I kicked butt and took names today! lol First I welded the wood rests in place then I welded the lower air intake on with it’s backing plate. After that I put the two cross bars in place to help prevent the weight from blowing out the center. About this stage I welded the feed chute in. Once that was in I cut the opening in the front panel and slid it home then screwed it tight. I still need to fasten the secondary facial backing plate and install the electric element and the basic stove will be about ready.

I do still have to make the pony firebox and chimney yet.

I may actually finish tomorrow if the weather is decent, long overdue!

ETA: Then I have to figure out how in the heck to move it! YIKES!
