You aren’t afraid of hard work obviously! A great balance of brains and brawn, sir. 😊 You have inspired us to re-do the floor under our wood burning stove😊
It was neat watching the whole process. My favorite part was probably the stove watching you take it apart put it all back together. My husband owns his own Refractory business, so it was awesome watching you work with the fire brick. I like your videos because you show how they did back then.
Wow what a great job. Granny use to have a smaller potbelly in the small house she heated the whole house with. She would fire it so where the belly would glow. When you walking in the house within a half an hour you wanted to know off the sleep. It was so toasties in there.
Hey Jerry, I completely agree with you on both points; thinking about starting something because you know how much work's gonna be involved and when it's done, it's done! You did a great job there and you get to see and enjoy the results! Nice job! From Sophia, N.C.
Thank you for the video! I have my great great grandmother’s potbelly stove and now I know what I need to get for its restoration! I’ll tell my dad and he will probably come get it and do it.
As always, enjoyed watching the project take shape. Thank goodness Lavender was available to supervise and keep you on task..heh heh. Thanks for sharing.
I'm sure I could have watched a lot more of this process. Loved watching the hearth building. Like your daughter, though, my stomach had the willies just watching you both near that hole!! After having built a very short rock garden edge wall, there is nothing more satisfying than placing a stone that fits perfectly next to another, like they were separated at birth! Beautiful work, as always.
Absolutely gorgeous potbelly stove. Your install was perfect in every way. I have seen many through the years. All had metallic outer rings, whether brass or chrome. None had black. Interesting.
As a degreed physical education bachelor's I'd say that all your work makes you physically fit. By the way the tinkerers box is a insulated room in my garage on a slab. My unattached hose is old over 108. I don't plan on moving. So if my old hose falls apart I will be living in the tinkerers box. It is the first time I have owned a home.
Nice cabin. In the future can you show us the construction in the basement supporting the rock, concrete and stove? 😁Definitely going to hold and radiate the heat long after the stove goes out. Great refurb on the potbelly/parlor stove. Subscribed 😊😊😊
Not only is your new stove cool, but I really like that big wooden mallet you were using as well! Very cool. And...your "stone work" continues to impress! Great job. Beautiful work brother. PS: I didn't notice you putting any steel reinforcement into your concrete pour.. I hope that doesn't come back to bite you later..
How many 6x6 did you use to hold up the floor with all that wight with all the rocks and wood stove very well job thanks for the video God bless you and your family amen
Really interesting and nice stove.. no disrespect intended, but I really have to ask how all that weight is sufficiently being supported by that one timber?
I looked up automatic chisel and a similar set up found on Amazon....Short Barrel Air Hammer Kit with Quick Change Retainer and 4 Chisels. 😺Like the stone hearth floor. Wonder if u could do moulds of barrel exterior to make 3 rounded black ceramic tile pieces. - to give more radiant heat. Any excuse for a large kiln. Restored stove looks terrific. Nice style 🌭🐕☕🍁🐈
Q? Hey Jerry, What affect if any does having a very tall chimney have on efficiency or percentage of the gasses burned etc? Also, will that cause the gasses to cool off before exiting leaving creosote in the chimney etc?
That is a very good question. A none airtight stove like this is different than an airtight stove. These old stoves tend to get a much better complete combustion meaning burning up all the smoke. No smoke coming out the chimney. Yes, a straight tall chimney like I have helps tremendously. Now with an airtight stove that doesn’t get complete combustion you do have to be careful because it will build more creosote in the chimney.
You need to find a strong young man to apprentice with you, help with the heavy lifting and learn all the skills you have to pass along. These things are becoming a lost art.
Loved the post,,, but the redundancy of doing that is beyond belief. My box wood has been sitting on an slate slab,joined with mortar for 38 yrs,,right on the flooring.....as have countless others since cast iron stoves became normal......i have even saw sand pit boxes with a pot belly sitting there.
That is not a pot belly stove.. It's a parlor stove.. They are my favorite stoves for ascetics but they are horrible for heat.. They are very thin so no mass and they eat firewood like crazy.. You can't leave the house for more than a couple hours at best or you will have a cold stove
@domading2759 I’ve been burning this one since I put it in and it doesn’t go through wood like crazy. As matter of fact it holds a fire all night long. Yes I would agree it was probably meant for coal. But all most all stoves back then had shaker grates. I do have coal but it’s getting harder and harder to find.
I liked how you brought 2000 year old technology for moving heavy objects into play. Well done.
You aren’t afraid of hard work obviously! A great balance of brains and brawn, sir. 😊 You have inspired us to re-do the floor under our wood burning stove😊
Very nice!
Darn good job. I wish I could get a shot of the basement to see how you constructed everything to hold such weight. Always enjoy watching.
Remember the titans.
He could have been talking about my mother(inlaw). 😊
I also wonder why he used such large heavy stones? seems like a great deal of weight, wondering why he didn’t just do a flagstone hearth?
I wonder how "level" that is?? 😊
Jerry,
Another great video. Thank you for taking time to build, film, edit and post this video.
Your very welcome
Good job Jerry. Very impressive. Emily was a big help.
Thank you my friend, she was!
@@logcabinlifestyle absolutely amazing stonework Jerry.

It looks so good. I’m sure it will last a long time. Beautiful
That new (old) stove is beautiful! Great job fixing her up. I love the the ornate designs on that stove. Great job on the stone work too.

