This is the cabinet I made for my Bradley smoker . On the 3rd photo you can see my
Squirrel I'm smoking :)

Pretty slick set-up! Does it draw okay? Or does the cabinet fill with smoke? BTW...welcome to the forum from Nebraska.
The cabinet does fill with smoke but it does work ok and while smoking you could just leave the door open . But I leave the door closed and it seems to work fine .

Nice setup and welcome from Texas. Let's see some pictures of that smoked long tailed rat. I may have to get back to squirrel hunting now.
Let me urge you to cut some ventilation holes near the bottom of the wall closest to the left side of the smoke generator. If the generator doesn't have adequate draw to properly vent the smoke you run the risk of smoke backing up in the generator, effectively destroying it.
Others much more knowledgeable than me will come along and give you much better advice. Let me urge you to take their advice.
looks really good, great job

That's why I asked the question, but I wasn't sure. Hoping someone with more experience would come along. Thanks, KyNola.
I would cut a hole in the wall where the SG is and cover it with a vent cover, like a dryer exhaust vent or something.
Nice cabinet.
Give it a few months and you will be builder a much larger one :o
Lump
I will add a vent to the bottom left of it . Thanks for the tip !

Nice set up
For the intake I would drill a 4" hole in the side of your cabinet right next to the generator and stick one of these thingys in it

That way you can keep the door closed and your smoker will be really happy on windy days ;D

They work well for ventilation, but I notice these don't have any screen inserts. To prevent insects from entering, just cut some circular pieces of screen that will fit inside the louvers.
looks good, only thing i would mention is the fact that it is attached to i'm guessing your house and God forbid you had a cabinet fire.
