picking up a woodburning kitchen stove

 Ah... in the Netherlands, old technology is cheap.  People dont want it. I picked up a woodburning kitchen stove for 40 euros. It will need repair of course, but the bones are good and I have some sheets of stainless steel I got for free.   The plate directly over the fire box has been run too hot and has cracked. It should just need a new plate. It is wedged in the rectangular piece, but I am hoping I can pop it out with a hammer. Baking box is shit. This will be completely rebuilt in stainless. lots of odds and ends inside the baking box.   The side with the firebox is damaged from being run too hot, but this is an easy fix. very minor rust on front   firebox looks good. Bottom of firebox looks good. Often these iron grates are in bad shape. ash box has been repaired once before and is still usable.

The first major repair is underway: a stainless steel sheet has been cut to fit and is being pop-riveted on to the original back wall. this will seal up the rust holes and provide a new lip for the top cooking surface to be bolted on to. Tomorrow I need to pick up more drill bits as I've only managed to get two holes done and riveted. I will do the oven section next, then look into insulating the firebox with high temperature ceramic wool.
