So we have this 'ludicrous install' thread a couple times a year, but it's always the same few photos.
In the interest of keeping y'all amused, and keeping bholler's eye twitching, I give you: Some Different Ones!![Smile :) :)](/talk/styles/default/xenforo/smileys/grin.gif)
This savvy wood burner knows to keep the woodpile close, because there is going to be a porch fire anyway and it's better to just get it over with.

Moving along. Did you ever want to test your chimney sweep to see if he has all the tools of the trade in his truck? Well, look no further than this stove. @bholler, top-down or bottom-up for this one?

If that is too spendy for ya, here's a plan for re-using that old rotted out water heater to keep your house warm! (Very warm.)

Yes, old stuff can be re-used instead of simply thrown away. One time per house, anyway.

Clearances may be reduced by up to 12" with the addition of air-gapped micore, or all the way down to zero if you stick a piece of corrugated roofing on there.

Flues must follow the 10-2 rule. This means your flue should stick out the window about 10 inches and then go up 2 feet above the window.

When exiting your window, be sure to support your grill's flue with a sturdy plywood ramp so it doesn't sag and contact something combustible.

And this one could even be safe, for all I know. So I'm leaving you with that one!
