    Need help

    Well it's my bad.. Thanks for your replies.. Just to be sure I went out & tried to tighten the big plastic knob that tightens onto the tank, & lo & behold the thing turned a bit more.. I thought it was tight but obviously not quite enough.. there was enough looseness to not get enough fuel. I...

    I got a Gosm smoker from Walmart a 3405.. Got it assembled, hooked it up to a brand new tank, & it lit right up, big flame on high, & turned it down to low & the temp was 300.. checked it again & the fire was out.. After a few tries it lit again, but in a short time the flame got smaller &...

    Wally World 3405BGW

    Yup, just couldn't resist a test run.. Figured it might still be too cold once I get home to fire it up.. Besides I convinced the Mrs. that we needed Jerky to chaw on the trip.. It's aired out pretty good , but heck it's a rather pleasant smell, err I mean Aroma.. Tempted to make another batch...

Now I want to purchase the smaller version GOSM 3405BGW from Walmart for my son, but I notice it doesn't have any vents at the bottom on the sides, only one at the top for smoke.. Will this work OK...

    Drilling a hole for ET-73

    Thanks Oillogger, & Dutch , you should put Whiz in front of your name.. Great idea.. NOW, judging by the pics, the shiny part goes against the smoker, and the joints are all covered with the silver tape.. How about the insulation, will it get weathered bad? looks like the blue plastic or paper...

    Drilling a hole for ET-73

    Thanks for your reply PigCicles.. Really no huge concern , only a couple of dumb thoughts.. one is the ditance for the probe wires to go, a foot or so to the chimney hole, then down to the ham or whatever on the bottom rack.. I was going by the old theory of mine, shortest distance between 2...
