    Team names....

    Man it's been a while, but hopefully be around a little more often. Is there a protocol for picking team names and logos?  Do you have to register/patent your name and logo?  Any info on how to start up a team would be greatly appreciated.

    Slowly but surely....

    I finally aquired a trailer for my reverse flow smoker. I gave $200 for the trailer. Everything was bolted on. Should be able to move the axle to balance the pit. Hopefully I will have some drawings that I would like to have some opinions in a little bit.

    UDS lid fit...

    It took 2 months but I finally got an old weber grill off of craiglist. My question is how tight does the lid have to fit? Does it have to be air tight or just set on top with gaps.

    Need some opinions......

    Do you think this would work? It is to increase the cooking area of a UDS. I drew it in cad so if it work I'll post some dimensions. I've got a few drums to mess with, but I got frig I want to modify first. If it ever warms up around here.
