements?
Thanks in advance for any and all help / advice. I plan to post pictures along the way as I build my little mobile Smoke hut / shack
