Solved our furnace draft issue with a simple baffle adjustment.
The smoke was backing up into the shop every time we fired up. Adding a metal plate to redirect the airflow cleared it right up.

That's a great fix for a common problem. I'd just add that a metal plate can warp over time with the heat cycles. A lot of pros use a piece of firebrick instead for the baffle, since it holds up better.

Good point about the warping. Seen that happen a few times myself. Firebrick is definitely the way to go for a long term fix.
