Getting ready to cut the charcoal box, need opinions before point of no return

[kcphilaflyer]

Bought a 16" Yoder Cheyenne last week, and slowly learning my way.

Found some expanded steel and am going to try out a charcoal box.

Dimensions are 12x12x6, seems like a good fit to me, but figured I would get opinions around here before I make the actual cuts.

Just want to make sure it isn't too tall/short, not wide/deep enough or too wide/deep, or maybe it doesn't really matter and I'm just overthinking it, but better to be sure than waste $20.

Here are a couple pics of the cutout test.............

Thanks in advance for any help!

oh yea, 1st post, great source of info around here!
