    Smoker Idea

    What is the minimum distance between the RF plate and the grate.  In order for have the 61 sq in it puts my RF plate up around 7 in giving me 2 in or less is this going to cause me problems down the road? Thanks Tanner

    Planning a Reverse Flow

    There is nothing wrong with a rectangular shaped CC it is really a matter of preference.  Most people use pipe or tanks because is is a lot less fabrication.  There are lots of knowledgeable people on this site that will be able to answer questions as you get into this build.  Below are a couple...

    New build (Budget Build)

    I got the pipe cut into the 60" CC and the 24" FB.  I am getting the plate for the ends I am hoping to get back out and work on it some this weekend I hope to have more pictures by the first of the week at the latest

    No problem I appreciate the help I would actually prefer a square firebox but it's a budget build and the pipe is free So for anyone keeping track so far total cost is $0

    New build (Budget Build)

    4"x30" stack it is So by my calculations I need 60sq in under the RF. Does anyone have the formula to figure how tall to the peak of the arc of the CC/FB opening should be to get this area
