from what i can tell its a softwood otherwise known as Douglas Fir everything you read points to not using softwood for smoking due to high sap levels however in this case the Douglas Fir seems to be low in sap. i have read about some small good smoked with this stuff. without seeing it its hard to ...

That's a good point Brett, Didn't think of that :lol: You do know that's like putting a blown 454 chev V8 in a mini moke. I've come to the conclusion that my garbage bin is too small for the smokia, Planning on a proper smoke house, Maybe a converted garden shed agreed there WAY too much smoke for ...

its true that i have never used it as a chip feeder but for when cold smoking the "smokai" fits PERFECTLY through the hole

Is there really a difference or is just a big price mark-up by BBQ galore this with the exception of the BigSteelKeg and Primo kamados all the rest are very minor in my opinion. Things to look out for - you want the cast iron vent on top as it is less prone to leaks - lid saver (spring thing that p...

thats the plan. i wouldnt expect a heavyish water sealed lid to be blown off, the exhaust and air intake openings are fairly big and any combustible fuel should theoretically burn off relatively quickly in the combustion chamber. i went against the idea of water due to having to constantly top it up...

Also, my engineer has a hard on for stainless steel. I have had to stop him from sneaking it into the design as I want the price to stay down

i say get rid of him

*watches on as the mods are extremely confused by these 2 posts*

There are gravity fed rocket stoves, it uses the same principal. Also the stumps and other gravity feds don't use/need a fan.
There is a pellet be smoking Jim bought that uses gravity fed pellets instead of auger driven that has many of the same design principals

Yup, like a clone but not using any box steel
At the end of the day it will be labled a stumps clone but they are essentially a rocket stove

All my own dimensions as well
