    First Build- Please Critique my plan

    Thanks Ribwizzard-  Looks like a built-in baffle plate in the firebox is your suggestion. I"m thinking the calculated volumn of the firebox would be below the baffle plate? This is the first time I've heard of any concern about burning the paint off the firebox top. While I was at work today I...

    The 2" separation on the firebox end is to allow for a 1" drop on the other end. The recommendations on this site are for 1.5 x FB/CC opening for the area below the RP. Hope I got this thinking right? Thanks

    Hey Jck- The top of the FB inside the chamber is at the same height as the reverse plate, I think I should drop the firebox, and just extend the reverse plate above it.

    First Build- Please Critique my plan

    Officially Started- Thanks for the help, Looks like I'm going with a stack damper like Frankensmoker, it seems to be a popular style. I think I'll also put two 3x2 intake vents near the top of the charcoal basket.   I'm going to need to figure out how to do the heat defuser, Looks like a baffle...

    First Build- Please Critique my plan

    Hi Guys- Here's my plan for my first smoker build. I have a 60 Gal compressor tank, so thats what I'll use. The cooking area seems a little small for all the work, but it should be big enough to learn and perfect my smoking skills. I've looked thru what seems like all the build threads, and...

    Hello from Northern WI

    Hi,      I live on a great chain of lakes in the northwoods, thus "Chain Smoker".  Been smoking for a few years, mostly on an Original Bradley, but bad luck with heating elements keeps me limited.
