    Flamestead , are you a beta tester? Must be since they are not certified yet. I would like to see pictures of the inside and how you access the cat, etc.

    After a couple minutes of thought, I'm with bobdog2o02 ... You Suck! Not because you have one but because you are teasing us with it. :hair:

    A couple of quick pics before a fire. It has been burned before, at Woodstock, but I suspect we will hit some new high temps and get some paint smell. Luckily a very understanding wife. Her verdict is she she thinks she likes it better than the IS (smaller, side-load).

    How deep is the firebox floor from bottom of load door? Picture makes it look quite shallow.
    Smoke flow is a bit confusing from the picture of the cat, can you give some explanation?

    Thanks.
    p.s. I take back the You Suck comment. :D
