Greetings everyone,
I have been peeking in on SMF for a while now and recently joined. Hoping to get some thoughts on a proposed smoker build. I am looking to build a patio sized smoker - mostly cook for me and the wife these days, and I would like to do something in the vain of Squiggles Wombat:
and the Shirley 24x36.
Here is a sketch of the tank I am working with:
And here is the direction I would like to take it:
I find myself stuck in a bit of a "chicken or the egg" situation, I can't determine the volume of the cooking chamber until I know how much of the tank has to be devoted to the area beneath the baffle plate which cant be determined until you know the volume of your cooking chamber. So, how do i get a design and start making sparks??
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
