Back at it again, so here it is. My version of an air burner/pit controller intake/blah blah blah...
Hole in the bottom for a 1" pipe nipple(giggitty)
Through the bottom and the heat shield.
With elbow and factory barbed end fitting. There should be no heat issues w the plastic fitting being below the heat shield.
Here's the first fitting of the burner parts.
All soldered together and ends smashed flat. Wanted the save the $6 on copper caps. Project started getting a bit pricey.
Holes drilled. Less holes at the begining. More towards the end. In theory, should help regulate air flow and hopefully help distribute the air more evenly.
Charcoal grate installed.
And when the cook is done, take off the burner, hook the shop vac up to the intake barb, and vac all the ash out! No more scoopin or dumpin!
Doing a five pound chuck shoulder roast tomorrow. We'll see how goes it! Fingers crossed.
