    In theory it shouldn't matter. It is only a temp measure anyway until I get a longer hose and bigger cylinder.

    Help with smoking needed

    Here is a pic of my current setup. I tried some kind of aluminum tray that sat on top on top of the bars above the burner with chips. I have it 40 mins and still no smoke. Thats why I bought larger pieces of wood. Would not having a vent on top cause any problems.

    Gas burner build

    I was planning on a wooden one first lined with foil. But then thought I might as well build a metal one so it will last. Im not sure on the size but I was thinking on 3 shelves and some steel rods up top so I can hang as-well. Any size suggestions?
