I did my first UDS on the cheap. Most expensive part would have been a ball valve but had one laying around.
Put 3 evenly spaced 1†holes around the bottom, used an old Weber lid on top. Ball valve in one hole, aluminum foil cone-shaped plugs for the other two after it got warmed up. I found it would run well with the ball valve open / adjusted and the other two plugged, if that wasn’t enough pull one of the plugs, shut the ball valve down then open it up until I got the right temp. All three open would get it running pretty hot.
