    First UDS Build

    Apric. Hey it looks great......but it looks like you might have room to add a second grate right below the top grate....that would give you more area to cook more things when needed. Just my wooden nickel's worth of info zjbird

    Mini UDS with help from Sawzall

    The solid plate was from the bottom of the original smoker and placed there cause I couldn't find much on how to build a good diffuser.  It has since been removed and I am working on how to run my mini without a diffuser.  I miss the taste I get from the drippings on the coals.

    UDS table.

    Have you ever thought of building a base out of angle iron and then welding/bolting some cheap harbor freight wheels to it.   I have done that in the past, I liked it cause the base was removable when I took the UDS to a remote location.
