A long weekend and some more to report.
Doors are going on now. I had some trouble getting them to sit flush, so I may not need the vents I anticipated. Some tests will see.
The latches worked well however!
I used bolts scored from a builder neighbor several years ago. I have hundreds of them, just had to buy a box of nuts to suit.
The grate sits on the reo bars which are supported through the drum wall with bolts. Similarly for the ash pan, although the supports here are flat sided square sections which will allow sliding of the tray.
Happy to have made this much progress. Just some smaller finishing touches to go now.
Brian.
