Re: Changing stack

I wish someone would make a topic on building one of these covers for a trailer. Try as I might I cannot wrap my mind around how to pull it off.

Re: Changing stack

I don't know how well it would work but what about a larger stack in the roof that comes down to within 6" of your stack to an upside down funnel shape to catch most of the smoke?........just a hair brained idea and I ain't got much hair left... =)) Might just be easier to make new one's but if the...

Re: Changing stack

Tack on an extension the same size and see what happens before you finish. Thanks for the reply I am afraid if I go the same size that long it won’t flow correctly. I’ll have to go to the shop tomorrow and measure. 4” pipe would need to be 55” to be the same volume as the 6”. If will stick out I ma...

Mesquite is plentiful around here and burns hot. I love it.

I put the wire through some 1/2 round pipe under the frame of the trailer.

Re: Archuleta family reunion smoker

Hey bstory, I've just been reading through your build - incredible job, that thing looks awesome! Just curious if you could give a rough estimate of what it ended up costing you? Also, given that you've had it a short while, anything you'd change? Sorry I haven’t been on here in a while. Unfortunat...

Changing stack

Hey guys, well I went full bore on putting a roof on my smoker and didn’t think about the stack. As long as the calculations come out ok, I’ll be ok just to put a smaller diameter pipe that is long enough to get out from under the roof, correct? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190820/bf006ae436c6...

Re: RF insulated cylinder FB with warmer questions

Just my opinion, but I would consider making the entire firebox out of plate and make it all square and the place your cylinder on top for the warmer. So if you are doing insulated, build a square firebox to the specs needed and then an outer box to hold the insulation and inner box. The round FB i...

RF insulated cylinder FB with warmer questions

The entire FB except the bottom plate should be insulated. Put the cylinder on top of the FB with a 4” piece of round pipe with a slide plate to control how much heat will go into the warmer.

Re: Archuleta family reunion smoker

I used 1/4. I definitely would not use 3/16 for the FB it won’t last. If I ever build another, I will use 3/8 for the FB. It just gets so hot. I did use it for a cooking competition this weekend. It was the first long cook. Stayed 350 for 16hours. I only put ONE split of mesquite every 1.5 hours. Ve...

Thanks. The ones I got from Frank were awesome, but I would have had to move my rack to get the set fro the cook chamber to work right so I made these instead.
