Cherry Blossom wood for smoke?

Need CC gasket advice
my CC doesn't leak bad but I'd like to seal it better. 1/8" thick nomex was too fat. Is there a thinner gasket or a way to make my own? These are about to go on!- busmania

Teach me how to smoke on my offset! Please?
Yall are awesome. Thank you! I am hoping to cook this weekend so I'll try preheating my splits. It was a lot of trouble but I loved every minute of it. It was my first real welding project and I learned a ton! I love projects though. Since I didn't have any major work to do on my vw bus...- busmania

Teach me how to smoke on my offset! Please?

I ended up going with the exact numbers from the calculations for everything. Actually, my fb is about 25% oversized but...- busmania

Teach me how to smoke on my offset! Please?
Here is my background. I have owned a Big Green Egg for about 3 years. I was getting bored and needed a project so I built a reverse flow out of a 33 gallon craftsman tank. I have used it twice. It seems to be smoking waaatoo much but maybe I am just used to very minimal visual smoke because...- busmania

My first build, help me please! reverse flow
Done! Well, I still need to paint it and put on the spring handles but it is now useable. I am very proud of how it came together! Thanks to everyone here who helped me! Yesterday I did a test run/break in. Today I cook! It easily held temps from 200-375 so I am happy!- busmania
