This gives you an idea of how far it is from the house. With the leaves gone, it's not hid anymore.

In my spare time (when its raining and cold) i've been building a smoker. I got the idea off a guy from another forum (thanks bluesin). Its made from hardie board and it is heavy. I plan on making a frame for the bottom and adding wheels.

Here's pics of the vents. I'm going to put fire brick in the bottom, and it will have adjustable shelves.

Is the hardie board be lined? Wondering about the cement/ceramic board generating dust as it ages?

No, just high temp paint.

Ok, here goes. I used a ac/heat floor diffuser for the bottom vent, and a Big Green Egg daisy wheel for the top vent (concreted in). The hardie board is doubled to make it thicker (just glued together with gorilla glue), the whole thing is held together with gorilla glue, no screws at all. I used a BGE temp. gauge, but any would do. After painting with high temp. paint (on the inside) burn it in at 500 degrees for a couple of hours and you're ready to go. There is really no need to go above 400 degrees while cooking, but the hardie will withstand higher temps. I'm gonna stucco the outside of mine to match my kitchen, but you could just paint it. I'll post more pics when i get more done.
