I was reciently given this smoker..... http://www.lowes.com/pd_332738-4260...br|0||p_product_qty_sales_dollar|1&facetInfo=
So I bought a grate to lift up the charcole in the fire pit. I drilled three hole ~ 1" from the ground. My next hope is to add a vent on the top. And also to have a sliding cover for the bottom hole. From what I have seen most ppl are using tin or alunimum that is then cut to shape. Holes are drilled on smoker and attached. My question is how do you drill the holes for the top damper? Drilling the holes on the fire box was a royal pain in the butt. It was hard to keep the drill bit in place to make the cut, but was eventualy possible. To make a 1/2" hole seems nearly impossible. So I ask how is the best done? Thank you _Duane
