    What do you think about using these for a heat exchanger in a wood stove?

    I suspect they would cake up with creosote pretty quick, and I'm not sure how they would react to the extra heat of the fire - you could have a mess on your hands. Not something I'd try.

    They also have lead sweges that would probably melt. If you find the right customer they are worth some bucks.

    Kind of pricey, they could be had for less than $30 around here.
