    Exhaust pipe damper

    Just finished my 250 gallon reverse flow and I also brought my chimney down to the grate level. I have not installed a damper yet but, I have been using a piece of steel to act as a temporary damper. I would have thought that closing the damper some would create more heat in the cooking chamber...

The question that I have is that he cannot have a ton of salt. I was curious if anyone had any good rub recipes that...

    Need Opinnions!??!

    I think that the 210 is the way to go. Using the gas while welding makes for a nice clean weld. I believe the duty cycle is 20 to 30% which is ok. I also think that the 210 will do a 1/4" in a single pass. The problem with flux core wire is that it pops quite a bit and there is more time needed...

    Can I Do It ???????

    Thank you for the quick replies. I still have to season the smoker, I almost have it finished. I will probably do a trial run at home by cutting the butt into thirds and see if it works. If not, then the doggys will get a major treat. If I indeed need to do the smoke while I am on shift the day...

    250 gallon propane tank

    Weld some 2" channel iron "Strong Backs" on the inside of the walls. That will re-inforce the wall and it is cost effective and quick. Hope this helps. Erik

    cutting a propain tank

    If you have a worm gear circular saw, they make a steel cutting blade for it. It costs about $40 to $50 but when you cut into the tank there are no sparks. I used one while I was making mine. Best thing since sliced bread and it is super fast to cut. Very clean cuts with no burrs on the bottom...

    Twin Daytona Races TODAY

    I think that the racing will be much better being that they are easing up on the bump drafting and putting the race back into the driver's hands. The Hendrick camp is going DOWN this year!!!!!!. Go Roush Racing, this is the year of #17 Matt Kenseth and #99 Carl Edwards !!!!!
