testing outside, sand covering exhaust–that paint just won’t burn, maybe it’s high temp:-)
Maintenance with a 100 feet of copper makes lifting a 55 gallon drum that much more difficult–notice the paint is gone, sealing the bricks of the firebox, better riser, higher heat, but that means citra solve paint remover and delays
replacing mud around base is an easy repair
notice the pex pipe connection just above the firebox
Exhaust returning from the bench going out of the house
