Used drums are hard to find and even if I did it would be nearly impossible to do a 6 hour burn off to make sure the inside of the drum is clean as the heafty $500.00 would not make my wife happy . Thinking I might have to give up on a UDS build.

One inch will be just fine that's what I have on my uds.nascarchuck wrote:OK... Fixin to make another drum smoker within the next week or so. Question about painting and the prep for the paint.
Using the weed burner that y'all talk about, do you burn the paint off on the outside of the drum or what? I have yet to paint one but the next one will be painted. I just want to prep it right so the paint will adhere properly.
Also, when using nipples for the intake, what length are you using? I was using short ones, like around 1" but saw someone has long ones (maybe 10"-12"). Would that work better getting the intake closer under the coals?
What cha thunk?
