    Deciding on artwork and colors. Can someone point me to a thread with a bunch of IS pictures? I've searched, but cannot find a thread with many pictures. If there's not one.....let's start one.

    I saw a picture of someone's IS that had the letter "B" in the side panel and on the andirons. I would especially like to find that pic again.

    Here's your chance to brag..................

    Thanks.

    Welcome MountainMan
    I don't remember that particular stove but someone will be along shortly who does.
    You're gonna love the IS.

    Sent an email to Woodstock after checking out 100+ pictures on the Facebook page. If they have already produced certain artwork, it is considered to be in the library and is available with no up-charge.

    This is only one of many emails I have sent them lately. If I can't kick the tires, then I'm gonna have to have a lot of info to help me decide. They have been very responsive and helpful.

    Since the Ideal Steel Hybrid has been out a while, google image search will find just about every pic that is out on the internet:
    woodstock ideal steel - Google Search

    I think the 'B' you're referring to might be from Babaganoosh perhaps?

    Good luck!

    I chose a mix of available art for the andirons and burners, and designed my own scene for the fenders. It's an Adirondack Mountain theme, as hiking and paddling in the ADK's are my most favorite things. Loons and compass on top, maple leaf andirons, and a paddling in the mountains themed fender art. Black with a touch of copper accents:

    Still trying to figure out which tool set will match my hodgepodge theme.

    Nice stove Brad38 I've never seen the 'before' pics! And I guess I had the wrong person with the 'B'.

    It's been said a bunch of times but it's really cool looking in person.

    Welcome aboard MountainMan I have IS also

    20150906_153659.jpg 20150906_153659.jpg ,



    Mine is black on black wife choice as our decor is wood and wrought-iron

    But you can buy an extra door for 150? or other parts dirt cheap really.... she (the wife) is thinking of getting red door and Christmas tree on top for a Christmas theme next winter.

    Now my wife and daughter LOVE this stove! it burns really well low and slow.. for most of the year but can throw the heat when we hit 30 below..

    I've got another example of black with copper. Chicken theme on the stove accompanied by my little turkeys.
