Hi all,
We are still in Iso over here in Melbourne (Australia), and still in Stage 4 lockdown.. So being so, have had some time to work on the pit.. (our ski trip had to be cancelled, so have a couple of days off work!)
Here is the latest update:
Got the grates sorted (Weber Genesis Series 3) and the relevant slider.
Set up the cook baffles and mounting tracks
Put on a little chimney cover.
Set up the rotisserie option (bracket attaches next to FB end.. (no photos of that)
Installed a couple of probe holes. (Can just see them next to the chimney smoke collector - in next photo)
Oh, and created the overhead counterweight .. (which is removable- locked in with clips) just need to add some more weight to get it just right..
I tested the smoke processing, again lit a small paper fire, smoke came out via the chimney.. ! YAY!
Next up on the list todo:
Upper cook grate
FB handle
Cook chamber coal basket (for rotisserie option)
Need to sort the drain pipe/plug for the fat..
Keep cleaning up the welds..
Clean up/burn in / maybe some Hi Temp paint.
So, in all, getting there.. hopefully a few more full days should get me over the line..
Thanks for reading.. !