That stove is just a thing of beauty, and what a work is going in to it. ❤
Thank you for the video! I have my great great grandmother’s potbelly stove and now I know what I need to get for its restoration! I’ll tell my dad and he will probably come get it and do it.
That’s what dads are for!
Love the long-form video!
Thank you
Nice, I love that rocker too!
How in the world did you accomplish all this with a badly injured shoulder!? Beautifully done! Wow
Do you believe in miracles? I do.
Good job there buddy, it so relaxing watching other folks work. That stove should see you out! Enjoy.
As always, enjoyed watching the project take shape. Thank goodness Lavender was available to supervise and keep you on task..heh heh. Thanks for sharing.
I’m so amazed with your talents God has surly blessed you
🇺🇸🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼🇺🇸 I love all your carpentry skills that you have just like St. Joseph
Wonderful! It is so nice to see what you do and how you do it. A wholesome experience with a man that is working hand in hand with God. Bless you.
Thank you Brother
I enjoyed the video very much. Thank you for taking the time to post. Great job! Take care, "Poverty Hill" Brian
Good job on that stove , and AWESOME. Intro to the video my friend . THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA........

Good morning!!! It’s beautiful 🔥🔥🔥🌿🕊
Great job and well worth the work you put in!
That stove is awesome! Love the stone work!
what a pair of beautiful stoves!!
Great video and beautiful, old stove!! Love your channel!!
Great job! Thanks for the video,
The cat with the hammering of the floor joist really surprised me.
What an ingenious gadget for lifting bricks!
Absolutely gorgeous potbelly stove. Your install was perfect in every way. I have seen many through the years. All had metallic outer rings, whether brass or chrome. None had black. Interesting.
I believe these were nickel plated at one time but someone painted it. I’m kinda the same. Don’t care for the flashy
@@logcabinlifestyle I get it. Looks cool.
Thank you for showing me the definition of man God's wonderful creation. You're his master piece and that beautiful pot belly is yours ❤❤❤🦁🐑🕊
👍 AN ABSOLUTELY AWESOME VIDEO..LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT...GOD BLESS YOU YOUNG MAN AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER AND THE FUR BABIES 🐾🐾🙏 AND YOUR MOMMA 💕
Lovely stove, great work

I would have thought you would have loaded secondary fires from the top. Can that stove do that? Beautiful stove and cabin, btw.
I’ll do another separate video of a more in-depth video on the stove. But yes it has an 8” hole in the top
Beautiful Video. Happy Thanksgiving.
Beautiful room.
thank you great show
If you ever want to part with that smaller one I'd be interested in putting it into my tinkerers box.

Nice job! I think I would paint some of the cast silver.
Great vid, TY.
May YAH Bless.
Your cute cat sure is interested in what Dads doing down there framing,, lol
AWESOME!!!!
Thanks Jerry
Wish we could have seen from the basement the full support. We just went from vertical beam to concrete being spread. Cool video though.
Very awesome!
She reminds me of myself when my husband asks me for help😂😂😂
very interesting and impressive.
Was that a bird that flew by at 27:16 ? 🕊️ I really enjoyed this video,that floor is solid,well done ✝️❤️🤠
The door was open most of the day. I think it might have been a fly
@@logcabinlifestyle ,I thought it was cool,you sure have a beautiful home ,praise God ✝️❤️🤠
@ thank you, and yes he is so so good
How many 6x6 did you use to hold up the floor with all that wight with all the rocks and wood stove very well job thanks for the video God bless you and your family amen
There 2 6x6 and the one 12x12 I dropped in the video
Really interesting and nice stove.. no disrespect intended, but I really have to ask how all that weight is sufficiently being supported by that one timber?
It’s also on the house foundation but that’s one big timber and honestly could probably hold 10x that weight
I'd like to have seen how the stones were supported.
Really great work. What's the tool you use to split the rocks called?
I looked up automatic chisel and a similar set up found on Amazon....Short Barrel Air Hammer Kit with Quick Change Retainer and 4 Chisels.
😺Like the stone hearth floor. Wonder if u could do moulds of barrel exterior to make 3 rounded black ceramic tile pieces.
- to give more radiant heat. Any excuse for a large kiln. Restored stove looks terrific. Nice style 🌭🐕☕🍁🐈

A beautiful addition to your fireplaces. And a lot of work.
Just a bit of my parents humor.
Did you have a lot of over spray to clean up? Nice use of the burn barrel
No, none at all. That paint drys very fast
@@logcabinlifestyle Cool. Excellent job on that stove
Sweet, what about the hay?
How often do you think the barrel portion will have to be replaced? Might need a extra one for a couple years from now? Just curious.
This would have been the first time since 1896, so I’m guess by 2150 it will need done again
Is that a Glenwood Oak 30?
You need to find a strong young man to apprentice with you, help with the heavy lifting and learn all the skills you have to pass along. These things are becoming a lost art.
How's your shoulder?
Morning sir
Good morning
@@logcabinlifestyle I know you said the potbelly stove can also burn coal but are you gonna burn wood in it most of the time?
Loved the post,,, but the redundancy of doing that is beyond belief. My box wood has been sitting on an slate slab,joined with mortar for 38 yrs,,right on the flooring.....as have countless others since cast iron stoves became normal......i have even saw sand pit boxes with a pot belly sitting there.
i probably would have just bought a steel plate to set it on and hope for the best.
The Young woman in your video couldn't be more enthused.
My daughter and she doesn’t enjoy hard work like I do. Also she was afraid of that hole in the floor. All in all she did great and I needed her help.
Dont get a hunia!

@@biggeordie245 yes.. They are made for coal.. They have a shaker grate

looks like you got a great partner
Now you have black dust overall. And in your lungs too.
Exactly why I’m not married,
Not a pot belly stove ... parlor stove
