Title: Billows and the WSM
Post by: KirtonAlan on June 19, 2020, 06:54:35 AM

Hi folks,
New here.  First post.
I've got a large WSM, a one touch Platinum and just bought a 3rd gen performer as a refurb. project.
I've just obtained a billows and smoke x4 to use primarily on the WSM.  I see in the billows instructions it says tape over the other holes of the damper with the supplied flue tape.
I thought that would look pretty naff so i've got some silicone bungs to block them off, I also didn't fancy leaving the billows in situ whilst the smoker cools down, so I got a silicone stopper with a handle to replace it.  I would post images if I new how.

Cheers,
kirton:)

Welcome from Indiana. Can’t see images. I use the app from my phone to post images so I can’t advise if posting from a desktop.
