cool, thanks for showing this.
there has been a strong resurgence of most sizes of these stoves and a lag in the operational principles of the design and an equal amount of struggle to come to terms with them and get acceptable heat.
part of it is the issue of opening the load lid and seeing nothing but warm but certainly not burning coal staring at you. this totally freaks everyone out, it did me.
it actually took me completely altering one into a differing design to realize what was already there. the stove i built is a monster heater in it's own right but it totally defies the elegant simplicity of the origin design.

consistent and precise tending practice pretty much eliminates the puff back issue but, every stove has a learning curve and some are more dramatic than others. the top exit really does keep it at a minimum once the function of the design engineering is understood.
the stove i built had no puff back issues but it ended up only being associated with the WM's by the fact that some original parts were used.

Used to see a lot of Warm Morning stoves here in the south. Very few left that's worth saving,they've either been over fired with bit coal or wood has been chucked in them and destroyed the brick. Definitely heating machines and very underrated stoves. Nice stove you have there!

How do you get the ash out? And you don’t shake it down?

I know a guy within a half mile of me that bought one of these stoves and is using it to burn wood in his work shed. If it is in good shape, and the bricks are in good shape, I'd be willing to trade him real wood burner for it...just to keep him from ruining the bricks.
If he's not willing to trade or sell, then I'm still looking for one...or two...or three of these stoves in good shape. I just haven't had much time to search, but that is changing now. Keep me in mind Steve...since you're not that far from me...3 hours maybe.

C- glad you posted this. Rescued a 523 last summer, got it going (owe the forum a thread with pics of the progression).
Here’s a pic of the under fire part when the stove is happy.
They are cool that there’s not much to see above with the knowing the business is under

That stove appears to be in real nice shape. Was discussing this in pm's with another and somehow in discussion...even after seeing pictures...I can't seem to remember that these stoves are indeed round and not square. Less than half a century and my mind is already leaving me. LOL!
