So I wanted to try something cheap and easy. I took 2 adjustable 90 deg 3” elbows and a 12 inch smoke tube fits perfect. Works pretty good.
None because with the vent open on top it is drawing in the tube and it provides the air to keep it burning.Interesting! Do you lose a lot of smoke coming out the open lit end?
Yea I agree it popped in my head while I was at Lowes and that’s what they had. I will work on it and post updated info. I think I want to turn it vertically. Also add some type of adjustable vent at the end to regulate airflow. It just popped in my head.Great idea, although I think I would have made the pipe a bit longer, so the smoke has more time to clean up. Especially if you use this for cold or low temp smoking, like sausage or bacon.

I thought about that but there no flame and the pipe does not get to hot ro touch..Those fittings look galvanized? If so I would replace with stainless or aluminum.

Until you have a flare up. Yes for Aluminum.I thought about that but there no flame and the pipe does not get to hot ro touch..
Good point I will see what i can find. I will need make some way to slow the air down. It burns that 12 inch tube in 2 hours... It's a work in progressUntil you have a flare up. Yes for Aluminum.
you could take aluminum foil and put across your open end and experiment with different size holes to see how much air intake you actually needGood point I will see what i can find. I will need make some way to slow the air down. It burns that 12 inch tube in 2 hours... It's a work in progress
Yes for Aluminum.
Rain gutters and downspouts are usually aluminum...Good point I will see what i can find.
