Lot's of questions today. I would be lost without this forum!

My koker has a 11x19" cutout on top. Can't I put in a collar and have two round 10"x10" runs off of it even though the whole is only 11x19? (some type of home made collar that expands a bit to allow for the 20X20 total?

I want two 10x10 round runs so I can put a backdraft damper in each run so I have no leaking of hot air from my cold air return when the stove is idle.

Thanks

Just make a rectangular plenum for the top and cut the 10" holes in the sides or top of it.....
I think we posted a couple pics of people's setup with their Koker in another thread

Can't resist...

Duck Work
Image

A duck walks into a bar and orders a coke and a sandwich.
The bartender looks at him and says, "But you're a duck."
"I see your eyes are working," replies the duck.
"And you talk!" exclaims the bartender.
"I see your ears are working," says the duck, "Now can I have my coke and my sandwich, please?"
"Certainly," says the bartender, "sorry about that, it's just we don't get many ducks in this pub. What are you doing round this way?"
"I'm working on the building site across the road," explains the duck.
So the duck drinks his coke, eats his sandwich, pays and leaves. This continues for 2 weeks. Then one day the circus comes to town. The ringleader of the circus comes into the pub and the bartender tells him about the incredible talking duck.
"Marvelous!" says the ringleader, "get him to come see me."
So the next day, the duck comes into the pub. The bartender says, "Hey, Mr Duck, I lined you up with a top job paying really good money!"
"Yeah?" says the duck, "Sounds great, where is it?"
"At the circus" says the bartender.
"The circus?" the duck enquires.
"That's right," replies the bartender.
"The circus? That place with the big tent? With all the animals? With the big canvas roof with the hole in the middle?" asks the duck.
"That's right!" says the bartender.
The duck looks confused and asks: "What do they want with a plasterer?"

I had keystocker cut in 2 8" rounds in the plate that goes on top. Then went to Home Depot or lowes and got 8" starters.
