He is taking the lid of the pipe he has the torch to and is going to weld it to the one in the background. Kurt is one of the only people i know that rain will never stop one of his projects. The top picture is second pipe after he welded the lid on. He also put the chimney on ans well as cut the lid for it but i didn't get pictures yet.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4207569259306586141-609089122667687648?l=kurtandsara.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kurtandsara.blogspot.com/feeds/609089122667687648/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kurtandsara.blogspot.com/2009/06/kurts-smoker.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4207569259306586141/posts/default/609089122667687648'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4207569259306586141/posts/default/609089122667687648'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kurtandsara.blogspot.com/2009/06/kurts-smoker.html' title='Kurt&apos;s Smoker'/><author><name>Kurt-Sara Merrick</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13997948935399465985</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9_CeEyNyciM/Si09IhdnPAI/AAAAAAAAAAc/zyGLa8RZGJg/s72-c/weekend+worrieers+022.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
