is Blowin Smoke!
for the 26er. Wanted to find out what all the brew-haha was about.
Material was .1" mild steel leftover from previous projects. Laid out and cut the piece that lines the kettle.
Bent it on my trusty Harbor Freight 20 ton press.
It fits!
These 2 straight pieces took the most time to make/fit. If I had a stack of nickels for every hour....
Welded up! Holds exactly 1 quart of water which I never use.
Made a charcoal grate for just in case I decide to burn lump.
Got it workin!
fwiw - I like it! Am glad the bottom of it is open - makes for ez removal of the unit while leaving the charcoal on the grate for cleanup.
My friend Jason S supplied photos that were a big help with the project.
