Default stove fit

Just fitted the stove - done the fire cementing.
Configuration is out of the top, 600mm stove pipe, connector, flexi liner.
6" all the way.
Did a dry run first all fine, do it for real and I end up with pipe side of
connector a bit skewwiff.
There is 50mm throw - pipe to connector and I've got the full 50mm on one
side and about 40mm the other.
I don't think I need to worry. I repacked the join afterwards and I've got a
bracket inside the stack just above the connector bolted front and back, so
it should be really rigid below that.
I'm going to let the joins dry out for 24hrs or so to prevent the voids from
steam, then do a slow as bake as I can muster. Hopefully it'll be okay.
Horrid job though.
When I'm sure it's smoke tight I'll rivet up the register plate, pour in the
Vermiculite and fit the pot.
