Theres a very long list of things worse to do than restoring, using, and collecting stoves. Its the weight of them I wouldnt like and they seem to get heavier every year.

"Trouble" is when you turn the lights out for a few minutes, then turn them back on. Another stove shows up, just like rabbits.

I hear there's no cure for it, either. Ya just have to tough it out and learn to live with all those stoves. ....or keep the lights on. lol:

Another excellent refurbishment!
Cure and test fire? Are you planning on heating with it?

Depends on how test fire goes.

I would be interested to see what numbers I can get with the fancy indirect back pipe compared to just direct daft.

The grate system sucks in the Derby.

No test fire yet, sprinkles then rain.

Those grates are like the burnt out ones on my little Globe stove. Better keep your house locked

That picture doesn’t really show how the center toggles

Can you show a few seconds of video ?

Rain does that mean you started the Herald?
