Thanks, now if I could only figure out how to post pictures, instead of adding links.

Those pics look good.
You say that's a wall tent stove?
A lifetime of camping and I've never seen one.
More pics when you figure out the posting process?

Hit the search on here cause there's more than one thread on how to do it - image shack seems to work the easiest… for me anyway. :D


And on the eighth day God created barbecue …. because he DOES love us and he wants us to be happy. :D

Have you run the numbers through the pit calculator to make sure the stove will work as a FB?

Yes a little on the small side ( about 200 cu. In.), but will compensate with a bigger inlet and cc to fb opening. Might use a little more wood, but I don't have to build something I had around.

I had this firebox, made for a wall tent I don't have any more.

If your wondering why the FB is perpendicular to the CC, it's so it fits under my patio ( limited space ). Any comments or criticism on this is welcome. Not sure if it matters or not. :-)
