George, I don't see any port holes in your bricks for exhausting. Where does the gasses go out? also, it's nice to see your coal bed still has life in it, after how many hours of burning? And how long does it take you get the stove back up to temp, after refilling?
P.S. Don't know if you saw my other thread, but I "too" just picked up a Godin like yours. Not sure what I'll do with it yet. The seller has another one at his house, in a little better shape, than the one I brought home.

Here is the rear upper exhaust hole.
The square metal in front of the hole is here to prevent coal drop in the exhaust pipe while refilling.
I don't have problems with low stove temperatures after a fresh coal load.
I just shake down twice a day, open the door to revive the fire and rise the stove temp, add fresh coal and thats all!
The photo with the bright fire is after a 14hours burn

I don't know if it is true...scalabro wrote:Tall & narrow fire pots are the best
I think tall fire pots needs more time to recover stove temp after a fresh load of coal.
Also it is more difficult to have blues dancing

The only you can see are the glowing coals after the shakedown.joeq wrote:Well, on a Godin, you wouldn't see any dancing anyway, would you? The door window is the grate, and a cover on the top.
If you wand a french stove to watch the fire, you have to look for a salamandre type coal stove.
Here's mine...unfortunately it's for sale...I'm not a stove guy, but it would be great for it to go to a good home.
