Very cool. Let us know when you get yours. I plan on taking a bunch of pics when mine gets here. Then, there's reality......
It arrives on a pallet in a box strapped to the inside of the truck. They hand truck it to the lift gate and lower the lift gate. They then wheel it off the lift gate. That truck would have to get into a hell of a collusion for the 30 to be damaged.
When I got my NC-13.- it was boxed, strapped, and on a pallet. The (3) NC-30's we had shipped were the same when they arrived. Check the glass, and the firebrick. The firebrick might be the only concern, maybe the baffle material. The stove is a tank, no worries there.
This thread is over two months old and I just ordered the NC30 from this store and it's still on sale at $649. Estimated shipping sometime next week!!
STill got the late 80's Schrader incinerator box for sale for $150 lol. No warps cracks or new fangled hocus pocus (just kidding, I know new stoves rock but this would be good for a garage).
NC30 delivered this morning already. Heck it was sitting in the frieght terminal 30 miles away for a day and a half!!!
