• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

Planning stage of my next nightmare....

....have a 125 gallon refrigerant tank that I am going to use. Picked up a very ugly trailer to use. Trailer frame actually looks like it may have come from an old Chevy Luv. On the fence about a warming box. We have 3 Eggs to cook/warm things up....just like the idea of only having one cooker going...

Anyways...firebox will be insulated. May have found a piece of 1" steel that, with a bit of "finesse" will work for a firebox door. I am hoping that I can get away wit just cutting/flanging/hinging the tank piece that will be cut out for the cook chamber door. But if springs and twists like my first one did I will be building the thing into a cabinet style.

Folks with warming boxes...are they tied into just the cook chamber? Or just the firebox? Or both? What is used as a baffle?

Like I said earlier, I am on the fence about the warming box. Not sure I want to go thru that much work. And the added expense of all the metal for it. Kind of like the thought of using the top of the firebox as a wood warmer....like I do with my existing one....
 
check out shirley fabrication. they have a really nice warmer setup. i pre-heat my splits in the bottom of the warmer as it is basically the same as doing it on one without a warmer.
