    Just saw the town librarian. She has offered to give us her 10 year old rebuilt fireview! I accepted ofcourse. She isn't swapping them out until burn season ends in june though.

    I'm going to stick the Fireview in my Dad's house. He was sold a tiny PE when he bought his new place, and now he is stuck with something that only has half the firebox he needs here.

    No pictures yet, when I pick it up I will post em. Score for me old sweet Pa!!

    Just got an apologetic call. She wants a hundred bucks now. She found some gaskets, and a new ceramic cat I guess. I think I can do that.

    I think you can too … and if you can't I'm sure there are others that would.

    For sure it is worth $100. Get it! You won't be sorry. Replacing the cat is child's play. Replacing gaskets is no doubt something you've already had experience with.

    EDIT: Woodstock sells a kit that has all the gaskets needed plus glue and caulk.

    Thanks Dennis. That is the plan right now. He just had Cancer surgery. They had to take his voice box, and the radiation is brutal for his age. He really does like this AS in our house. If he wants it, I would give it to him (once fixed). This will be his last wood stove.

    That's why they don't have the "Anarchist Cook Book" there anymore.
