How To Build an Ugly Drum Smoker "UDS" using the UDSParts.com Kit...JUNE 2020

Aaron Lewis decided to see what all the fuss was about and bought the $159 UDS Kit from UDSParts.com.. He brought it over to me and I talked him into doing a Build Demonstration Video to give you an idea about how easy it is to install.

Tools Needed are:
Drill with 1/4 inch Drill Bit
One ...1-1/2 inch Hole Saw or Step-Bit for Intakes
One ...2 Inch Hole saw for Exhaust
One...Phillips Head Screw Driver
One...7/16 inch Socket and Ratchet

Accessories tha we added not with the kit but purchased from UDSparts.
Two...Side Handles
One...Lid Hook
One... Grommet
Four...Caster Mounts with Casters
One...Extra Grate to serve as a Platform to hold the diffuser
Total buid time was about 1-1/2 Hours..

Other Necessities... Charcoal...I suggest Royal Oak Briquettes or XL Lump and to start your fire, Royal Oak Tumbleweeds available at Walmart and Home Depot..
