Ok, well i have made up my mind on the design exept for 1 aspect. I would like to keep both round ends of my tank, but I also want to have a "warming box". Now.....I have seen smokers with boths ends still intact, but the stack comes out of the tank before it gets to the warmer box. The warmer box is sealed. Now, I have been around smokers that have the one end cut off where the fire box and warming box is, and the stack comes out of the top of the warming box. I would like mine to come out of the warming box so I can use the warming box as a smoking area, but so I have to cut off the round end in order to accomplish that without sacrificing the area of the round end? Thanks, Smokin!
