I made this fireplace. It's a propane fireplace, not real. :) I'm too old to be chopping wood or cleaning up. :D Sorry about the blurry picture. I figured I'd better take a picture fast (BEFORE HOUSE CATCHES FIRE!). :D
The room was a 2 car carport when we bought the house. Now it's a big room. The fireplace gets the room real hot. I think we will be able to open the door to the house and help with it's heating. That may bring down the cost of running the central heater. We'll see.
I forgot to mention a plug for Dremel. The stones on this fireplace are called "air stone". They are solid but not as solid as real brick or stone. I got them at Lowe's. But the EZ545 (ez-lock diamond wheel) cut and shaped these stones with so much success I was amazed. I love how this cutting wheel did so much I want to get another one. BUT, the one I used showed no sign of loosing it's cutting and shaping capability. It cuts like a circular blade and shapes also with the diamonds on both sides of the wheel. Great great accessory for you Dremel guys who have never used it. It's close to $20 on widgetsupply.com but it's well worth it IMO.
