Thanks!!!
 
they look FANTASTIC... I see your doing indirect cooking.. here's a simple charcoal basket to make and it will make your cook last longer without having to add charcoal so often... I can get 6 plus hours on one full load... wood chunks of your choice mixed throughout... you can do without the divider in the center, but it's handy for shorter cooks.... any questions just PM me....

Great idea....I have to make me one of those

Thanks!
 
just make it long enough so when it sits on the bottom of the chamber it's a couple of inches off the bottom so ashes can fall out and not smother the fire.... hold your tape measure across the bottom from side to side until it's about 2 inches off the bottom.... believe mine is 17" long x 5"wide x 5" tall... a grate will still sit right over top of the basket (that's how i burn them off to clean)....
