It fits nice! Looks nice! And will go into my favorites in my hat collection!

The handles and hinges are of good quality and worked as expected

I bought the plans because I knew that material isn’t cheap and I didn’t want to reinvent the wheel. As soon as I downloaded the drawings I had exactly what I needed , what I didn’t expect was the support they offer. If you have any questions they answer them. And as I have found out by talking to frank with a calculator in my hand as he rattled off numbers, a lot of math goes into what they do. If you’re serious about building a smoker order the plans they cost way less than one mistake will cost you in time and materials.

Perfect size for me, they stick down and out enough for me to reach the handle when the door is open, my cooking grates are at waist height so I needed a handle that came down enough I could reach it when the door was fully open and these fit the bill. I was able to plug weld a 1/2” round bar between them with no problem. They do come with millscale and will need to be hit with a flap disk before welding.

Just got my Super55 all finished today and boy oh boy am I in love. This kit was extremely easy to build and looks amazing when finished how you like. Shout out to Mr Frank Cox for killing it on the design. People go get you one of these you won’t regret it. Cooking_withsmoke

They're solid, sturdy, well built, and compliment the look of my drum smokers. Their weighted feel gives you a sense of quality when lifting and replacing the lids. The best part about them is that they're bolt on, which is great for me since I'm not a welder.

THANK YOU MUCH WORK OUT GREAT. FIT PERFECT! WILL BUY IT AGAIN.

I currently have four smoker drum barrels. I have the type of drum that has the longer upright tube intakes. They work great, but honestly after assembling and experiencing my first cook I can say that with the new design of the intakes, charcoal basket and baffle this smoker functions even better than any of the four drums I compete with. Frank hit a home run with this new and improved smoker. I like it so much I’m going to purchase another kit.

I just got the Franks ultimate smoker hardware kit and it looks fantastic. I was one of the guys that made all of my own parts to try and save money but with the quality of this kit it saves a ton of time and with the price I could not have made them myself any cheaper. Thanks for a great product Frank. Davve

This was a fun build. It was my first UDS build. Having exact plans to help with the build was amazing. Having quality party and pieces to build it with was awesome too. Cooking on the Super 55 smoker is super easy and the taste and smoke flavor that it creates is so good. Take the leap, buy and build the the Super 55. Thank you Frank - ibb_backyard_bbq

I used these to replace the handles on my vintage oklahoma joe, back when they were made out of 1/4" pipe. I had to make the holes larger and cut some longer stainless rod but that was no big deal. Great product at a great price!!!

The instructions are easy to follow and the metal is a high quality. This kit holds temperature really well, no need really to mess with the vents once you get your desired temp.

The plans look amazing. Unfortunately I don’t know how to read plans. But the pictures are nice, so I can always imagine what this smoker would look like if I had the skills or training to build it. If I had the skills my build would be 3/8” everywhere, with a 1/2” to 3/4” firebox. No rotisserie and build it on a trailer.

The best smoker plan ever, I have seen!
