What does the exhaust grill look like?

Pass the word on to me if you get an answer from Wilson please .

I need to contact coalnewbie as well for the gas rings . I need a set too.
Here ya go josh - #6 exhaust grill. Meant to keep the bigger pieces of coal from getting into and clogging the back pipe. It's held in place at the slots at 3 and 9 o'clock slipping over tabs with holes for cotter pins,......... or if your lazy like me,... a couple of 8D common nails dropped into the tab holes so that it's easy to remove to clean the section leading to the back pipe. :roll:

Thanks Paul! I need one of these as well. I actually had this problem of getting a piece of but coal stuck in the back pipe and it jammed my selector . I had to shut the stove down and remove it later .

Out of all the other parts I REALLY, need this one .

Wilson said he has the gas rings, and he's pretty sure what he calls the spark guard is at the foundry and should be available in a few weeks...

I was shootin' the breeze with him this past Sunday and I am pretty sure he has them out for casting or is in the process of getting patterns made. Either way, he'll have them soon enough......just don't go nutso flingin' coal in when loading. :)

Someone put a lot of thought into these stoves. You can certainly run the stove without the gas ring or the exhaust grille....but someone had their thinking cap on and put those components into the design for a reason.

I think it's more exciting that people have taken the time to make part patterns for the various wear parts for these stoves so they can be kept running long after they were built.

Agreed,

I know for certain Wilson has been recasting the #6 grates. The two long grate bars in my #6 are recasts he gave me when I bought the stove.

Bruno thanks for the offer to crash ! I may take you up on that one day . I must see the birth place of my stove as well. The history of it is great. Meat the people who restored my stove and some other coal fans .

Thanks to the suggestions of you all I spoke with Wilson and purchased a set of rings . I hope to go ahead and install these this summer . Grill will have to come later when the foundry is done with such.

You know chatting on the forum is great but talking on the phone or in person just seems to be that much better .

Congrats and welcome to coal easy street, as they say !

The baro may have been a part of why you had so much trouble getting it started.
Might have been killing the draft and why you had smoke backing into the house from too weak of a draft.
Paul
Closing the baro on wood furnace with a thin stick, absolutely prevents smoke from exiting my Lamppa Kuuma Vaporfire wood furnace.

Hi All,

The time has come to sell my beloved Glenwood Base Heater. When I moved the Glenwood became a decoration in the basement of the new house, but hasn't been fired since. I have kept it oiled and with a DampRid container in it. I recently moved it to the boiler room, next to the bulkhead, as I need the space it was in. I'll enterain any serious offers from coal enthusiasts interested in adopting her. This stove was professionally restored by Barnstable Stoves. Current pictures are attached...

Best Regards,

Bruno
