    Needing some info before beginning start on my build

    Thanks for your feedback, Madman. I have, in fact, pulled the tub and found an insulation that looked like wood fiber. I put a match to it and it smoldered so I pulled it all out. It's an old Admiral brand, perhaps that was their preferred insulation. I have a blueprint drawn out which is a...

    Insulatiion: complete tear out or partial?

    Thanks. When I 'm learning something new, I like to understand why I"m doing something as opposed to just following along behind what "so and so" did. I want it done right. Your explanation makes good sense. I'll be getting the roxul today. Happy Smoking.

Before I begin, I would like to understand why some do one thing and others do another. I know some things are just personal preference but...

    Hi everyone, There's an old Admiral refrigerator sitting under my shed I wagged home last night. I enjoy DIY projects and cooking and for many years have cooked over fires with dutch ovens and big cast iron pots. This is going to be a new adventure.
