While putting together the heat jacket for the hyfire II today I learned that the body of the stove is not rectangular.

Is there some special formula for calculating the angle of the bi-astitutunous when determining the rectilinear output of this unique weldment? R U sure it was planned or just of a result drunken welding adventure on a slow Friday afternoon?

Perhaps after a long lunch at Yuelings....... :eek2: :doh: :yes: :surrender: toothy
