My dad got an old steel tank (I don't know what it used to hold, but wasn't oil or anything like that and it's safe to cut). I need to double check but I think it's 24x36; it's not very long and it's pretty big around considering the length.
Anyways, we want to build a little backyard cooker with it. How do you determine the size of the firebox relative to the size of the cooker? Is there any science to it or do we just build what we think is big enough? We already a couple really nice cookers so we'll probably end up giving it away to a friend when we're done (if it works OK). We just want to build this thing to practice since we're interested in building a larger trailer rig later on.
