Only had an hour or so to fiddle today, so I shortened the skid and ground the end of the pipe where I cut it. Not the best use of time, but I couldn't resist stacking things up...happy to report everything lines up...whew!
Next time I get after it I'll do the fit up grinding (not much, really!) and weld the pipe to the skid at the top, then roll it over so I won't have to fight gravity with the welds from the skid to the pipe from below.
Plenty to still do on the firebox and warmer section, but this was nice to see today.
