Stan, A 150 gal tank as you described is worth about $100 or a little more since you have done the dangerous part of opening up the tank by cutting the 2 holes in it. A 150 gal is a nice size tank to put on an axle and be able to move around from Deer camp, to church social to Friday/Saturday football games. Do not cut it in half that is the waste of a good tank. JMO! If you decide to put it on and axle as I describe then the sky is the limit as to how to build it, We build smokers as a rule with the ability to grill too. IE... RH or LH fire box! an area to grill steaks,chops and the like. or at least a easy way to clean out the main body of the pit , when charcoal is used to grill things. What to add to the trailer assembly ie LP deep fryer to fry fish/potatoes, or even a griddle to fry eggs, or breakfast items, add Electricity for lights when you are cooking at night! A Chuck box to store all accessories. Anyway hope this helps Later, John A. PS My pit is a old underground 150 Butane tank, that was at my home as a child (History) on a channel iron frame, with a 1950 front chevy pu axle under it OBTW it has ball bearings in the hubs, NOT roller bearings like newer ones. It is a LH fire box to the work area. A 1/2thick X 1ft.wide X 5ft.long piece of gray Coran counter top for the cutting board. I built it about 20 yrs ago and still cook as well today as it did when it was New! Yes there are things I should have done different or added! some day when I have more time. Anyway if you decide to build a new pit you have a nice blank slate to play with. Have fun. Hollar if you like. Later, JAS.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
