I am thinking of purchasing this vertical smoker but I was wondering if anyone has seen this setup work? The heat/smoke is channeled through the back of the fire box up along the backside then up into the top of the meat cabinet then has to go to the bottom in order to go into another channel along the back to escape... would this work? See pictures

Completely custom, heavy duty 1/4” for the main body and 1/8” for the channels on the back...
