    I put a fresh coat of Stove Bright Metallic Black on my new-to-me Drolet 1400i this spring and currently it awaits its install. A few weeks after the coat of new paint, I had some spots that totally lifted, down to bare metal. The weird thing is that none of those spots had anything wrong previously. This was supposed to be just a "freshen up" coat. I was told that Drolet uses Stove Bright at the factory so I wouldn't think there would be an issue.
    Anyways, hope yours works better than mine. And looking forward to the Chikn soop!

    Those seem to be the two mainstays of "man cooking on wood stove".....chili and stew!

    Decided to put the deck on today, and took a couple pics. They didn't come out real well, but I think you get the idea.

    Hmmm, might have to add one of these. Are you guys using the regular or heavy duty blower?

    I went straight to the squirrel cage, since the hair dryer wouldn't work in my situation.

    I used the regular hair dryer at first. Better but not great. Then skipped the HD blower and bought a larger universal blower from amazon. Then added a snap disc to cycle the blower as needed to not overcool the stove. It cycles the blower at the beginning and end of a fuel load.

    Do you have the link for that blower (again) and maybe the snap disc?

    I wrote a thread about the blower. Would link here but am on a mobile device for a few days. The combination of convection deck and super blower is superb for the nc30.
