All you carpenters, math majors etc.:
OK, I need some idea as to what dimensions my hearth pad should be. The stove is 25" across front and 26" back to front. Need at least 6" from front ash drawer and 4 " from corners to wall. It will be setting cross-wise in a corner and there will be 3 equal length pieces across front. I'd like to be able to stand on it and fill the hopper so I'll need some space there as well as place for a pail. I plan on 2x4's on edge, 1/2" plywood, 1/2" hardibacker board then tiles.
What are some "roomy" dimensions you have for your hearths? Or what would you think would be a good size for the above?
Thanks so much, guys.
