    UPDATE I got referred to a smoker mods website, and I saw their heat deflectors/baffles. I noticed that they were bolt on. What I did was cut the welds, cut the baffle in half and made it bolt on so that it can be removed and can completely be cleaned from now on. I hope that cutting it in...

    Thank you Mike, I definately need to modify it a bit. It heats up nicely even though the inlet is small. However being that I did my best designing functionality that I've overlooked designing it to be cleaned. Here's a couple of pictures why: The heat deflector is welded to the smoking...

    Thank you Al, I think I know what you're getting at with the inlet. a couple of gentlemen on a Facebook welding group pointed out that the inlet was too small, it is a rectangle that is 1.5" x 8.5" I believe 4 inches long. So with that in mind I went ahead and "burned it in" to see if that...

    Baffle/ Heat deflectors

    I myself fell in this category. As mention in my thread under " Roll Call" I fabricated one to learn how to do a roll-out but something practical to sell.
