Looking for some advice here. I may have gotten ahead of myself. I have a Majestic MBU36 insert that has been converted to gas. I was hoping to bring the wood framing out and wrap stacked stone around to create a thicker looking fireplace. See picture. What I neglected to consider is if having the wood protruding is a code problem. I do plan to wrap in cement board and stone of course if that matters. The wood framing also does not extend over the metal face of the insert, just up next to it. Any advice is appreciated!
