Wow. That looks professional. Tell me how you did that intake

[curious aardvark]

so how small is it ?
looks decent size to me.

I took some sheet metal and pre-rolled it around an oxygen tank. The "rails" or guides are some 1" x 1/8" bar stock with shims behind it so it can slide. Seems to work good so far.

It's a 15 Gal drum. 13-1/2" inch cooking grates.

That is sweet...very nice build........so how's it working out

[mustang347]

Season burn went well. Burned for at least 10hrs. Not sure how much longer as I fell asleep. Good thing it wasn't at the tail end of a cook! Going to try and smoke something on it over the weekend. Depends on what I find at SAM,s later. Still have to find a good local butcher. Any thoughts from Chicago area members???

10 hrs. on one load of fuel!? Can't beat that I wouldn't think. That is a sweet looking build, very nicely done. Makes the old ECB seem very EC!

Dang, I thought it was a Big Green Egg "slider" vent. I've seen a couple guys do that.

Looks great.
