That thing with the set screws looks like a 5" to 6" adapter. It isn't an Axeman part, just heave it. Soak the screws down with penetrating oil and give the screws a good smack with a hammer, should be more cooperative after that. Hit them square, you don't need more work.

Huh, I don't really know. Maybe I could get a couple members to snap a pic of what is there on their AA.

Could be that you will need to replace that thinner collar to slip your new 6" stove pipe over or into it.

Thank you for the pics. I wasn't smart enough at the time to throw a tape measure on it but I think yer on to something

The Pope's Hat is just a piece of pipe with a flange welded onto it. The pipe goes down in about 8", the flange bolts on top of the boiler and about 3" sticks out the top. 5" stove pipe fits right over it. You should run 5" til you get near the base of the chimney, then step it up to a larger size.

Sorry, I looked but I don't have a pic of my Pope's Hat.

Yeah, I'm gonna see if that "foreign" piece will come off so that I can just do as you suggest.

Hahaha! This is an island in the stream. On the other side I see a big gorgeous BB in the living room, in the not too distant future....

I like the new avatar. It looks like that Viking dude is wielding a huge MPD
