    So we got it off loaded and into the garage conversion today! :):)

    Getting it onto the dolly cart from the truck was easy thanks to the farmer down the road and bobcat w/fork attachment. (Wish I'd taken a pic of that, but was helping him)

    My Oldest son Jake had to get in on the excitement! We uncrated while on the dolly to tear the stove down for an easier trip through the door.

    Stove pics right after uncrating. Very impressed! So much bigger in real life. Bailey our dog not as excited. Lol.

    Continued.....(can there be too many pics?:)

    This shaved off more weight than I thought it would. Guess it adds up!

    In the house safe and sound! That cart wouldn't even move with the stove fully assembled, and the dolly tires were very stressed, but once we took it down some, it made the task much easier. We used a ramp and wheeled it right in. Monday is the scheduled install date. Can't wait to see what she can do! Summer over yet? :/

    Simply beautiful!!!!! I love the copper. I wanted the copper as well but the wife liked something else better. Great center burner and the side medallions came out great!!! Make sure you update when it is installed.

    yea, I like the copper too. Its amazing how different it looks like in person vs the pictures.
    When I picked up mine it was late October and like you, I was already itching to get it going.
    Thanks for sharing your pics, I really enjoy all the IS pics the owners put up here.

    Wait til your first burn, you'll be camera happy then too.

    Great looking stove. I really like looking at the ones that had a custom design. Looks like the color will match the room too. Good times!

    Thanks! Canadian border VT ! Can't wait to see your install.

    Thanks man! mike bayerl

    Beet Stix - it's a magnetic thermometer that came with the stove. I just stuck it there, lol.

    papadave - I could use a week 60 degrees colder about now! :thumbs:

    Great looking install Brad, that setup looks amazing. Got any plans for some break-in fires soon?
    I especially like the mantle and the two hanging lanterns, whoever designed that did a greta job.

    and BTW, I wrote Lorin a few days ago and gave kudos to Penny from you and I. She also helped me last
    year when I was doing my artrwork and I appreciated her patience and proffessionalism.

    To the rest of the production year IS owners, I wrote Lorin a few days ago with regards to the take down (dissection) of a working model year stove and the issue surrounding the black soot like material that came from the rear of the left side. She has nothing new as of this time and these two project remain on the schedule to be worked on in the near future. She mentioned that the IS production has not let up this summer and continues in full swing, there were no lulls as they had anticipated. She will get some information out to us soon. Does anyone have anything else to add aside from this info?

    Thanks! :) the design was the wife and I . She is on a picture idea site called Pinterest. You search for pictures (in our case, stove installs), and it gives you all kinds of ideas. We just took ideas we liked from a bunch of different pics, and added them to a few of our own.

    I sent some appreciation e-mails to them as well along with install pics. I believe in giving credit where credit is due. Mike from WS even wrote back and asked that I let them know how I like it this fall.

    I'm itching for break-ins! ready to play...

    Recently joined the forum and trying to look at as much content here as time allows. I didnt go through the entire thread just the last page.
    Very nice install, Brad38, and the stove looks great----I am sure you are excited to get some cooler temps.
