Drum 2.1 complete...

Added the intake riser to this model, don't really care for the difference it make's in the temp. flucuation, not as steady temp's and not as efficient burn's...IMO i like the bend over model

I think both of them look great, the one in the background looks like it can smoke it's share of meat to.

Hmmm..a possible problem/fix for the riser model. At least DOUBLE the pipe size. Airflow restriction is a function not only of the pipe size, but the pipe length. Maybe even triple... with those 2 90's in there...

On Edit: Once you are a few inches away from the 90 off the base, you could change to Sched. 80 PVC for weights and cost reduction. Use a plastic valve even.

May be on to something there. Have to sit back and think about that ...

Looks good bubba, I added a riser intake on the one i'm doing now. I'll have to see how it burns, might end up taking it off.
