Here are some pictures of my modifications. See my description in my original post.
Here's the base I made out of angle iron and flats. It's 8 1/2" tall to match where the fire bowl originally was placed in the chamber.
Here's a picture of the expanded metal grate.
Here's the damper assembly fully open.
Now fully closed.
The fire bowl assembly with ash tray (pie tin)
Detail of cut down leg.
The whole thing put together.
