Hey all,
My water heater died this weekend, so I now have a tank that's about 16"x54". I have yet to harvest it from its sheetmetal insulated cocoon, but that's the approximate measurements I anticipate.
I've got ideas of making this a smoker, but I think a 16" tank is too small.
I was thinking about a vertical unit. One where there are shelves every 10" or so. Mount this on top of a firebox and "bam"???
What do you think? Any ideas?
Also, are water heaters coated with anything that's harmful if heated this hot?
