folded it up to protect the sides of the grill when banking coals or running a snake

That's a great idea! Looks good, can't wait to see how it works!

I only use kettles with lid bales.

I`m gonna take it  apart and light a brush pile next chance I get  and burn of the paint from the barrel part  and the galvanized part too /// then keep it dry and see how long it takes to rust out  //// any ideas on other products to use would be appreciated

And so the airflow was good?

seems like it's working well just from the pics, but is there anything that needs to change?

yea the air flow was great///  after welding the pieces over the gaps I think I got it the way I want it//// took it apart and burned all the finish off in the coals of a brush pile I burnt // and then screwed her back together
