How do you most easily and effectively move a Vermont Castings Encore 2550 woodstove?
Here are the concerns: wieght 350 lbs
Already in an alcove/fireplace
Do not want to scratch the wooden floor that in in front of the slate (approx 18 inches of slate in front of stove)
Only about 4-6 inches of clearance on either side and on top
Do not wish to damage stove of the heat shield below the ash pan
Any thoughts or experience on how to do this without wrecking either my back, the floor or the stove???
