I live in east Tennessee and would pay for someone to make a UDS for me. Any takers? I can get free 55 gal drums with the lids that were only filled with candle wax material so nothing toxic inside
Ditto that.There is no welding needed. I made mine with zero welding involved.
We are still here I guess. haha Still flooding every year but what can you do. When you build a city on top of a river that floods every year you can expect to be fighting the flood every spring. I found a few good pages with directions on how to make up a UDS I will see if I can find them but they may be saved on my work computer. Funny thing is my brother is coming to town this weekend and I think we are going to make him a UDS as well since he likes mine so well. Google UDS or how to make a UDS and you will find some good sites with directions on making them.I'll give it try after I find some in depth directions...How's ND rbranstner? I move to TN from Grand Forks the summer of the 1997 flood
Here is the ABSOLUTE, HANDS DOWN, BEST thread anywhere on the Internet about building a UDS.I'll give it try after I find some in depth directions...How's ND rbranstner? I move to TN from Grand Forks the summer of the 1997 flood
Yep. Load up your basket interspersing 4 or 5 fist sized chunks of wood with the charcoal. Light 10 to 15 briquettes and let them get white hot. Place them on top of your charcoal pile in the charcoal basket and let her go.So minion method I'm assuming and since there isn't a side door I'm guessing you place wood in places to gradually burn as the outer coals catch?
