Big Al...I have never made it that far. We have done hunter's stick and that requires some longer smoking but you are dealing with a thinner link pre smoke. I have never smoked sausage to where it was jerky like.

Big Al,
The old German we used to lease from would leave some links in the
smokehouse and build a small fire in it when the weather was cool and dry
for 2 or 3 weeks. He may build 7 or 8 fires and let them die out until the
sausage was dry. Wipe the links off with vinegar and you're good to go!
I've hung some in the garage and let them dry. They're good but not as good as the smokehouse method.

is the fire box completly closed up when smoking or does is have a vent near the bottom to keep the fire burning? Or is the only air comming from the smoke tube?
