We cooked some 'Za last night and I did get a little smoke out the side as the wind blew things around but only when starting the fire. I can live with that, the tunnel entrance seems too confining to me; I don't like wrestling with the door and I like to position the heat-gun pipe extension at an angle to get the fire roaring.

Just placed the chimney, haven't fired it with the chimney yet but plan to this week and will let you know. When I asked the forum originally the response was that the early versions didn't have a chimney. I just want the smoke to have a place to go where it now blows everywhere, I wasn't counting on a huge draw; I use a heat gun with a tube to get the fire roaring. I will post up a video at some point.

I'm actually working on a very similar concept as you for the flue gallery. As far as I can see in the picture from the shadows, you have open sides?
How well would you say this works with the draw/smoke? I'm worried about problems here and can't decide if I should go for it or have a connected tunnel.

also yay for the stainless steel entrance (me too). Curious to learn how you connected it to the oven and dealt with isolation & waterproofing.

Buddy's build
I have finally finished my 42" build in American Fork Utah. While I did get some slave labor in the form of generally unwilling children and a helpful spouse, I did the vast majority of it myself. Hopefully I will post more dialog with specifics of what I've done. For now, enjoy.
