Nice Score on Tanks

We pick up this many tanks every 2-3 weeks. The good ones get repurposed into custom smokers the heavy pitted and trashy ones get srapped. we use all of the tank even the end caps. Every once and a while we will get a 500 gallon tank that is 3/8'' thick but 1/4'' is the norm. The 250 tanks weigh roughly 700lb and the 500 tanks about 1000-1200lbs.

That looks like a very profitable gig. Thanks for the pictures and would sure like to see a picture of one of your smokers and what you repurpose the ends for.

VERY nice!!

Jon.

Can you post pics of how you've modified your truck bed? It looks interesting.

Cool projects!

I now officially have a good reason to leave NYC and buy a truck. I want one of these smokers!

Great haul! Can you email me more pictures of that pit, inside and out. I'm looking to make me a pit.
Thanks

It will be killer when I actually get to finish it. A welder never gets to work on his own stuff..lol
I'll post a couple here and start a thread in the equipment section. It will force me to prioritize it and get it done.

Plans are full headache rack with roof basket/rack extended over the roof and welder. reels and bottle storage, custom bumpers. But I'll start a different thread for that in the correct section
