With a flat seal, you don't have to worry about the alignment with the knife edge to the gasket. Imagine if that alignment was off by 1/4" and the round rope gasket could squirt out. With a flat seal, the only thing you need to worry about is compression.

I donk have a BK but i did the dollar bill test last night. I can pull it out in about half the places i put it, but it was pretty hard to pull it out, with lots of friction. There was one spot that was a bit more loose but still not very loose, i am going to see if i can get a bit more turn on the door handle nut and not lock it in place and see if that helps tighten it.

Isn't alignment fixed after production? Not at home to look at the stove. I know I had problems with my lennox sealing.

I always wondered how paranoid to be about this. Right now I'm wondering if it's ok to add some lumber scraps (non-treated of course) to my kindling pile, because of the printing on the face of the lumber. I'm thinking that's TOO paranoid.

I burned lumber after asking a similar question but was sure to remove the staples and stickers from the bottom of each piece.

I'd be more concerned about the printing on the face of the board than about those.
