    So we finally got around to replacing our Winterwarm Large unit that came with our house. It has been in process for over two years!

    Where we started....

    Cherry Mantel hung -- Hearth to come next....

    Bluestone Hearth installed

    Finished (minus the grout for the slate in front, which is going on today)


    *Haven't been able to really try it out yet (minus the break ins). Seemed to be leaking air during the break ins, primary air lever not making much difference. Tried the dollar bill test and it failed terribly. Adjustments to hinges and handle did not work, either. So a Hearthstone Stove Tech came out today and said my handle was bad and that I need a new one on order. So we now will wait for that.

    Welcome from one Raiderfan to another! (not much to be rooting for in a while though...)

    For some reason your pics aren't showing up for me. Can everyone else see?

    Hmmm.. I am a novice at posting that sort of thing. I copied and pasted them from Google Photos page. Could that be the reason?

    Let me try to edit with the Image URL thing....

    They might need to be downloaded to your device, and uploaded directly from the device. I'm not 100% on if the website allows it to work the way you're trying (which by the way would be certainly easier).

    Strange. I can no longer see them myself on my phone OR Chromebook. I also can't see where I can edit my original post anymore even if I ever DO figure out how to post pics correctly

    Phone uploads must be the way to go. I'll update the pics from the original in a bit. Am I missing something, or can I no longer EDIT my original post? Is there a time limit to do so of some sorts?
