Common parts source?

[rwthomas1]

Hello All,
Eventually I'm going to need things like gaskets for the combustion blower, rope gaskets for the door, etc. I'm assuming that some of you are using "aftermarket" materials to make your own gaskets, etc. and getting door gasket materials online. Where are you purchasing from and what do you recommend for combustion blower gasket material? Last time I disassembled the blower the gasket was getting tired. I'm pretty sure I could cut gaskets from automotive exhaust gasket material? I'm not against getting stuff from my local dealer, I have a good relationship with them, but I don't want to be beholden to them either.....
Thanks, RT

It would help if we knew what stove you have. To make things easier, please put your stove's make, model, and year in your signature line.

As for comb. blower material, a lot of us are buying sheets of Lytherm gasket material and are making our own:

Running a Lopi Pioneer, with what looks like about a 1" gasket on the door. That Ebay link is what I'm talking about, thanks, RT
