Thanks guys dirtytires there will be a 1/4 under the lower tube with a 2.00 opening to the back off the CC . So with my false wall in place I will have a build in water pan. I was thinking something under the plate that makes the top of the firebox maybe I don't need anything yet no sure kinda wingi...

Well started to build my RF vertical coming along good so far.
I was thinking about putting some kind of heat deflector in the
fire box ? Overall height 54 inches CC @ 24.00 X 26.00 deep 34 inch tall.

Thanks Gotcha929 I ordered my upright tubing a little longer so if I want to go taller in the firebox I can . If that was a pic you sent I couldn't open it.Should be starting the build this week how tall is your firebox and all work well I asume with your build good air flow ? I keep going back and ...

Thanks Dirtytires,
The firebox will be lined with 3/16 thick was on print not on question list.
I think I'm going in right direction may shorten firebox a little, seems like

I hope I get input ...

Chromeski I have I actually watched a video on the Mixon design I'm as green as they come. You would think
something like that it would be hard to control the heat but what do I know. pretty simple design charcoal in
amber falls thru grates chuck some wood on it.

Hi and thanks for the welcoming . Hopefully I'll have something basic for the experts to look at in a few days. To answer your question Towtruck right or wrong I like the all in one idea behind the vertical with CC under it as my maiden voyage . I also like the RF concept I'm looking at. Also a lear...

Hello people! My name is Steve I've been doing BBQ for many years on big box store equipment. That being said I've had enough of that! Time to build my own and hang with all the big dogs here to absorb their knowledge I hope. I've been in the metal industry for many years. From fabricating flame cut...
