I just recently received a custom built smoker. It's a really nice unit but I broke some of the 'rules' of the various calculators out there as far as dimensions go.
I've only done one cook on it so I'm not all that familiar with it yet but I feel like I was going through more wood than I thought I would.
Specs are as follows 5/16" steel. 16" pipe. Cook chamber is 40". Firebox is 21". Stack is 3" pipe and 40" long.
So the firebox is quite a bit bigger than the calculators state. I'm not sure how much that matters seeing as Workhorse pits go even bigger and say it's not an issue.
The stack is pretty long as I got him to leave it long so I could trim it down to the ideal length.
The stack exhausts higher up and not at grate level.
I guess my question is how much would should I expect to go through on a 6 hour cook? And how often should I have to be adding a split?
