Knows what a fatty is.
My Old Country Pecos showed up yesterday, all in all I am pretty impressed with the quality when considering I only spent $400 on it. Went through the initial burn last night and noticed it's leaking from the door on the cooking chamber and firebox grill section. I somewhat anticipated this so I ordered some Lava Lock and RTV ahead of time, that should be arriving today.
I noticed they only tack welded the buffer plate, I was thinking of running a bead of JB Weld around it. Would that be a bad idea?
They did the same thing with the framing around the door cutout on the inside of the cook chamber and fire box. I don't know that RTV will do any good in the fire box but I do plan to line the door frame of the cooking chamber. I will also be sealing the cook chamber door with Lava Lock, I was wondering if it is capable of withstanding the heat in a firebox? I got the 1/2" by 1/8" Lava Lock.
