@mattgregory1 nice setup, looks like you've got a great little helper there, too! I imagine the old barrel adds a little of its own flavor to the end mix as well. Did you catch those trout yourself? Nothing in the world like fresh trout!

Oh my that looks great good job.

thx for all the info. happy new year!

Exactly. Have a look at my other vids, I am on Mk. VI now...
-
awesome. so once you start the fire using the gas flame it keeps smoldering by itself?
-
Got them both, replies should be showing...
The flue on Mk VI is about 6 meters, but on Mk V was only about 1.5m.
You could have it come in at the bottom, but then you would have to prop the barrel up quite a long way and mine is VERY heavy.
The fire box is now a galvanised dustbin, so about 70cm high and 40cm across. It has 6x8mm holes drilled right at the bottom for draw, and the saw dust is stacked to one side. I go for as dry as possible, but a little bit of dampness helps prevent flare..
Ay, quick question, mate.
Do you have a hole cut in the bottom of tha trashcan for which your burner fits inside of it?
Because I dont see how you are smoking inside of the trash can without actually having the burner IN the trash can.
How are you doing it?

Hello,
1- 6x8mm holes drilled at the bottom on the side of the bin, otherwise there would be no draw of smoke.
2- Burner underneath the bin to ignite sawdust, not to raise the temperature.
3- Not smoking in the bin, only used to generate the smoke, hence all the ducting to the barrel.
Read the other comments, and if you are still confused, ask again.
