The doors are a thicker guage than the ild model. It shuts nicely but you will still need the sealing kit IMO. Get some extra fiberglass to seal the top and bottom of the firebox.
I know this thread is really old, But it is such a nice build. I am bumping this thread so other newbies can find it. How has the smoker held up over the years? Are you still using it?

Thanks, I start posting pictures when I pick up the Brisket. I will probably start with one, and go from there. I love pastrami so I am really looking forward to this.
Great Thread, I know this is old, but it convinced me to give it a try. It will be a few weeks before I can give a try. Looking for a Brisket this weekend. During the brine, you keep it in your Beer Freezer, What temp is that?
Thanks, I do pretty well with pork butt and beef chucks and rounds.I hope to do a brisket soon. But I really want to try a pastrami.

I several Cast Iron Pans, most of them are newer Lodge models, but I do have one Wagner ware that I got at Volunteers of America. I continue to scour Garage sales for a Dutch oven. I don't care about the shape it is in as long as it does not have any cracks. Plan to do just as you did if I find one.
I always thought this would be a great idea. Did you seal off the original stack? Or do you just close it? I would think this would help the temp normalize more across the chamber. Did you weld or use nut and bolt? I suspect it may be comming out the water access door. Be careful if that is...
