stovepipe3_thumb.jpg - 2370 Bytes As you see in this photo, I've used the scribe to mark the outside of the vent. I also marked two of the screw holes.


stovepipe4_thumb.jpg - 1717 Bytes I drilled out two holes and mounted the vent. Then marked and cut out the damper opening. Once again I put the top barrel back on the bottom to check fit the collar.
