    Has anyone ever heard of an old wood stove of this model? It is a small stove and the whole thing comes apart like you could haul it around easily. I will have some pictures in just a little while. I have looked around and just cannot find anything about a Dolly wood stove.

    I will take some better pictures tonight. Seems very intricate and the whole thing breaks down as if you could easily transport it. It weighs about 70 to 100lbs and burns great! Hopefully someone will know something about it!

    I wonder how old it is... Maybe break down easy for the military to move around, or for hunters to move camps?

    IMG_0201.JPG IMG_0200.JPG IMG_0202.JPG IMG_0199.JPG Not sure but I sure am excited to get it piped in to my shop. Maybe someone can give me some pointers on running all the stove piping to make sure I don't burn everything down! Here are more pictures. Would love to know any info about it. I think maybe it was a salesman model.

    "The Favorite Stove and Range Company" just googled dolly no 7 wood stove and a bunch of images are on pinterest.
    Salesman models are kinda a miniature of real size stove.

    bambisnightmare Do yourself a favor and get some other stove. This one looks rode hard and put away wet. Cover plates are cracked, etc. Be a shame to have something bad happen in your shop....


    With all that being said, welcome aboard!

    I have a local blacksmith and going to see if he can fix the cracks. I plan on sand blasting it and repainting it black.

    This is the page I found it on but I don't think it is the same stove, is it? Then, for whatever reason, the stove in the pic is anchored to the floor at the base of the legs!!!!!
    Good Luck!
