It sounds like it might be a fine idea to remove the stove to the
outdoors, clean it, paint it or black it, fire it up and, once it cools,
move it back inside.

Yeah and when you first do that it is cold outside, so you gotta open
the doors and windows...

Paint will burn off and smoke also..
Stove black has been used for decades to "shine up stoves". It just
has to
have a seasoning fire to finish the process.. Likely you built a
large fire
and burned it off instead of "setting it".

I had a woodstove some years ago, it was getting a bit of surface

I took some steel wool and wire brush to it, that did pretty well.
Then I
put some "stove black" on it, which was sorta like shoe polish or
paste wax
kind of stuff. It looked nice for the summer. Then the first time
I fired
it up, that stuff started burning off (or, rather, smoking off) and
stunk
up the house and clogged the air with smoke. Not sure why something
like
that would behave that way, but it might be worth testing whatever
stuff
out before you polish up the stove. The black paint might be
better, but
probably takes more prep.

That is excellent Curt. Only i'd apply the stove black, or as someone
else suggested, black hi temp spray paint. That makes the visual much
better.
Craig is largely right on. Add to that you either need a new
camera or
better lighting, your pictures are all washed out, it shows
everything in
possibly the worst view possible.
Oh and your trolling for hits at the bottom includes words already in
the ad, you don't need to do that and it just makes you look
desperate.
For these two items I think your prices are too high. The scrap
value of
the mower is MAYBE $50, last I knew scrap on a CAR was like $200.
To get
over a hundred you'd have to part it, the aluminum is the only really
valuable stuff and theres just not enough.
People basically give away woodstoves, I got my Jotul 118 for $200
and
it was all cleaned and nice. People want stuff they can install
and use not
spend a week cleaning up first.
Unfortunately your ads all scream "This stuff is all too broken
for me
to want, maybe you are dumber than I am."
Try this:
Winter is coming, stay warm with with a Buckstove "Regular Buck"
(model
27000) wood burning stove.
This stove features an 8 inch flue and blower to help spread the heat
around on those cold winter nights. Its also got a screen to allow
you open
door fires. Enjoy the dancing flames and glowing embers plus the
enhanced
efficiency of a stove versus a drafty fireplace.
This stove was made in the USA by one of our premiere stovemakers
who is
still in business, parts and manuals available on their website,
why buy a
cheap junk stove from Asia when you could have made in USA quality
for a
fraction of the price?
This unit has been in storage for the last 10 or 12 years and has
a bit
of surface rust on the doors and iron frame surrounding the doors.
It will
clean up like new with minimal effort and some stove black.
