Very tempted, do I need another BBQ, or would it come in handy for Tailgate Weekends? Will be going through Chesterfield 3 times on Monday, collecting trailers from Chatsworth House.

Smokin Monkey Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Want to and really need is two different things! Thinking of a second UDS for Tailgates, as I can set them and leave. Also get two racks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokin Monkey Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Personal preference really. I like them, they are easy to build. You can make them as simple or all the whistle and bells. Just gathering bits to build another one. Drum £15.00, shelf’s £7.00 each from Homebase, old beer barrel cut in half for the fire basket (free) some 2inch pipe and 90’ elbows for air intakes, 6inch of 3 inch pipe for exhaust £20.00- £30.00. £60.00 job done. Going for something like this But with wheels on to make it easy to move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got my mind ticking over, I'm already thinking of building one... but is 6" of 3" enough?? I've just re-read this....is the 6" for the top vent??? I use a lot of copper building my brewery and I have a lot of bits hanging about. I always order from JTM they are brilliant, now they do Stainless connectors and all the fitting needed, but I'm now wondering if copper pipe would work ok. This is the SS section https://www.jtmplumbing.co.uk/pipe-fittings-c433/threaded-150lb-316-stainless-steel-fittings-c876/albion-m69 This is the copper....the compression tank connector would save a lot of time & welding ???? https://www.jtmplumbing.co.uk/pipe-fittings-c433/compression-fittings-35mm-54mm-c185/jtm-compression-fittings-compression-tank-connector-p4324 Ice.

Smokin Monkey Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Yes I have seen lots built with 22mm Copper Pipe and Ball Valves. I would put 3 Air in Pipes. Simple vent on top, about £5.00, Vent Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icefever Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 Love those vents, I made the last two for the Brinkman....I can see me ordering say 5 or 6 when we're home...mind you I could order from here then they'll be winging their way to me. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
