Knows what a fatty is.
First, Thanks to all for what I have learned thus far.
My UDS build has begun. Burned off the paint, wire wheeled inside and out- painted the outside and "oiled" the inside with cooking spray.
My wallyworld kettle grill lid will not fit without either cutting off the lip of the drum, or basically flattening the lip of the kettle lid. I discovered- while painting the bottom, that the kettle lid fits the bottom perfectly. So...
I can obviously cut out the bottom and make it the top- but I worry about the lid leaking too much air making my cooker uncontrollable. This was an open head drum, with a somewhat bulky locking ring- ring should be no problem if I either add casters, or simply set drum upon properly spaced blocks. Making the top the bottom may make the drum easier to clean (?)
Remove the gasket and run a bead of high temp silicon- hopefully sealing the lid ( bottom ) ? I am trying to make my way through the monster that is the UDS thread- but I swear it grows the same amount that I can read each day...:crazy:
I call upon the Bretheren Drumheads for wisdom and thoughts. :hail:
