Well, at least ya won't be wearing out your lower back having to move that beast. :D It still amazes me that your back has held up after more than 30 years of dragging antique stoves around. :shock:

Come on Panch confess, you will be found our sooner or later. :D I'm busting with curiosity as all know that it's a 90% probability that it's a board member. No it's not me, I got no money, spare chimney or room. What happened, a year ago they were around but now everything has dried up. It's all Williams fault. :D

Why would someone wait until the last minute to place a bid on ebay? Most people use automatic bidding anyway, right? I usually just enter a max bid and walk away. Ebay bids on my behalf until my max is met.

I don't know about others but I enjoy setting my price and going on to other things.

I don't want to be part of bidding an item up in price.

To me that is counter productive.

Now if I'm selling I want all the bids I can get, bids force the price higher.

Ah TC, that is the sensible and rational thing to do. Are you sure you are a coal burner.

Sincere congrats Panch, you is the man. Now when it is restored and running let's have a video of the whole setup, I presume at the other end of the house. :D

Grats Pancho!

Did you figure out what exactly was missing from the fire pot? The seller didn't really seem to know...
