    First RF Build. Excited!

    RW, I think I'll try a slanted one the next time. I saw a picture of yours like that. Must be even better.

    I traced onto a piece of cardboard, transferred to the fb, cut it out, onto a floor jack, and up into position.

    First run on new reverse flow

    I agree. And I think that Dave O will tell us that the 90 degree bend on the stack is a significant choke/friction point.

    First RF Build. Excited!

    Had a few hands around today so I got the firebox mounted. It's not welded 100% because its cold out, but it is on and looking like a smoker now. I did cut the "sled" so that I could use a floor jack to lift it into place. The top of the firebox does actually sit an inch higher than the rf...

    My first 80Gal RF build... This is going to be a blast!

    Alaska; my angle iron for my bottom grate is flush with the bottom of the door opening. It can just slide right out. Hope this is what you are asking. As far as the top grate; if your pit is vented properly you shouldn't "smoke out" the food. Just my thoughts. Thanks.

    My first 80Gal RF build... This is going to be a blast!

    Howdy, Alaska. Back when I was in Adak, no McDonalds. No fast food joints at all. You pretty much ate at home or got something out of a vending machine at the bowling alley. Going off thread here, but I remember in either '77 or '78, the military flew in a bunch of Burger King stuff and some...

    Beef Jerky: Ten Pounds, Two Types (with Pics)

    What is the "tried and true wooden toothpick method" mentioned for hanging the jerky on the rack? Have yet to make jerky, but I sure wanna!! Keith

    Biltong with Q view

    I love French fries with vinegar. Wish I had a dehydrator...Looks good.

    First run on new reverse flow

    I use briquettes on the bottom, pile on split wood, then torch it up with a propane torch to start it. I only use wood after that. Don't use lighter fluid if you can help it. Keith

    My First Build - 250 gallon RF

    Howdy. Looking forward to watching your build. Good luck, read a lot, and ask a lot of questions...Some pretty smart folks here will help you build the pit of your dreams. Keith

    First RF Build. Excited!

    Haha thanks Jweller. You are right, a shopping cart would handle better! You can spin this thing like a ballerina. I will put it on my to do list. Maybe I can weld/modify two of them to be stationary. Too cold to look today though. Even in Texas.

    First RF Build. Excited!

    Thanks, Nick. Been following yours too. Nice job. Hey RW, I have some 4" square stock out in my boneyard that I was going to use for the stack. Any problems with square?

    First RF Build. Excited!

    Thanks, Dave. So I will either build a plenum or vent through the top. If I use a plenum, I would guess based on your reply, that neither the plenum nor the stack below the top of the cc count towards exhaust volume?
Great deal on LEM Grinders!
