Hey, I believe what i have just Pick up on CL is an a couple year old Char-broil silver smoker.. No tags on it and the owner didn't remember.. any who.. I have disassembled it to clean it up and convert it to a Reverse flow.. My first question is ..
It has a 2 piece Firebox is there and advantage to sealing the 2 halves when I reassemble them?
I have already pulled in favor and have had a stainless baffle made (
free of course) and plan on sealing the doors.
Also moving the stack back over to the firebox side. Any suggestions on how to install it? I have purchased a 3 in stove pipe 90 and a 30 piece of straight pipe. The Smoker build calculator said I only need to be about 24 in tall So I still need to shorten the straight pipe. I want to put it on the end as close to the cooking grate as I can get.. But I am not a metal guy
, I this thing was made of wood I would be golden. I am considering after i cut the hole and slip the elbow threw I was going to just JB Weld it on the outside and thinking about cutting the in incoming elbow into strips folding them back over a piece of fire rope and riveting to the side. This sounds alright?
Thanks for the help!
