Jake, what is that a crack house.... i think it would be hard to intentionally make such a mess out of it if you tried........
My family has a camp in ellsworth. more evidence and talk of drugs these parst few years than i would have expected..... its a shame, and explains why the camp gets broked into over winter probably 1/3 of the time.... ugh...
same thing happen to a friend of mine 2 years back- prefab insert, something along the lines of a heatalator type assembly, They had been using it quite regularly for the previous few years he just happened to lean against an adjacent wall and noticed it was hot - 2x4 support structure for fireplace had over the eons turned to charcoal and ignited- Their remodeling plans got a jump start, no one hurt several thousand dollars worth of damage, if he hadn't noticed that wall being hot the outcome could have been completely different.It's the stuff that is hidden by walls that scares me. Our old fireplace had two stove take-offs buried in the walls by subsequent remodels. One had wood framing right up against the cap! And then there is this travesty that happened in a friend's parents house. They had been burning in a stove for almost 30 years before pyrolysis finally ignited the wood. The builder put nothing between the tile liner and the wood! Fortunately no one was injured, but my friend's sister was reading in that bed when it happened.
