i'm sure you could build one any size you want. you just need to provide adequate air supply to the fire chamber or it will kind of choke itself and then you wouldn't be able to control the heat. my dad made his smoker out of a big commercial industrial freezer, i think you could fit a whole hog inside it. my smoker is a 5 foot vertical cabelas smoker with a 1 foot lower fire/smoke/water compartment. my wife suprised me for christmas 3 years ago with it and it has worked flawlessly. i prefer the vertical style due to the chimney effect of the smoke accross the meat. it is so tall that i can trap alot of smoke in there and turn the fire off for cold smoking cheese. here is a picture of the smoker i have. mine is 5 foot but the picture is of a shorter model.

I was considering turning a spare fridge into A smoker... I think i'd rather turn it into a kegerator with a tap on the door for my home brew.
