Thought I'd share a simple fix for those who use Lil Chief and Big Chief smokers, who's chip tray handle breaks due to exposure to heat.

A long 5/16" bolt with some 5/16" fuel injected fuel hose acting as a handle. The metal spacer was needed because having the rubber hose that close to the chip tray or residing right above the element was going to get a little too hot and might melt.
