The opportunity finally arrived to make the next step in my journey.:mrgreen:
I was feeling the desire to move on from the pellet pooper. Not for any other reason than I wanted to try and learn a bit more. I was really intrigued by the Gravity Fed units and did a lot of research on them. While doing so I learned more about the IVC type as well. I liked them just as much. I made a bunch of calls, and sent a lot of emails to several builders. I found almost every one of them to be fantastic to deal with and very willing to educate a potential buyer. I had settled on two or three (of both types) from some builders in Texas and other parts of the East and South. A couple of Brethren pointed me to Cascade Smokers here on the West Coast. Rob was amazing, and really took his time with me to work out what I was looking for. I found that I could get a few extra options for the savings I was getting on shipping. I finally settled on the Que-Deville model with a few alterations and upgrades. I made the order in early December, and it showed up this Wednesday! I wanted to burn it in after work tonight, but by the time I got home, it had started to rain. So tomorrow it is.
