smokedragon, that is close to the design we would choose if we get one, except we'd probably have antlered deer on the andirons and most definitely not a black stove!
 
Not really my thing . . . but I am more of a traditionalist . . . I like my stoves on the simpler, plain side with the most fancy thing being a bit of an arch here or there.
 
So here it is, the pre-order has been placed and they are working hard on the designs. Here is the rough draft of the top burners

And the side design

We took advantage of the natural blue in the stone and decided an outdoor theme would be great. Since I am an avid deer hunter, we thought it would be a great theme for our family room.

So what do you think??

Those are sweet!
 
I like it a lot. I would've gone deer duck or pheasant. I think we are ordering the progress hybrid tho
 
It looks good. It might be my immaturity but I think it looks like the deer is peeing instead of a natural stream underneath. I would change that part.

Perhaps you should put some study into the anatomy of deer?! ;lol

We really struggled between those two........but the room our stove is in is more informal and has all my deer antler on the wall. I think the PH is a beautiful stove that is really awesome for a more formal area. If I were putting in a stove upstairs, it would have been the PH. But the IS in our design matches our decor better ==c
 
Sent in my deposit today! I'm not as concerned about the design as I am about functionality, but this could be fun :)
 
I agree.....I want a functional stove. However, I think this design will match my decor ==c

The final designs came in today for approval......the wife is out of town on business, so when she gets back I hope we can get to cutting ==c==c

Do you estimate to use less wood with the Ideal Steel?
 
Once the install is done and burning season starts, I will make sure to have all sorts of posts. I will be measuring wood consumption very closely.

I do anticipate using a little less wood (but having A LOT more heat).

Ask me after Thanksgiving ::-)
