Reply:Nice work!GravelThe difference between theory and practice is that in theory there is no difference.
Reply:Thank you Mr. gravel sir.  Funny thing is it started out as a piece of steel to lay on the floor to catch any escaping embers out the stove door and I still don't have that done!Some kind of Big Blue constant current welding machineAnother smaller yet, Blue machine (it's got wire in it)
Reply:That's looks nice! What thickness metal did you use? And whats in the bottom door?
Reply:WOW!!!! thats great.....Of all the things I lost I miss my mind the most...I know just enough about everything to be dangerous......You cant cure stupid..only kill it...
Reply:Motolife313, I am embarrassed to say I don't know my metal sheet gauges.  I can tell you it is about 3/16s" and less than 1/8th".  I wanted to use something stout enough to stand up without to much frame work around it.  The goose is about 1/8th" thick, built up with mig and stick to achieve the shape - not to mention days worth of grinding.  The bottom door is an ash door that slides in and out to empty.Some kind of Big Blue constant current welding machineAnother smaller yet, Blue machine (it's got wire in it)

Reply:Work of art sir!  You made a fantastic ecosystem there, I have never seen a heat shield like that or with that technique used, please more pics  Without flash, use halogen indirect lightning if possible. Have you rust-proofed these pieces?

Reply:That looks very cool.  The craftsmanship is second to none!!
Reply:Bisteneau, you are so right.  I got my 3s right but not the 32nds.  Meant to say 3/32".  Thanks for helping me clarify that and thanks for the compliment.Some kind of Big Blue constant current welding machineAnother smaller yet, Blue machine (it's got wire in it)
