I just purchased a Vermont Castings Intrepid II after watching Craigslist the past year while finishing up my cabin. I would have preferred a larger model but it's not intended as our primary heat source and I couldn't pass up the price on this one that is in fantastic shape. This forum has been a wealth of information but there is one thing I can't seem to find anywhere. I know I can purchase a new factory rear heat shield for the stove but I have the metal and tools to easily make my own if I knew what it looked like and how far it extended. I wasn't sure if the factory shield followed the contour of the back of the stove or was curved or how far it extends past the top and sides... Does anyone have a photo or link to a picture showing the shield mounted on an Intrepid?
Thanks for any help.
