I have the 1357 so the front plate is more of a v shape than a rectangle. It causes massive amount of over the fire air unfortunately as I was unsuccessful last year. I’ve studied your works to make this stove functional lol

If my new one lasts another 3.5 years I’ll be happy. Hopefully by then I’ll be upgrading stoves anyway. At 60 dollars a pop I don’t want to replace too many of them

Nice, I see some charcoal bricketts torching up Do you have a good coal fire going by now? I take it that you replaced the grate with a new one?

It was off brand match lite charcoal. Paid a 1.50 for the bag and used a half bag. As for the grate it is new and just got here. This is my fires current condition. Unfortunately my camera on my phone doesn’t capture the flames very well, we’re making heat.
