ANOTHER ALTERATION

I decided that I would like to have a recessed alcove for my stove and the best place to do this was the back wall of the kitchen behind the stairs. I measured the height and width of the stairs and it seems that I could get an inglenook type of space under the stairs. I used my Dremel tool to poke holes  until I could use my craft knife to cut out the wall opening. I sanded the side and top of the opening until smooth and square; then I dressed the top and right side of the open space by trimming them out with wood strips.

The pencil markings on the wall is the outline of the Hearth

This is the fireplace hearth.

 I used wood putty to fill out any spaces and chips around the opening. Aaarrrgh1111

This is my stove in the making, I used crazy glue to affix the sides and top of  the kit to the front section, All I need to do now is spray paint the whole thing black and attach the door and the pipe.
