Note - we are just updating the wiki to a new one!

I will make a timberline entry and put this there!

I changed the images of the manual to a single PDF

Thanks, Copeland!

First off, do you have access to a-:
welder
grinder
drill press?
If so, PM me, I think I have detailed pics. of my Timberline mods., to add a hefty baffle and secondary air. material cost was less than $100 and well worth it.
And yes, you need to add a rope gasket to the stove, but not the doors. The doors will squish the gasket in place, and it'll work better.
After mods., flue temps @ 900 or so, 10-12 hr. burns, and plenty of heat. Burned as clean as my BK does, if not more so
BUT- it's only worth doing if you can do the work yourself, a welding shop would kill you on cost.

Can I get pics of the modifications?

Why can't we PM BEETLEKILL?

There's a hyphen. Did you try Beetle-Kill ?

I just leaned a couple of boards of Wonderboard against the stone hearth backing. It was crude, but effective. Those clearance requirements were another reason I sold that stove. Just didn't work in that location.
Coaly, my Timberline had a UL tag that said "made in Colorado Springs" on a shield. Does that sound correct?

Hi there Beetle-Kill !

Merry Christmas, I moved in to a place in Evergreen with the old 2 door timberline woodstove insert. I see you have some recommendations for the skilled DIYer. Can you please share! I'll be happy to share some elk meat in return. OREN SCHMIDT [email protected] 7206446736

Won't let me send him a message! Maybe because I'm a new member?

Could be. If so, post a couple more times and see if that works.

Its going go be tucked in a brick lined fireplace. We were going to use a chimney liner to attach to the stove to vent it. Its a monster fireplace in an old farm house. Any suggestions on installation?? Thanks for all the info so far.

The PDF for the Timberline stove appears to be missing pages 4 & 5.

Would like to see this conversion.
