    My first reverse flow build

    Dave, this picture was taken from the turn, looking out of the FB to CC opening before the box was attached. Do you think my intakes could be too small? They are 8 and 6 inches in diameter. I guesstimated on the size of the cut outs and thought I went a little bigger but I'm sure I did something...

    These are the intakes. This was before the FB was mounted but this is how they are.

    My first reverse flow build

    Sorry, crazy day at work so I didn't get a chance to measure. I believe I have 5 inches at the end and 19 7/8 inch RF which should be about 99 sq in.  Just so I'm clear, are you suggesting a "tunable" RF plate, so to speak? I have 2 air intakes on the FB.

    My first reverse flow build

    Len, I added another foot of chimney and I'm still running 75-100 hotter at the turn. I think it's because my ends are flat instead of rounded and the air can't make a smooth turn so it stacks up. Could I put a deflector plate or something to force the air up or would it be better to modify it...

    Propane tank build

    Len, he's probably at work but it's a Harbor Freight flux core welder, no gas option. He'd have to give specifics as far as the amperage range.

    New Years butts

    I'm running 250-275. I haven't checked temps yet but I'm about to when I spray them again.

    New Years butts

    Just curious. I used to be stationed at Cherry Point and we would vacation in Asheville. Beautiful area.

    I put mine on at 0600, plan on wrapping around noon if the temp is right. When you foil, do you put it in a pan or just wrap it? Also, where in western NC are you?

    New Years butts

    It's porkapalooza today. Pork is really cheap for some reason ($1.62/lb) but I'm not complaining. Got 4 butts on and will be doing 20 chicken thighs later. We got a little snow last night and it's a brisk 26 degrees right now. Should be interesting keeping the smoker up to temp.

    First time reverse air flow build. 55gal drum

    Listen to Dave, he knows his stuff. So do a lot of others in here. Take it from a rookie builder like me, run and re run calculations before you do anything and you'll be fine.

    First time reverse air flow build. 55gal drum

    Based on everything I've read and using the formulas for my own build, I'm curious. Wouldn't your FB get way too hot without transferring enough heat into the cook chamber?
