Another chapter in the continuing saga of the UDS deflector.
Still looking for that elusive balance between burn time and control.
A while back I found this pizza crisper from Walmart.
It was a great start but still knocked a little too much off of the burn time for my liking. I'd still like to get 10 to 12 hours of good cooking time after an hour or two of warm up time. Don't know if it's realistic but we'll see.
So . . . I need a little more airflow through the plate. Got a step bit but it's a pain with a hand drill so I went to the maintenance shop at work. They have a drill press.
No, I didn't borrow Rich's camera. It's my Blackberry camera.
Anyway, clamped it down and started drilling.
And here's what I ended up with.
I'm thinking I might need another ring of somewhat smaller holes insided the first ring, but decided to go a different route than I normally do and try 1 change at a time instead of 27 or so.
Probably won't be able to test it until next Saturday but am looking forward to the test run.
