I realized that your post was intended for another purpose right after I sent it. I was chewing over why I would have to remove the pin. Thanks. The link didn't work on my iPad either - might be a shortened address in the link.

I sent note to Dennis because I made all of the other adjustments and checked the lid all around with some folded paper to make sure it clamped and was uniform. It works better than it did, and will now shut down pretty well, but smoke still floats out.

Hi - I tried the link that ckreef included and it takes me to street 404 - I see some abbreviations and tried to guess, but no luck. Would appreciate the pictures as I have smoke coming out one side...

Thanks! Doug

Re: Source for Lump Charcoal - Maui

Thanks Jeff - I've got loads of kiawe and I've been thinking about making an inverted retort - for the fun of it if nothing else.

I also came across the Competition Kingsford at Costco and they charge about $20 for 2 ea 17lb sacks. That is amazing compared to anything else I've found here. I'll try them out after I run out of what I have.

Aloha - looking for a Maui source of quality lump. So far only Cowboy and Frontier. I tried to find the Ono company, but it seems to be disconnected. Any ideas welcomed!

Mahalo!

Doug

Really excited to be waiting - if you know what I mean. Dennis says two weeks, so we'll be smokin together in Feb. This looks like great fun - and full of instant gratification!
