Here's an idea I just drew up for bending expando:
http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/pi...pictureid=2030 Redneck expando bender concept: Stand with one foot on each end of the piece of pipe and use your body weight to bend the expando. Base is made of 2x4's nailed or screwed together, spread about 3.5" apart and cut as long as you need them to be (2' in this example). Pipe is ~1.5" OD. You can just work it around the piece of expando until it looks right. :icon_cool Thoughts? -Rodney |

Man this a long thread! For all the cookers having problems cleaning drippings, I use pure clay kitty litter in the bottom of the barrel. Soake up the grease and makes it easier to clean. Im sure thats in here somewhere already LOL

Do these look the same to you?

I was at Academy store today and saw the Old Smokey 3" thermometers @ 19.99 there, looked an awful lot like the Spicewine Ironworks 3" thermometer for $20. What do yall think? Here's the pics.
Academy on the left, Spicewine on the right. Might save shipping costs if you have an Academy close by. |

Is there any place locally to get decent thermomoeters...?? Everyone looks down on the hardware store thermometers... My BGE thermometer didn't work out to well when it came to mounting to the UDS. So now I'm in search of something a little better and I hope I can salvage the hole I've already drilled. Oops..!!! hahaha
I saw the post above, but I don't have Academys around here in Virginia Beach... |
Any candy or turkey fryer thermometer long probe mount just under the grate. My daughter got me a couple from Canadian Tire and one from Wal-mart all at 12.99 CDN

It came from a 1957 article in Popular Mechanics. It was on this site back in 2007. Go here for the full article:
