    RF Build: A Story in Pictures

    Well, you're probably in better BBQ country than I am; I expect there's a reason it's called the Kansas City BBQ Society. I've done a bit of flying in my time, and I always figured Wyoming for God's country.  Why?  Because there isn't anybody else who lives out there!  Great trout fishing...

    RF Build: A Story in Pictures

    I picked up some heavyweight pipe about 6" in diameter when I bought my steel; I'll probably fab up a couple of arms and weld on a length of pipe, then fill it with sand until I get the weight right. You don't say where you're from, but here in the Oklahoma City area, I've had good luck with...

    Yes, it's 3/8" wall gas pipe.  For the burnout, I picked up a few firebricks to elevate the pipe a few inches (for airflow), then set the pipe on them vertically and filled it with wood.  Cottonwood, mostly, as I have a bunch of it sitting around.  Once I got it lit, it burned aggressively--the...

    Post-Christmas update: Following a successful burnout, I finally found a set of hinges I like for the CC door at Northern Tool, and got them ordered: Next, I marked off the cut line for the top of the CC door (just the top cut; I'll cut the other three after the hinges are welded on).  A...

    Well...almost.  I graduated, but I missed the bar by four points (260 scaled score, with 264 being passing).  I'll be savoring that experience again come February. <sigh> I appreciate the thought, though.

    RF Build: A Story in Pictures

    Back in action! When last we left, I had managed to tack up a couple of squares to be used as the firebox frame.  Since then, I've accomplished this: It's been a long five years, but I finally escaped from law school.  The bar exam is over, so last night, I went out and did a little...
