I think he said I should use a split about half the size of what would be used in their 24" diameter smokers on my new 20". I'm assuming because the firebox and intake on the 20" is significantly smaller than the 24s.

What size splits did the 24 need? Makes it easier to figure out 1/2 their size

I'm not sure how to quantify what my splits look like. They show up in my seasoning video, I think that's where Chris saw them and made the suggestion. The load of oak and cherry I had delivered are about 16" long and remind me of the same diameter I used to use in our small woodstove. Like a good sized piece of firewood (but not huge). He said cut them in half with my chopsaw and try that. I plan to :)

Chris also reminded me that it's about small, clean fires. I was thinking I needed a little bit larger, clean fire to maintain the coal bed. But with smaller splits as Chris suggested to me, I think smaller, clean fires is achievable. Can't believe I didn't think of that.

I got one of the kindling cracker splitters (can’t remember who on this site had recommended them but it was a brethren)- way easier than axe or hammer and maul- and my kiddos love doing it as well. It allows me to get splits various sizes fast and easy; then i use split size to control fire better... they come in 2 sizes. Worth having a look...
https://www.kindlingcracker.com/pages/product-features And SWEEEET pit & videos! Love all the user info.
