So I'm looking to do some internal modifications to help make my smoker more heat efficient. Nothing extensive, but want to add a 1" lip around firebox's door to create something for it to seal against. Currently the door was just cut out of the side then put on a hinge, so it leaks a fair amount and makes temperature control more challenging. Also want to add 2 rails along the inside of the cooking chamber to add movable tuning plates. I could just cut these to rest on the inside walls of the drum, but wanted something a little nicer.
Anyone know if this stuff will work for what I'm trying to do? Since none of it would really be structural I was hoping it might just work like a high temp glue. I have been looking at welders and watching videos on the how too and looks like with some practice I could tackle it. I just don't want to spend the money on a decent welder and only use it once, and fear the cheap ones might be more trouble than they are worth.
