VC Intrepid II Rebuild is complete. Dropped a double walled, insulated liner down my chimney. Connected the flu to to the stove with a T (I had to buy a $50 crimping tool, my wife wasn't happy).
One question - if you look at the closer picture, picture 2... do you think that is too much flame for a wood stove that has the air intake turned DOWN but the damper open? I am afraid that flame is telling me there are air leaks somewhere. let me know what you think!
