Excellent, it looks a good job.
Were you aware that there is another member that is desperately looking for the hot blast parts for his stove or someone to help with a master to be copied?

I seen a post for 75 secondary air ring. They are hard to come by. I made a set for the 77 I have. Here's another pic of stove still waiting in bottom ring from plater. I'll upload more pics and settings once I get her running. Any advice on setting will be greatly appreciated. Gonna run anthracite. Ran wood and bit in my 77 but never tried anthracite.

Pane, congrats on the overhaul, and getting her running. Looks great. And I can't understand why no-one has commented on the scroll work embossed into your liner. very cool. Are we to assume that was the design in the mold you used to pour around?

Yep I scratched my head for quite sometime on building a liner. The Florence is hard because of the secondary air manifold. Was going to build out of sheet metal then I seen some old Flower pots my wife had in the garage. Worked out perfect even concave in at bottom. The good is the pot turned out excellent the bad wifey is down one flower pot for next year. We'll cross that road when we get there.

Here's a video of the Florence secondary air manifold in action. Running bit, 400 at barrel, minimal primary air with secondary turned about about 3/4 turn. Hard to see but Florence burning smoke very well. Blue flame coming out of secondary air ring.
