Wood Furnace/ Heavy Stuff


So, here i am november in NY, no heat, everyone i work for has heat. and here i go into the winter with a half done house ,with no heat, the new wife is a trooper. Today was a big day, lifted in place a 2000 lb wood burning furnace. As you can see 2 come alongs dangerously wrapped around a loft. we all took turns cranking the handle. It was interesting, but we finally got it sitting in place.

The walls surrounding the unit needed to be heat proof, i used wonderboard, then 24'' white coil with banding metal to break it up and keep it laying flat, its a good inexpensive and decent looking fire rated wall.
