First time using this. I had some stainless scrap in the shape of a large cone so I cut the smaller end off w an Angle grinder. Used a full chimney of charcoal and dumped it in w all vents open. Quickly got up to 500F so I closed two of the bottom vents and it ran about 400F. Put the chicken breasts around the outside for indirect and then when they were about done gave them a nice crisping over the mouth of the vortex. Will be great for searing steaks too. Seems like it will give me more indirect cooking area compared to just banking.

Its pretty much an exact copy. I got lucky and the dimensions were almost identical. Mine just isnt polished and pretty.

Kinda like the big poppa setup with the basket up high, it's nice having that high heat sear sometimes.
