Got a bit dirty yest. Lol. Changing things up a bit. Scrapping the trailer for now to save time and $. Planning to use a 120v winch for the lid instead of a counterweight. Has anyone ever tried that?

Yeah I know that look all too well.

I have a question; what are you going to hang the winch on? I mean if you're going to have a frame above the rear of the door you could use a double pulley and a chunk of iron to go up and down to lift it without power. Just a thought.

Making memories!

I can't offer any advice on the winch, but that cooker sure is looking good.

One thing about attaching to something else is making sure that it is strong enough to handle what it was designed for and the additional weight of the added force. I'm sure you knew that. I just have to say something when someone is talking my language.

I'm a Rigging Superintendent so winches get my attention. I've been rigging for 38 years. So if I see someone doing something I may be able to prevent a problem I chime in.

When you get her loaded up with Q, she'll top out at well over 1500.

Very nice.

Might have to look at making an opening in the roof to let the smoke through...
