    novasbc's 250 gallon propane tank build

    Thinking some more about it, perhaps doing a rim of stainless angle, with expanded stainless in the middle might work well at first. I've seen some posts from other guys using expanded metal, and it seems to have worked OK. You can't get the criss cross pattern though.

    novasbc's 250 gallon propane tank build

    I'll post some pictures soon.  Last weekend I finished getting the box together, and on the trailer (temporarily, with bolts). I need to cut the factory tank legs off, and make taller ones. It is too short and makes it hard to get up hills, plus, I'm a relatively tall guy at 6'0". I finally...

    novasbc's 250 gallon propane tank build

    I've decided to put an angle to the reverse flow plate down the center to the drain. Anybody have suggestions as to the maximum angle I should do? I imagine if I make it too much of an angle it could cause unpredictability with the smoke flow.

    Now that I have the FB/CC opening cut, I'm still trying to think of how it goes together.  I wonder if it wouldn't be wise to make the reverse flow plate and the top of the firebox the same piece of metal. So, get the plate cut long enough to stick out of the side of the propane tank long...

    Finally getting a chance to work on this again, haven't been out of town where my project has been sitting since Christmas. I'm starting with tank upside down to make my cuts for the firebox.I'm going to make the firebox opening for 11.9" based on my program that implements DaveOmak's...
