    "Baron Von Schwein" 120 Gallon Horizontal Tank RF Build. QVIEW!

    bigbill, We are doing a reverse flow which means the temps in the main chamber should similarly regulated throughout. I was kind of under the impression that the temperature control is done by regulating the fire temp. We are going to incorporate a auto temp control system to regulate the temps...

    "Baron Von Schwein" 120 Gallon Horizontal Tank RF Build. QVIEW!

    Great idea Teesquare... have you seen any circular firebox builds which had a rib box like you're describing? Dougmays, Before today I was convinced there would be no way for us to build a trailer. However, my uncle showed me how to MiG weld this morning and I was pleasantly surprised how easy...

    "Baron Von Schwein" 120 Gallon Horizontal Tank RF Build. QVIEW!

    Lowered the door to provide more internal height. Now at 14.25". Bottom of door is about 3" below center... is this going to cause any issues? Also lowered the smoke stack as suggested. Any comments?

    Fattie weave

    I just read a post on this site on another method of weaving bacon... looks like the same concept but they lay it out flat and then roll the fatty around it. http://cowgirlscountry.blogspot.com/2010/02/bacon-weave.html

    That would be awesome Michael! I am planning on using an arduino uno as the controller. I'm currently taking an auto controls and an instrumentation class and have always had the itch to get into electronics. I will definitely hit you up when I'm ready. THANKS!

    Woo! Let the build begin! I'm the other brother by the way... Does anyone have any feedback on door size/location? I have read that you should avoid cutting the bottom of the door any lower then half way down the front of the tank because fat could run down the door and out the bottom. The...
