Finally had some time to build.
Here is the build.
Took the steamer drop in that came with the Imusa pot and used it for a template.
Center punched the marks and started to drill. I used a small 1/16 drill then the step drill.
Next i drilled 4 holes around the bottom (got 1 kinda off center but no biggie. These just hold the heat diffuser. 2" from the bottom.
The heat diffuser is a 12" clay pot bowl. Cover it with aluminum foil when the 1st smoke is going.
Drilled 4 holes 3" down from the top for the top grate. All the hardware used in the heat areas is SS.
Installed a cheapo dial thermo.
Time for some smoke.
Installed adjustment handles to the top & bottom dampers.
Put a little pile of charcoal and used my Looft Lighter to start.
Added some yucky messy wood chips. (sorry forgot the chip shot)
No let the smoke roll.
Inside shot.
Think im going to skip the paint job.
