NICE! One suggestion to all HITZER owners. Should your new stoves have firebrick along the front (just below the door), cut the tops of the firebrick on a angle of at least 45 degreeze. This way the coal will not set up on top of the fire brick when shaking. I did this with my 30-95 before the first fire, while the bricks were still clean. Works very good. My cousin recently installed a new 30-95. Sure enough, coal, and ashes set on top of the fire brick.

Wow :!: The green and brass look terrific. The gold door with surely be the icing on the cake. I think that is one of the best looking steel stoves I have seen. Congratulations.

Hi, I just got an old hitzer 30-95, but I cannot see anywhere online where it says how many firebricks are in it, and how they are arranged, I moved up north from the south so I really do not know much, I have had help setting it all up, everything is safe, just need this last detail. Please and thank you. if you could take pictures of the inside or give a detailed description of how your new one is set up, that would be great, thanks.
