Sounds like a good idea - could also get the door and chimney openings cut.


I have all those except the torch - if I had the openings cut, maybe not
required (?).

I would suggest shopping at a fireplace shop or somewhere that sells
what you are looking for. Take some photos of what you want and
clone it.

As others have pointed out a metal box of burning wood in a building
can have dramatic consequences. The handle,& draft requires a torch
to do some bending/cutting. Might be possible to get most of the
stove cut and bent you could do the welding and get the last bit
farmed out.

A friend picked up a used stove in good shape for $150, couldn't
make one for that.
