    I now have it all welded and ready to get some legs under her. I have a piece of 3.75 ss pipe 39" long that I'm going to hook up to a plenum at grate level. I'm not sure what I want to do for legs, either have the angled or straight down to a lower shelf. I want it on legs, then I'm doing the...

    Plenum size/placement

    Typically do people run one drain from the rf plate through the bottom of cc, this would inhibit draining of lower portion of CC? Lets say if you hosed it out or had to clean the lower portion? I was going to set the CC on a minimal slope away from the fire box, to aid in rf draining. I...

    Will it matter if I am rolling and installing flat ends? A true cylinder.

    Nice work. How did you come up with the 7" to inset the fire box to the cc? i'm just in the process of my build and i see as lot of fb inserted into the cook chamber, is there any benefit to this? Or does it matter if Fb is on the outside? Im sure The Guru will have some input.........Dave?

    When my plates came off the burning table the cord length was 16.5" and my segment height was 4.4", i am going to use a side mounted plenum with a 4" id pipe.  Im eating a quick lunch then im off to shear my 3/16" plate for rolling. Working in a welding shop helps. once i have all the pieces my...
