Smoker specs?

[obnoxious001]

My son's friend has been making some pretty nice BBQ grills, and has been getting some requests to make some smokers. For all of you guys who own and use them,, what size and features would you recommend he incorporate into his design. He grew up in Santa Maria, so he is serious about BBQ!

You beat me to it.
That is the best place to start because the sky is the limit. I have built a few and everyone needs mods. They are ALL a work in progress

Very nice I wish I had the time and space I would do the same. Have you look at the diamond plate smokers I love the rear fire box and tons of room.
