2. Use a masonry or glass-and-tile drill bit to create a hole (or enlarge an existing hole) in the bottom of the pot for the plug of the hot plate to pass through. Take Note: To minimize the chance of damage, place the pot on a bag of sand to cradle and support the area as you drill the hole.

3. Assemble a handle for the lid using an eyebolt, two washers, two nuts, and a 6" length of wood or wood dowel. Be creative; there are lots of ways to make the handle.

4. Test-fit your parts. Place a few 2"-thick brick or patio block scraps inside the pot to prop up the hot plate for air circulation. Place the wood chip pan on the hot plate, insert the grate, and then position the top. Prop the pot on three blocks. When everything fits, you’re ready to start smokin’. Take Note: If your grate wobbles or tilts, create three support lips for the grate to rest on using dabs of silicone caulk on the inside of the flowerpot.
