more effort (and money) than it's worth.


He says he has a ton of welding equipment and brags on his skills at
using it. So a custom curb should be a piece of cake and cost next to
nothing. But you have to consider the obvious - the stove is currently
backed up against OSB sheeting because anything better is too much
effort to expect from the owner. Therefore there's virtually zero
chance of a custom curb installation or anything like it even if
someone else welded it up and handed it to him for free.
