    In 2 months, it'll be a year for you! We know you've enjoyed your time so far.....al beit your experience at home has been marked by some setbacks. But you're still plugging away! Maybe Fireplace911 will chime in on your situation?

    No worries K, you have lots of wood to cut and put up for seasoning, and spring is right around the corner:)

    I'd like to throw a bone here to Fireplace911! I recently was advised and purchased from FP911/his work place a Majestic gas stove for my back room when they installed gas dowm my street. "yea" I didn't put in a Fisher there...:emb:

    His advise on this stove was right on for my needs, saved me some serious $$$ and his gas piping work was stellar! :thumbs::cool:

    I was given a stove that someone thought was a NC-13 but was not. I am not sure about using the stove in my house and have decided to sell it if possible so I can pay for one that is better suited. However, I know nothing about used stoves and what one should sell for. I was thinking it could be repaired perhaps and that it would sell better.

    You can see the stove at this post: CFM Corporation Stove | Firewood Hoarders Club

    I'll try and find some info on this tomorrow when I get to work.. What exactly does the model on the back of the stove say?
    And that would be about the time that they sold things to Home Depot(2007-8 I think) for a year or 2

    Great to have you aboard. Look forward to your insights. Tell us about Dave Pomeroy. Any words of wisdom to pass along?

    Welcome Fireplace911! Looking forward to the added expertise you bring about wood burning in general and about the Encore 2550 cat stove too.

    Wow, I wouldn't know where to start...he was someone who dedicated his life to the industry and loved every minute of it... He was a true teacher and had classes like no other... He set up his own troublemaking guides with hands on devices so people could touch and feel what they were learning... I will try and find something to post here of his
