Grease-

Not sure where you're at in NE WI, but if you're within stinking distance of Fleet Farm in Green Bay you could give them a call and see if they have it. They typically do carry split brick at a good price.

I bought mine at a full line masonry supply. They have full and half thick at about 50% less than the maple places. These bricks are used in fireplaces and many boilers.

I got mine at a masonary supply place, I use half bricks in my barrel. I used a 1/2 inch ceramic blanket behind it, and the ouside of my barrel remains relitivley cool. I got the blanket from mcmaster carr, it is fairly cheap.

I bought my 1/2" ceramic blanket off ebay. Even with shipping it was cheaper than buying locally.
