BUYING THIS, YOU WILL RECEIVE A DXF FILE, NOT A COMPLETE SMUDGE POT!!!
I do offer a DIY kit. This will consist of all the metal cut out and ready to bend/ welded. I can do custom designs in the chimney as well!!
The DIY kits are $325.
Please email me for more info: austin@avrcustoms.com.
This is built from 1/8" steel. This design has a total height of 42" Tank holds roughly 3.5 gallons of diesel/ oil.
This will take a 4'x5' piece of steel.
I have a video on my Youtube channel of building the smudge pot:

I bought the DXF file. Well designed. The bends can be done by hand but it was more effort than I originally thought. I got it done though. Everything fits well together. I put just enough used motor oil and a small amount of acetone to see if it would work. It burned very clean for about 15 minutes and then ran out of fuel. I haven't had a chance to light it at night time yet.
Thinking about building a smudge pot and don’t want to design your own? Look no further! This thing works amazing. Burns super clean on ultra low sulfur diesel and going to test oil and kerosene next. Welded together super nicely and looks rad with a 3’+ fireball roaring out the top.
I will admit assembly was kinda tricky with no instructions. Strongly recommend watching the YouTube tutorial on it being built made it super simple to do.
I took this original design and added different stuff on the stack as well that was more my style.
What are you waiting for? Buy it and let it rip!
I've wanted to make one of these since I saw them online, but I wanted something that I could say I made. I found some cheaper kits with very basic designs and/or thinner materials. I liked the "We the People" themed ones, and I came across the video on this one and fell in love with it. I wanted some more welding experience, especially since I just got into TIG welding, so this was perfect. I reached out to an old friend with his own fab company, and I asked him if he'd cut it out for me. I bought the file, sent it to him, he cut it out, and then we met up and I put it together. I did have to source a small section of 1.5" tube because I only had 1.25". Idk if the exhaust/chimney damper was in the file, because he cut it out for me, but I had to go and buy some steel for that. I used some prevailing torque nuts for the fill cap and damper because nylon would obviously melt. It keeps it as tight or as loose as you'd like it, and it won't loosen up. I don't want to have to paint it, so my plan was to heat it, oil it, heat it, oil it, and see if it'll season it like a wok. So far it seems to have worked, but only time will tell. Very happy with the design, look, and overall layout.
Could not download this file and could not get a hold of anyone to see if they can fix it
Works great. I rearranged some of the pieces to save a little more metal on my sheet but overall the project went together great.
