Thanks Pierre, I now have a new love for the gaskets and I haven't even fired up the stove to see the new found control since it is sealed so well with gaskets :D !

Hum, I like to do what I say so because I told you that the last (Hope so...) thing I had to do before the """DAY""" was to make an ash pan lid so here it is.

Excellent Pierre! Very clever "hook up".

I think the day is coming soon. We have some cold days the next few. :D

Very nice latching system Pierre, simple and effective.

Does the pan have to be outside the stove or can the lid be put on the pan while inside the stove ?

Thanks Steve. I wanted the lid not falling down when lifted so when lifted the rear hook lock the lid so it can't fall down.
Yes, you'r right the cold days are here too so the first road test is on now......

Ok nortcan, I've been waiting to hear how the Baltimore Heater does. Pictures, pictures, pictures. I like the ash pan cover idea, that's very creative.

Thanks Keith.
Yes the ash pan should be out of the ash pit to be slided out. It's also why I put a rear handle at the rear of the ash pan. When I got the stove there was a ""toilet"" chain to pull the pan out of the pit. Now that handle serves to pull the pan out and to lift and lock the back of the pan with the lid.
Vermont Casting is really the best for the ash pan system. When opening the ash pit door, the ash pan swing out and you only slide the lid on it, then just lift it out...
When you have worked with an ash pan lid, it's hard to use the ash pan without a lid. So cleaner and safer to use.

OK William.
Because it's you :) , I send the first real anthracite fire photos.
I burnt it for a few weeks with écolo-logs to get used to the stove and it wasn't very cold here. The Heater was responding very well for those morning/night fires.
The sove is actually burning ant since 12, so about 10 hrs. I was surprised how it was easy to start, just a few minutes and the blues were on...
An other thing that amazed me is how it was easy to set the temp./heat output.
Because the Heater is in an ""alcove""/faux-foyer having a warm air removing system , that unit is the best for my usage cause most of the heat is sent at the back of the unit from the rear "base burner" system and from the convection systm also moving hot air to the back of the unit.
If the grate system can work good, I will be 200% satisfied.
So again I must thank you for your support and help.

Thank you for the pictures Nortcan. The stove is beautiful with a fire in it. It is surprising how appropriate the stove looks there. It is a very stylish combination, almost modern looking.

I second that. It looks stunning and is the culmination of allot of work. Bravo to you Pierre and now I hope you love the grate system too. Love the new avatar system.
