Update: 11/10/14
Well, the fabrication is done. Finished her up last night, and she rests peacefully in the garage until I can afford blasting and paint. We were going to try and prep her ourselves, but just cant get her clean enough. I think blasting is the right thing to do. Have a few quotes in, will make a decision where to send it later this week, but it is looking like J&M Sandblast will get the honors. Found out welding upside down is incredibly hard. My retarded friend almost died trying to seal up the drain pipe. And by retarded friend, I mean me really sauced up. The burns should heal up in a few weeks I think. While finishing up welds inside the fire box, just from heat off the welder, I did get to see the draft working. And I have been kinda worried about my calculations so I am very happy about that. Over the baffle and all! Enjoy the pics, next ones should be the finished the product!

The Birth of MMPII!!
I know it's been a while, but here she is! 250 gallon reverse flow stick burner, tank from 1952. Coming from MMP1, gave me a run for my money for about the first six hours while I seasoned her. (with sesame seed oil). Really have to slow down that draft to get the heat to distribute, or else all the heat just flies right out. After I got that figured out, runs at 250 degrees all day on about 2-3 sticks an hour, I can push 2 hrs, but is easier to manage the fire. Anyway, this all took place over the weekend. Got her back from blast and paint, used a paint brush to coat the inside with sesame seed oil, and off we go! We are going to go with a Steam Punk theme on MMPII here, and as you can see, a friend of mine is making that top hat for a smoke stack cover. Also, going with mud flaps instead of fenders. I hope you like it!
