And I have one of the latter in front of my shop for repairs . This
thing weighs 440 lbs . It's a very nice stove - Harman TL200 - but it
was ignored for several years . So ignored that they didn't realize
there was no cap on the stovepipe . Worst damage is to the "ceramic
fiber afterburner" unit , it's mush - expensive to replace mush . But
the problems I'm addressing are somewhat more mundane . Broken off bolts
and one pivot shaft that has the actuator arm on the end broken off .
The stove has seen a lot of fire just from looking , and I'm wondering
if the broken bolts may have picked up enough carbon to be a problem .
I'll be doing some soaking of the rest of the bolts I need to pull .
Probably mix up a small batch of Ed's Red for this one .

In 1959 I spent a few days working at a major railway marshalling yard
and had my meals at the dinning hall for train crews - at that time,
all you could eat came to under a dollar. The cook was a retired
engine driver and all cooking was done on a coal fired, cast iron cook
stove, large and heavy enough that instead of legs, it was set in a
crib of sand built up through the floor. Best meals I had in forty
years on the road!
