\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here’s the living area photo from the book.\u00a0Unfortunately, there is no pattern for the stove included.\u00a0There are three pegs on the side of the firebox in the photo.\u00a0I didn’t add them to the one I built since I didn’t have a walnut dowel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The pattern was very simple to follow, and my two cut curves came out very close! :D I did change the dimensions slightly, because the sheets of walnut I had on hand were narrower than the largest pattern piece.\u00a0I finished the box with one coat of Delta Ceramcoat Satin Varnish to bring out the beautiful color and grain.\u00a0I added a light wash of black and brown to make it less shiny and new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>I will finish the side deck before drilling the hole in the bottom for the battery and switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
