How much for a day of handy work? Damn.

Also, how big is your firebox. Is it insulated? I was thinking of 24x24 for mine, but that may be too big. I don't know. There are so many dif designs out there.

Mine is 24x24 with a v shape built into the bottom. It's not insulated, with the exception of the air void areas the v creates. I did the v instead of an actually rack for thr logs, just to keep it ultra simple. I can put my logs I side ways, just enough airflow under them for clean smoke, and just control temp/air flow with the notches for the fire box door and the stack damper.

My fire box is probaly on the bug side for a 90gallo. Tank. It's all 1/4 plate, takes a pretty decent 4 log fire to get it rolling and up to temp, but once it is, only needs a log or so every hour to hold at 300dev

I used this for reference when building mine. Like I said, I think 24x24 is a little on the large side for a 90 gallon tank, that said, if I were building it again today, I would still do the same size, only change I would make is to make the v a little more steep, would allow for even more air flow when you get a big bed of coals and reduce the volume a little bit too
