I ordered a piece of "NeoCeram" from onedayglass.com
(there may be better prices around) to replace my filler
plate on my multi-fuel stove. It has a faint tint, but looks
just like glass and is good for 1470 degrees F continous!
It's nice because I can see the status of the fire without
bending over and looking thru the peephole and I have
light from the flames dancing on the ceiling. It's quite
pricey but worth it, methinks.

I have an SS threaded screw-eye with two sets of nuts
and lockwashers. There is a gap between the sets of nuts
to allow for expansion. Obviously, I had a 1/4" hole put
dead center in the ceramic.

:-D

Neat Mod. Why the screw-eye? Is that what holds the glass in place? Sorry I can't tell form the pic. What are you using to seal the glass?
 
The screw-eye is for the end of the poker to tilt it open
and throw in more pellets. The tubes underneath are
the heat exchanger pipes built into the stove. There was
no "seal" on the metal cover that came with the stove
but I'm told I can buy a special tape for this if I wish.
