Reverse Flow cooker/ Insulated Fire Box build

Post by Voigt » August 29th, 2017, 10:53 pm

Starting a new cooker for the house, hitting this site for all the tricks to make it tick! Great builds on this forum for inspiration and info. I'm working off my callucator numbers and throwing in some extra steps along the way. Hope you dig it!

Looks like I'm attending the Fall gathering this year. I have a hand full of days before I head out with this build. I had to call Frank Cox for some help with my cuts! ImageImageImageImage

Got the door knocked out with what I had on hand. Gave a 1/8" for a door gasket and the counterweight seemed to help the action. Fabing on the fly. Tick- tock!ImageImageImageImageImage
