And of course, here is my wacky reverse flow plate ideal......and remember, the Wright Bro's went through a few designs too......
Im going to weld in a f-f 3/4 coupling into the left side of the chamber, and just cut a 1 1/4 hole at the end of the grease trap on the right , This will alow me to remove the pipe through the firebox if ever need be. There should not be much of a gap around the pipe to let enough air through to worry about.
If my reverse flow holes are not big enough, I can just punch a few holes in with a hole saw on the top plates towards that end. But Im kind of excited about the way it is now.
