    Slow motion reverse flow 300 gal.

    Yeah ribrustler67. mounted dead center. If my calcs are right..... it should be close on both ends and the center. My first center fired had the RF plate lower on the left side. The left side had the coolest temps. This time the Rf plate is level and with the heat shield under center of the Rf...

    Got the RF plate welded in with dam and water test. Ready to stick it! It's better to have too much trailer. I found out the hard way. The smoke chamber over the trailer for measurements. I had to remove 34" off the back of the trailer and I will remove 38" from the front. Then it will...

    Good start.  Yeah all them propane tanks have a lip of some kind where they weld the ball ends to the rolled plate. Keep working away and you'll be done before you know it! Dave

    Questions<---will lead to new RF trailer build

    Sounds like that trailer should work. What's the GVW on it? A little more trailer than you need is always good. I keep adding things to mine. I did a center fire but you probably want to go conventional with the fire box at one end. That will allow you to mount a warming box over the firebox. I...

    Questions<---will lead to new RF trailer build

    Hello e-zlight. Welcome to the forum. My personal opinion is to go with the 250. That's what I have and in the last 2 years I've run out of cooking real estate at least a half dozen times. Mine uses a 40# bag of mesquite charcoal to run for 6 or so hours  at 225 to 250 degrees. And yes it will...

    Slow motion reverse flow 300 gal.

    Rasimmo you're right about the differences in thermal expansion, but I drilled the pipes .016" over size so there would be room for a good fit. All that is needed is a 1/64" over sized drill bit.    I have made 3 different size hinges and found the bits very reasonable on eBay. That being said I...

    Here's a better picture of the swing out stools. I saw them on Grills Gone Wild. These are some smoking little stools.
Great deal on LEM Grinders!
