Beat you to it!
LOL that is great. Now share what you did and what you would do differently. :biggrin: How big are the intake holes for instance.
Or, maybe you have a thread on it that I missed?

How many support points does yours have Norco? I was thinking the interior u-bolt support system might help spread the load somewhat, but also wondering if 4 support points is enough?

Wally World sells those cheap UniFlame grills. They did sell one (and maybe still do, but I haven't looked lately) that has 24-1/2" grates that are hinged. The top measures 26-1/4" inside the lip. These might provide your grate and a domed top.

I have standard 3. Here is a pic of how a grill fits in my 85.

Very helpful post Norco -- thanks. I have been thinking 4 u-bolts, knowing that getting 4 of those suckers aligned level will be tough.

Maybe you can check with Smokin Turkey if you don't think the grate is sturdy enough.

Stupid Question...
Why can't these questions be asked & answered under the original UDS thread?
It would make your questions and answers much easier to find in the future.
Anyone that is interested in these things will certainly go to that thread.
It is the UDS Bible after all, and some of you are not showing it the respect that it deserves.
Just my two cents.

PS: Mods, when are you going to make this thread a Sticky?
It has driven a bunch of traffic to the site.
Take advantage of it.

Weiser, I though the larger sizes would have different issues than the 55 gal sized ones. It is quite a task to sort through the original posts to find anything about large ones.
I sure could be wrong and you may have a good point. It won't hurt my ego one way or the other.

Wouldn't a separate Forum for this Junk be nice?
It could be searchable without having to read through all of the crap.
Oh ya, 85's and 55's have their own issues no doubt, but the
carryover is not that much different.
I agree, that thread has almost become unmanageable.
Then again, I couldn't find my ass with both hands tied behind my back.

The reason i started the 85 thread was so you guys could hook onto it and get your questions answered, musta caught a slow week.
I see no difference in the 55 and 85 except for size. If it's built right (airtight) it'll run just like the 55.
Wouldn't want to see this get lost in the UDS thread, nuff junk in there already.
Hopefully ChineseBob will show his 85 shortly, he's only been building it for a month now. :tongue:

I wasn't criticizing anyone Bubba... just trying to figure
out how to make this information more accessible for the new folks
and easier for us older folk to find.
Na, my post was not directed towards anyone. :smile:

Lofl!!!
Bubba, it's in the Bible!
Search for Weiser's UDS. It should pop right up!
Heck, probably around page 80 plus or minus 20 pages. :smile:
It is perhaps one of the ugliest ones here.
I take great pride in that.
