Found some matches.
Hello brethren. I've been looking thorugh this site and others to help me make a decision but i'm coming up short. My current UDS has the flat top, 8 hole configuration. I want a second grate so I'm deciding between going the Weber Kettle route or buying a second drum, cutting it down and using that for the lid. Seems the vast majority of UDS's I see pics of and hear about use either the kettle lid or say with the flat top - why? Why is the kettle lid the prominent option even if it can take some fab work to get it to function properly? Is there some serious benefit to the dome shape? Is there a serious design flaw in going the second drum route? To tall, too heavy, etc? I can't find a decent kettle lid on CL or at garage sales, don't want to spend the money on a new kettle just to throw most of it away. I can get a refurb'ed drum for $20 at the local barrel shop. Looking for you wise insights and opinions.
