For the blower motors and burn pot that i can cut to the patten i need, has anyone done this and if so where did you buy it from

thanks
 
I bought a sheet (@10"X15") of automotive header/exhaust manifold gasket from NAPA for @$10 on guidance from this forum. I am sure a search will bring multiple threads. I have used it on the exhaust blower and a couple small cleanout doors on my stove. It is a Fel-Pro Pro-Ramic material. They had it in stock. It has a metal core with laminated ceramic coating on either side. Can't speak for the burnpot usage as my stove uses rope door gasket on the burn pot.
 
When we first bought our stove (used) it needed a new gasket between the stove and vent pipe. The gasket material is the same for the blowers.

I went to a dealer and they didn't have the gasket I needed in stock, but had the sheet stuff. He just cut me off a couple of squares and didn't charge anything for it.

Google sheet lytherm

You should also be able to find various gaskets on Amazon, you have to make certain it is rated for the temperatures it will encounter.
 
thanks for the info everyone
