• 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.

I've noticed that the damper from my firebox to the warmer slides perfectly fine when the smoker is cold, but once it's up to temp if I try to close or open the damper it gets stuck. Once the smoker cools down it goes back to sliding without any issue. Has anyone else had a similar experience? If so have you found a way around it or do you just set it at startup and leave it alone?
 
I would look at the rods that slide , maybe one got bumped during the shipment and got bent a little ? or maybe some gunk from a cook ?
