So FINALLY
after delays and lack of "discretionary" funds and a little procrastination...I am starting the build.
Not getting too far out of the norm, but am thinking one major mod/improvement/debalce.
I am thinking I want to use this as smoker and grill thus want movable basket. I know I could add a set of eyelet hooks to "hang" the fire basket on. i think I am going to "cable" it with thin steel cable and a small hand winch to crank it up and down as needed.
Sounds like I'm creating a lot of work, but looking for opinions. Tried it? Better Idea? stay away from dual purpose smoker/family grill?
Thoughts, ideas and quips welcome. Thanks
