Estimated weight of parts: Cooking Chamber (top) = 27,5kg (60.6lbs) Cooking Chamber (bottom) = 25,1kg (55,3lbs) Right side (FB+ASH+Chute) = 69,2kg (152,5lbs) Weight without the...

I know it will reduce heat preservation, but my plan is to use a good insulating material. Another idea I have is to make it as 3 separated parts: cooking chamber, air circulation(the par...
