Congratulations Now its time to get cookin! You are in for some great Q and the added satisfaction, everytime you make someone happy with the grub, that it comes from something crafted with your own two hands.

Its a 24x24x24 x 1/4" FB and 6-1/8" ID x 1/2" Exhaust...

I think keeping the stack hot with a 1/2" pipe is a good idea, should help keep the smoke hot and get a better draw....

Well... tonight I wiped the entire inside of the pit down with Veg. Oil... and LIT THE FIRST FIRE!! After all the work, time and money to build this farking thing.. I finally lit the fire, Seems to work well so far, the design seems to have a nice even heat, temp is controlled with the stack damper.. A bag of stubbs and some chunks of hickory made it happen tonight... Tomorrow morning going to the farm to get some split hickory that has been drying... should be awesome wood for smoking.... Great thing about Wisconsin... Plenty of Hickory and Oak around here!

Plan on thowin down some ribs tomorrow for its ma din voyage...

Looks great! Any reason you built the firebox on the left hand side?
