Welcome to S.M.F. ! See all the great advise allready ? Not to step on any toes , but for my 2 cents I would advise NOT to use the chimeney cap to regulate heat.This will cause ' stale ' smoke to collect in the smoke chamber, which will result a build-up of creosite, a bitter black yuky-ness ...
Yeah ,I shot the birds and they took points away ! Whats up with that ? Then they said I drank to many beers and took more points !! Geez !!For some fun light the match while it is still in the storage box and see what happens !Did it once by accident
Meat , are ya dead set on electric ? Your mention of side fire box is confusing me a bit. Are you planing on putting a side fire box on a vert. or just using idea,s for baffles ? If ya can do charcoal I say build yerself a drum smoker, you wont be sorry. No baffels needed , no water pan.( be...
not sure about the chain. I had a couple washers that were and I had thrown them in the drum during the burn out along with the chain. chain cleaned up like new so not sure if it outgased or not. if not then I doubt it will at the distance its at under smokin temps.

Welcome Marko ! Check out the free 5 day coarse to get ya on yer way to even better smokes.Snow smokin eh ? Wont be the only one here doin that but not gonna happen where I'm at !
Thats one of the drums best features . The grill is 24 inches from the lower grate , and the vent control is so precise you just dont need a water pan. The juices from the meat drip down into the fire and vaporize causing moisture and awsome smells !!
Yes , a bottle opener would work . Coarse Bubba has already done it !! Figured the mini - cuttingboard shelf would be good fot holding a towel as well as my thermometer. Wanna put a couple hooks for tongs e.t.c.
Burnt out , cleaned out , and for no good reason at all lit a applewood fire in it to pre-season a bit.
Assembled my ash pan onto the threaded rods ( stainless )
Added the basket
Attatched the grill
sawed rods off then added hinge and chain
added a trowel for front handle...
