Size of charcoal basket?

[brick]

What are the correct measurements for the charcoal box I'm having made for the firebox of the Trailmaster Vertical Smoker?

I had mine made as large as possible to fix in the firebox door. Works great.

Ok
Ok, I've figured it out. For this size firebox it should be 10"x14"x7". This gives the maximum efficiency of airflow and heat.

This is what I was looking for. It has a 2" clearance all the way around. I've had a regular Trailmaster and the basket I had made was too large and it burned out the firebox a little too quick. This is 10x14x7 inches. Perfecto.
