    Hardware Question for UDS

    Anyone have a suggestion for removing the larger bung on the cover? I purchase a bung tool...unsuccessful. If I can't get it off I guess I will make some holes to attach some pipes and elbows for exhaust vents.

    Closed lid drum off using an angle grinder. Next step to measure and drill openings for grates and venting.

    QUESTIONS for you MES30/40 users

    I have a MES 40 and use the AMNS. I remove the chip tray and pull out the chip loader various lengths from an inch to almost all the way out. I adjust as I feel the need to control the smoke. The top vent is wide open. No water tray. I have had no problems keeping the AMNS lit.

    Hardware Question for UDS

    I was able to obtain a 55 gall drum free of charge from the school district I work at. That's the good news. The challenge will be getting the cover off, tight drum, Has anyone used an air hammer with chisel attachment to assist in this matter? Once the top is off, can it be used as the cover...

    Hardware Question for UDS

    As previously stated, I am looking for stainless u-bolts to help attach the charcoal expanded metal to the charcoal grate. As another option, would anyone suggest using stainless self locking ball locking cable ties? Any challenges doing it this way?
