Old Bangor Maine Stove

[SpaceBus]

My mother in law is a musician and was hired for a party and sent me some photos of the wood stove they used. It's a monster! Probably made around 1885-ish, at least most other Wood and Bishop stoves I've seen were made in the late 19th century.

More like 1985 it's some homade thing made with the door from an old furnace.

I was confused about the plate construction, this makes more sense. Still a neat stove!

Nope about 20 gals out of that one. Replacing it with a regency 5100 next week. The 60 gal one is allot bigger and a boiler.

Wow, hard to imagine something with a larger firebox than the two stoves we posted.

Wow, I just looked up the Regency 5100, 90 lbs of wood is a lot.

3'x3' loading door 6' deep with a 12" vent. I am sure it came out of some industrial building.

Ahhhh, now the 60 gallons makes sense. That is still a huge solid fuel appliance. Was it moved to a house? I must have missed a lot of details in the 60 gallons of creosote thread.
