Installing the water heating pipe should have, would have been a piece of cake IF I had remembered to do it BEFORE installing the front panel. But no I forgot to install it first so I spent about 2-3 hours working it in today and ended up with a sloppy job and not the nice clean install I was looking for. Worse the way I had to put it in will require a pump to be running If I had remembered to do it like I had planned the pump would have been optional. Oh well like spilt milk it’s done now. I got the hole for the electric element cut and got that almost ready to assemble. I still have to rip a 1/2″ copper pipe down to make some copper bars to hook the element up with it being recessed dang near to the middle of the unit. I just don’t have any wire I trust at 500F or possibly more. Once that’s done I have to make the air inlet doors and I “think” the stove build itself will be finished. The bad news is it’s supposed to rain all day tomorrow.
