    I picked up the stove today. Still have much to do before I will be burning wood but each step gets me closer.

    One more hurdle that you have cleared. Are you getting anxious yet?

    There is no chimney yet; thimble is installed in the wall, and no hearth but I am getting there.

    I dropped a piece of locust on my toe last year. It took about six months for the black spot under the toenail to grow out.

    Kimberly, trust me, you'll be ecstatic when you finally get that stove fired up.

    I just got my insert in last weekend, into the fire place that I had used for 7 years.

    At this point all I have manged to do is to get the thimble installed. The wood stove has issues that I am unsure of. It may be better to try and sell that stove and get an Englander NC-30. See this thread CFM Corporation Stove | Firewood Hoarders Club

    I am trying to see if I can find a way. Today I am going to see if I can get the chimney brackets mounted.
