Very nice.
Yah, more bluestone ! It's pretty and it'll save your walls from getting banged up by those hanging tools.
I wouldn't square the outside edges of the stones if I was to do it. It looks like you've got some interesting
lines in the house. Might as well add some more ?

Yep. It all has to come back out. That is a steel stove. It has to be recycled engine blocks or one of those soapy rock stoves. :lol:
Gorgeous stove and installation by the way. Congrats and enjoy! That pup is gonna toss some heat.

It's not a lie--the stove, the room and the hearth pad are all gorgeous. Good job! You have a lovely home; you'll enjoy the stove this winter. Thanks for sharing the photo.
Phase I is looking great to me. I think it will look even better if you continue the blue stone up the walls and top it off with a nice wood mantle.
Our committee has just reported out. They had your score with an explanatory comment, as well as a question concerning the determination made by another independent reviewer. First the question to the other reviewer, BrotherBart: How could you make such kind remarks about a stove installation in which the door hinges on the right side? Now, the score and comment to the OP: The committee has awarded you 9.5 out of a possible 10 points for the installation phase I. The explanatory comment reads, "OP would have been awarded a score of 10, had he not been so obviously falsely humble in wording the title of his submission...he damn well knows just like all the rest of us that what he's created there is a stunning work of art. No lie. You can appeal the committee's ruling, of course, but it won't get you anywhere. Rick
I think you might have missed your calling, unless you do that for a living 
Absolutely more rock !
Absolutely more rock !
That is a beauty! Nice job with phase one! looks like you've got lots of space to let that baby run - send some fire pics when you're burnin'!

Very nice. With a modern style house be careful the back wall does not look too rustic and take away from the beautiful lines of the house.
Now, speaking of the house, could you please share more pictures of it? If not here at least PM them to me?
Thanks!

I say rotate it a tad also, unless you are creating a small conversation area
with your furniture right in front of where it is facing. Otherwise tilt it to face
the rooms center.
It looks awesome ! And yeah do the stone in the back. I'd like to see how
you build drywalls on your property !
That's the kind of install that makes me want to buy some lottery tickets and look for a new house.
Very nice.
Very nice.
ain't half bad for a vacation home
that lamp on the far right has the leans and the mirror needs hung, haha!
I say crank that regency up there in the catskills and pray for snow, yeeeehaaaa!

That's not the "leans", it's the "lens". Interior shots are a challenge. What's making the lamp seem to lean is the same thing that's making the stovepipe look like it's not a straight vertical shot to the ceiling. Wide angle lens. Rick
That's a fine home and hearth for the Regency. You did well.
Being cautious here, and it's probably deceiving because the camera has compressed the distance. If this is double wall pipe, does the stove have at least 7" from the back wall clearance?
