    Good night with the ecb.

    Bored out the holes in the charcoal pan to get more air, worked great, held good temp, almost set it and forget it. Got two and a half hours at 240 with some apple wood to smoke a couple tenderloins, good stuff![/IMG][/IMG][/IMG]

    Rope gasket size and glue type?

    Lower dampener placement?

    I like your design, just don't know if I want legs on my smoker, wanna keep it compact so I can haul it down the river when multiday rafting or throw it in the truck when camping. If I don't use legs it will be easier for the unit to nest inside itself when traveling.
