The nickel-plated skirts and boot rails just lift off for polishing. The doors are "pintle and gudgeon" type hinges (like an old boat rudder). They just lift off.
The rest is held together with "stove bolts", which are just round head slotted machine screws and square nuts. No lock washers used.
The firepot, barrel, and top are bolted together. Then they just sit on the base frame without any fasteners.
The legs make up the corners of the base frame - sides and legs bolted together.
You can get new stove bolts and square nuts at many hardware stores or suppliers such as McMaster-Carr or Granger.
