The griddle surface on the top of my stove is around 9"x 18". This would mean that if I put a 10" or 12" cast iron pot on top it would overlap the griddle by about .5" to 1" on two sides. Now I plan to buy the set of pots linked below at Cabelas next week.

I'm curious about a few things before I do though...
1. If a cast iron pot gets good and hot and is resting on the paint/enamel due to that overlap I was talking about...will it damage the stove in any way whether cosmetically or functionally?
2. Can I put a dutch oven INSIDE my stove for cooking? Again, any issues there?
3. Anything else I should know before trying to cook with the stove?
Thanks!
