Hey guys (and gals),
I'd been trolling these for a bit before I bought a 008 from Cabella's over the weekend of the forth. I've now used it a couple times (after seasoning it) with pretty good results, but had a few concerns.
First, sometimes, out of the blue, a gust of smoke will shoot out of the hole in the top with a decent amount of force. I'm not quite sure why this is happening. Most of the time it is a very small trickle of smoke escaping, but twice I've been out there when it just shot out like a guieser. Is that normal? Can anyone explain what's going on just then?
Second, there seems to be more smoke seaping out from around the door than there should be. It's only only on the hinge side of the door and I'd estimate about as much comes out there than through the hole on the top.
Now I did have to get the floor model from Cabella's, would that have anything to do with either symptom or would you consider it normal.
Thanks so much for putting together a great community here! I've really enjoyed it so far.
