Saw a listing for a local pot-bellied stove for $75. Went and looked at it. looks like it needs some cement and wire-brushing and stove paint. I gave him his asking price. I knew it was old because it said it was made in a nearby town that I know hasn't had a stove maker for years and years. Found a mention online that says they quit making stoves in the 30s. Anyway, fun stove. Probably too big for the shed, probably shouldn't burn in it if it's a local collectible, probably will waste firewood in it. I don't care. it will look cool and keep me warm when I want out of the house....
I'll post pics sometime soon.
(I don't know if I'll post this anywhere else or not, but I totally tweaked my back worse than I ever have before just by loading this stove onto the trailer. This isn't going away and it's been two weeks. I can't do anything-only thing that doesn't hurt is standing or laying. Dx is Sacroiliac Dysfunction. Progonsis is that it may be a couple of weeks, may be a couple of years, may take physical therapy, may not. 100% sure that it will make me miserable for a while.)
