nice stove. have you done a burn in it yet to see if it leaks smoke? needs a gasket or something? hate for you to get a nasty suprise on a cold and stormy night.

btw, the stove black and the pipe need to be cured, do a hot burn (when you make sure it doesnt leak) it will smoke - the stove black and the pipe- but it is supposed to, open the windows and the doors. after it is cured you can heat away.

just my .02

good blog by the way.
