I need a piece of metal sheet around 1mtr square, to fill in the present fireplace hole behind the new stove.

It only needs to be thin alloy, tin, or S/S, anything fireproof, but googling on line is just bringing up silly prices. Any help appreciated.

If you can find someone who can get it from Kilmarnock to old deer I should be able to help.

Thanks Graeme, although you have already been a fantastic help with the MMC discs.

I am sure that I could sort something out with the S_E shuttle service.

Cheers

Plasterboard is fire proof.. Is there a flue penetrating it?

The 6" flue exits from the back of the stove so would go through. I do in fact have plasterboard with a shiny tin side, but i would have to do it in two pieces, and would prefer a single piece.

Alu road sign ?

Pikey?

Phone round metal fab shops for offcuts?

I get all my sheet metal from a place in Bridge of Don, it's on Broadfield road just down from Autosave. Sorry, can't remember the name of the place (i'll edit post if i remember). Reasonable prices and they deliver.

Tut let me know what you want and I can see what I can do on Tuesday when I'm back at work.

Sounds good Scotty, will post you a pic of the empty fireplace and the measurements.

ps:- if this works then I could well be in TT for the foreseable future. Promised her that the house would always be warm, and this should do it at a hell of a lot less than the oil. Just bought her a soft closing toilet seat, and it has a great sensing lamp on it that lights up at night green if the seat is down, and red if it is up, so also makes sure that I hit the centre every time.

Does not take much to keep a women happy, live and learn youngsters.

Not liking the sound of that loo seat Tut
240v conducted to your willy would certainly be invigorating !

Especially over such a short distance

Fortunately AA batteries Iain.

However as you lot will find out as you get older if you ever live that long, you may have to get up a couple of times a night for a pee, Scotty twice that, so being a considerate husband, it means that I do not have to put a light on and wake up V.

Next move is to fit up a heater in the water itself, as it does get a bit cold on the bell end when you are standing there in the early hours of the morning.
