Hi All,
I have a flat lid for my UDS and so far, if I don't use the clamp that secures the lid to the drum, the lid does not sit flat on the drum which of course allows smoke to escape. My lid seems to be a little warped.
I've seen several photos of other UDS builds where the lid seems to sit flat on the drum. I do have a Weber kettle lid I was thinking of using but I would need to add a metal strip around the inside of the drum and that would mean I could no longer use my flat lid and I don't know if I want to do that yet.
Any suggestions on what I can do to get my lid to sit flat on the drum? I really would like to solve this problem with the flat lid.
Thanks
Bimmerdad
