Soooooo it’s usually only me and my girlfriend who eat food off the grill. I’ve got a 57cm weber kettle and I’ve also got a Smokey Joe.
I like using my vortex for wings, thighs and breast. But using my 57 kettle is just over kill for me and my girlfriend.
So I’ve seen posts about mini vortex that fit in the Smokey Joe and that would be perfect for me. I’m not a fabricator or anything so I can’t make one. Also I can’t find anywhere that sells them!!! Can anyone help me source one or send me blue prints so I can maybe send it to a fabrication shop or something?
Thankyou
 
I've heard of people just cutting a hole in the bottom of a stainless steel bowl and using that. Might not look pretty but I'm sure would do the job.

Make sure it's SS, don't use aluminum. It'll be hard to cut through, maybe start by drilling a hole through the center
 
The Vortex site shows the mini (Tim's link) is 6" at the narrow end, leaves 4" on either side of the Smokey's grate, enough for wings.
