Fairly new neighbors. Pretty good dude. Baylor lawyer type. Previous neighbor had this pretty decent smoker out by his pool. I noticed it several times over the years. I saw it on the curb this morning with the trash. So I wheeled it home and up the driveway. Looks to be in pretty good shape. Might need a new pullout drawer. I wonder who could make me a simple metal drawer. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/03/full-56901-385344-7e001f57_40a1_4274_af41_8dddcf10edaa.jpeg)

I like your style. The blond in my passenger seat always cringes when Im driving by any old stuff at the curb......
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

I saw a guy on the YouTube that cleans them up. Puts a concoction of salt, vinegar and peroxide on them. Then coats with boiled linseed oil.
Very nice rusted look.

A couple cans of high temp black will have it looking like new.

Some sanding and a couple of cans of high temperature flat black and it's a winner.

That appears to be an Oklahoma Joe’s. I bet the drawer can be bought as a replacement part pretty cheap.

It's a trap! Neighbor is in a cartel and the inside is laced with Fentanyl!
My botnet is bigger than yours.

Guy at work bought one like that from a co-worker's neighbor for $200 (in a little better shape) so you done good.
Pass the gravy.

Always enjoy a good free-be  There was an ad a while back for a nice Old Country smoker in Weatherford, I think it was the $599.99 version, people were giving it away because they bought a Pellet Grill. I responded like 7 minutes after the ad came out and was to late. Bummer because I was going to give it to a great friends daughter who's husband is a DPS Trooper.

I think I've picked up every lawn mower that I've ever owned the same way. It's bizarre how many brand new ones you will find sitting next to someone's trash can with a note on them saying that they are trash.
Trolling? Heck no, I meant every word of it.

Nice.
I grew up the son and grandson of junkets. We would stop and pickup anything they thought we could make money on or use. To this day, I will stop and pickup anything I can use.

Got all the surface rust off. It’s in pretty good shape. Had to stop for the day. Got stung by bees 3 times. F that. I’m out. On the firebox. It’s a pullout drawer. Think it was added. I think I’m just gonna put a piece of steel in there. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/04/full-56901-385491-93bcc379_28af_41b4_85c9_02656ee64783.jpeg)
