    So true. Cause I don't do it everyday I forgot how difficult it can be. I learned it well when I built my smoker. If anyone is into BBQ I am a huge fan of gravity fed smokers and when I built mine I had to do a lot of heat management when welding. I built mine for $1300 because buying them can be between $5-7K. That was 2015 so I was a little rusty when I took a stab at Version 1.0 but 2.0 turned out beautifully. Update coming soon on dash.
