Found some matches.
I have a large offset that I built from an old fuel oil drum approximately 66" wide x 27" deep x 48" inches tall. The firebox is currently in the center on the lower back side of the tank. We are having limited success with this design. I will post pics.
I want to redesign the cooker with a Stump's style gravity feeder on the end and make it a reverse flow. I have three basic questions I am hoping I can get input on.
1. How big should I make the coal chute? I was thinking 6x8 tapering to an 8x8 burn area. Is this too big?
2. How big should I make the transfer tube for a cooker this size? I've read 3x5 up to 6x8.
3. How big of a stack should I use? I was thinking an 8" stack with a damper. I have been told bigger is better on the stack. There are currently two 3" stacks on the cooker and I feel they are too small.
Any advice that anyone can give is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!
