On my way!!!!!!
WOW...what a thread, I am officially giving it Legendary Thread status...:wink: http://xs226.xs.to/xs226/08162/legen...medium_171.jpg Anyway, I am on my way to building my first UDS. I recently acquired 4 55 gallons drums for 5 bucks each and a older weber 22 inch grill for FREE!!. From the E on the vent I believe it to be a 1983 model. Its almost in too good of shape to ruin. It is missing its ash pan but thats easy to work around. I will be keeping it around and only borrowing the grates and lid for my UDS. I also have a brinkman electric smoken'grill that the neighbor was tossing out so I grabbed it for my ash pan/fire grate holder upper thinggy.:eusa_clapSmoker and food pron ASAP! http://xs226.xs.to/xs226/08162/grill379.jpg http://xs226.xs.to/xs226/08162/vent725.jpg |
A silicone o-ring should be OK up to around 300 deg. F.
|
Thinking out loud
a 90 degree bend on the inside of each air intake. Swirl the air inside a bit to get a bit more "convection" and smooth out temps across the grates.
Eh? Whaddya think? |

I couldn't get all the way to 90* but... http://i29.tinypic.com/2928i85.jpg :lol::lol::lol: |
Dr, there is a kink in your pipe :oops:
|
lol Not for long though. I'll be cutting sections of that for my next drum build for a friend in the next few days.. I had planed on using it for an intake on mine but money talks. :cool:
|
I've been thinkin'...has anyone tried putting an access panel on their drums...ala WSM? It would have helped a lot last weekend when I was having' issues burning lump in my briq basket. I've got a few more drums laying around I can chop up...I think I'll come up with a sketch and see what you guys think.
