PS - Clean water *IS* the "next oil" ...everyone should brace themselves. ESPECIALLY if you are on public sewer.

That clinker door piece looks simple enough to make a wooden pattern and have one cast by Tomahawk.

I have a few bags of 'nut but the stove size I have burns SO nice and the big pieces won't go anywhere.auntievintage wrote: ↑Fri. Nov. 17, 2017 7:05 amMA - Have you thought about running her with nut?

2 years, 3months, and 3 days later the Home Sparkle 12 is lit and the fire is building. Initial thoughts:
The burn off of the polish was not bad at all...of course I wouldn't mind if the house stunk.
The basement area it's in is much warmer compared to starting a fire in the box stove, thank you cast iron

Excellent Smithers
Let the death match begin!!!
One bit of advice, if I may .....
Under no circumstances walk away from it in direct draft wide open and forget that you have done so. Especially on a clean pile reload....it will accelerate like a Saturn V main engine

Thanks bud!
haha funny you should mention that. I was impressed with the heat coming off her with a dozen matchlite briquettes, then 1/2 a barrel of anthracite...she gets hot fast is right!scalabro wrote: ↑Sun. Nov. 19, 2017 7:24 pmExcellent Smithers
