Some people collect coins some collect stamps, red X’s why not. Should’ve backed up your fileI lost all my red X's I accumulated over the years.

Plumbing the smoker into the shop chimney was one of the best ideas I’ve had in awhileDamn that smoker sounds like a win win.

watch out for grease fires in the chimney
Good idea and much better than being outside in the cold.

Oops, I didn't know that was your line of expertise so I'm sorry if I spoke out of ignorance. guess I think of restaurant grease fires and didn't want to hear of that happening here.
Better to say something than not. Wasn't out of line at all.
Off to work have a good day guys.

No No I really thank you for your input it was something I never thought of. Creosote from wood is an age old problem and I can see grease from the smoker adding to that problem. Got a few ideas already and have to do some research thanks again
Winter has arrived in a big way here. We had a high of 41* Saturday afternoon, but by evening the temperature dropped into the low 20s and snow started. By Sunday morning we had 4 to 5 inches, and currently it's -9*f. Should be a little bit milder towards the middle of the week, but -20 for a high Friday.

The town lost a Civil War era Victorian to a chimney fire over the weekend.
Sad to hear that.

What's worse, there's not many of those left. Lincoln had all MoKan border towns burned during the Civil War.

So I need you guys that live out that way to help keep me updated on the weather Friday night into Saturday. My son is set to pick up a car in Joplin Missouri Saturday morning. He is driving a rental truck out and picking up a U-Haul trailer to pick the car up and bring it to Tennessee to visit his grandma then home Sunday night.
I’m no professional but I know they do not recommend running 2 stoves on one chimney. A guy not too far from me almost lost everything. He had an attached apartment over a garage. He told the tenants to not use the garage (bottom) stove. Well, they did not use it but they did stack some combustible material on it. Yup, nasty fire.

Not a good time to visit. I'm 60 miles North of Joplin, snow showers expected, with temps in single digits overnight.

The steel pipe installed in your masonry chimney that allows you to hook your stove up.
