And on the eighth day God created barbecue …. because he DOES love us and he wants us to be happy.

Here's a few more pictures. I was able to get the decking down and the wood box finished. Also swapped out the 4 leaf spring on the pit side for a 5 leaf to help level things out a bit.
I left the open space under the upright for access to the drain valve. I just need to fabricate a door to clean up the look.
I'm just dying to pull this thing out of the shop and have a test burn to see how she acts. Maybe Sunday...
Here's the first fire. The rain rolled in so I shut her down after 3 hrs but, with only minimal adjustments to the tuning plates I only had a 25 degree temp difference between the vertical and the main chamber.
