Hopefully Jason won't mind me posting this, if the picture goes down then you will have to wait till the competition to see it :)

This is a before picture, fresh from the "barn". I am working on fixing it up so it will be ready for the competition.

Wanted to give a shout out to the guys at Byler's stove shoppe in Dover, DE they hooked me up with this stove for free.

Your a stand up guy. Getting a stove and cleaning it up for a total internet stranger.
 
Old Treemont, right?
 
Perfect stove for the device as I see it. Representative of a bazillion of them still out there and burning.
 
good to see that a stove was found to work for ya, i was not really happy with the results i had found when i blasted that old 18-p i was going to bring ya. glad to see you have a solid unit to use for the contest. looking forward to meeting you up in DC
 
I had it pretty easy, the guys at Bylers loaded it into the back of my Durango laying on its back using a fork lift, All I did when I got home was hook up the come along and plopped it on my trailer to start working on it. I have slimmed the weight down some removing unnecessary parts but she is still a beast to move.
 
I'm close and have an unused Treemont in my garage. And can help w/ delivery.
(haven't read the 4 pages on this thread... so disregard if you've found something already).
 
Macattack your proximity makes your offer worth considering although it would be a shame to waste Mellows fine effort. Perhaps post a picture of it as the model Mellow has is going to be an easy conversion. Now if you help me uplift Mellows one that would be great but it would take up most of a day with the distance to travel.

I can't tell much from that image and an internet search hasn't dragged up any info on the model. It does look like the model with the side loading door? If nothing else can I used that as a back up in case I can't get out to Mellow for any reason?
 
it say's it's an insert, but...[Hearth.com] Stove required for "Wood Stove Design Challenge"
 
might not work any way... see the baffeling?

Yea, he needs a clear shot to the bottom for his device. The stove I picked up already had the baffle removed so it worked out.

Does that also have the ash shaker rack on the bottom of the firebox?

Agree... your stove would be a better fit.
This one does have an ash shaker rack on the bottom of the firebox (no/lost handle)
