Hello all, thank you for reading me,
TL : DR : looking for resources/dimensions for the air gap mod and diffuser for a Pit Boss Austin XL
My name is Martial, I live in France where pellet smokers and grills are kind of a new thing. I spent some times in some American friends's house last year near Morristown NJ where I discovered these kind of grills and decided to purchase one myself.
Before I continue please forgive me if what I'm asking is illegal in any way, if so I'll remove my messages.
I purchased an Austin XL, scrolled through the internet beforehand and saw a lot of interesting mods to add to the assembly to make this machine a real competitor before realizing some are hard to come by where I live.
My concern is in regards to consistent heat management and I'd like to install two things, the heat difuser above the fire pit and the air gap filler for the left side of the diffuser plate. I'd like to build them myself, I am generally skilled in mechanics and metal working, but in order to make sure I do a good job I would like to ask the community if someone has the dimensions and thickness of both these elements ? I think I may be able to get these dimensions myself but since there is existing solutions that fit perfectly if that's allowed I could reuse the same dimensions.
In last resort I could purchase those directly from smokeslikeaboss but with shipping from the US of A I'm looking at triple the price it should be.
Again thanks for reading me
Martial
