As I explained in my last post I have a short run of fittings that I use to connect my wood boiler to the masonry thimble in my basement wall.
It consists of 2-45's, 1-Tee, and a 6x8 increaser. Its is a pain is the @ss to take apart and put back together because its such a short run and being that its a boiler it cant be moved to shift everything into posistion.
Do you think its feasible to use 6" flexible stainless steel to make up at least one of the 45 degree bends? Currently I use those adjustable smoke pipe bends that you can twist to adjust the angle of the fitting. If I get a chance I will post pics.
 
No. I will have to take pictures to show you guys.
The Tee is for my barometric damper. Sometimes I will take out the damper to reach in there and get what I can get but I cant get much.
