Will work fine with appropriate Damper . Built a 250 a few years back with 8" scrap stack works great . Having said that fire box dimensions and venting are most critical! There are calculators and very knowledgeable people here! Enjoy your build .[emoji481]

They make metal cutting blades for Standard 7 1/4" circular saw . Having said that it will need to be one with steel or Aluminum dust chute or things will go south quick! These blades are usually less than 10 bucks and cut a straight line just go slow and let it eat . https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.co...

There are several on Builds on the site utilizing gas shocks . Pretty sure most are mounted external to keep from heat and piston getting contaminated. There was also a build awhile back with hood springs . Most builds with big doors just use counter balance positioned to releave some of the right a...

I was able to make a deal today and secure a 325g tank for a great deal. Seems that this tank is an odd size. Anyone have any experience with this size tank? I will agree that 325 Gal. Is odd 250-500 is the norm . Having said that the calculators available here will work with any size [emoji106] a ...

I was dealing with a steel supply yard, made more phone calls today to other gas/propane suppliers, a few told me it was against federal law to sell me “non certifiable” tanks. They suggested contacting scrap/junk yards. A Mack style is always a possibility but as crazy as it sounds I just have had...

Hello everyone, I’ve been in the hunt for a 120g or 250g propane tank to start my RF build. I can’t find tanks around my area for the life of me. Has anyone had any luck getting 30” diameter pipe from a steel supply to use as a CC for a build? Unfortunately Propane tanks have become pretty hard to ...

This stack location is like one of your examples and works very well. Stack is 8" and oversized for pit (free pipe).

Hey guys, looking for a certain type of sealant for the CC doors, it's looks like a melted black rubber or some other material. I've seen it on a couple of pits, and its unlike the felt gaskets that are out there. Maybe some kind of black silicone or something similar? Any help you can provide woul...

I'm far from an expert but , I think your good with those dimensions. With it being a fraction over it will breath good . One of the experts will be able to give you a definite answer. Good luck with your build and enjoy![emoji482]

Rodcrafter has you covered !!! The increased air movement and damper will allow great control and max heat from fire ! Im gonna go out on a limb and say if he built a small offset it would still be HEAVY[emoji12]

Still sounds like a built up grease fire. Water making it spread makes it seem very likely.

Try to clean up both surfaces on cook box and door seal . place plasticc wrap to surface of cook chamber where it contacts door seal. Apply bead of RVT red to cook box door flange. Close door for 24 hours to allow to cure. RVT will not stick to plastic wrap but will conform to warp/ variations in do...

I would recommend solving the grease problem that caused the fire to begin with first . Some pics of your smoker doors would help the great folks on this forum to point you in the right direction[emoji482] Welcome to the crew.
