I got this free Smokey Joe from a friend. After a bit of consideration, I decided to try my hand at the Mini WSM.
My son and I put it all together this evening. I know those St. Louis guys here on the forum will appreciate it
I got the IMUSA pot, and after school my son and I started drilling holes out on the bottom...I'll show the completed pics tomorrow:

Got home, marked the places for the screws, inserted the washers, screw, and nut...

Taping it on was a bit of a challenge...
Three coats of paint later, it was ready to come off:
And here's the pretty much finished product! I'll add the rest of the pics of the interior and bottom tomorrow.
