I had a 2 barrel setup if anyone is interested in it. I'll have to see if it's still intact. Pick up in Clarke Co.

So, in case anyone wants to make their own, you don't have to go all jungleistic and build a mud dome. You can use a steel barrel with a lid.

I may be able to get one this weekend. Basically a 35 gal drum inside a 55 gallon drum. Pack the open top 35 gallon drum as tight as possible with oak, pecan etc. Put the 55 gallon drum over the 35 and flip them. The 55 has 1" air holes around the perimeter of the sides, about 2" above the edge. Pack fuel wood around the inner drum and on top. Light a fire on top and when its burning good put the top on the 55 gallon drum.

The top has a hole cut in the center. There is a 8 to 6" stove reducer riveted over the hole. Add two joints of 6" stove pipe to the reducer. When the wood in the inner barrel gas off you'll hear it ignite in the stack. The smoke will change too but can't remember the details.

This video is similar to the process I used
Making a retort

This used to be one of the questions on the RF test for the state back in early 90s.
