The lumber from the shipping box might come in handy later on.In the 1940's my grandfather worked as a telegraph operator for the railroad.He reused the lumber from shipping crates to make a dresser for all of his kids.I've got one,and it just as solid as the day he built it.

You guys are gonna have the nicest mobile home ever when you're done!

[@monicaswavel6074]

Beautiful wood stove! Wow! I've never seen one like that before! When we were growing up everyone had all kinds of wood stoves. We started by cutting trees on our land as we cleared it then we moved to buying wood. My parents had built a beautiful home by themselves except for the concrete foundation. It took a couple years since they only worked on it during the weekends when he was home. He was a truck driver. It had 35 foot ceilings and a skylight which they regretted lol. That woodstove was huge but it heated the whole house. My dad collected lava stone and did the whole wall and built a beautiful wooden box to hold the wood. My mom didn't want to see bugs...lol We lived in the mountains so every morning it was ice cold!! They switched to pellet stove after we all grew up and moved out and it was amazing. I was really surprised. It heated the entire house all night long and stayed warm even the next morning. It was easy to clean and store etc. I used to joke that they shouldn't have waited for us to move out lolol. Your house looks amazing!

Greetings from Ohio. I believe there is nothing that you cannot do. We have had a wood burner for 40 years and I love it. Yours is the classiest I have ever seen and the most simple. Can’t wait to see a fire in it. Your home is very chic and beautiful and clean and crisp looking.

[@diyfferent]

Thanks :)

[@angelahanna8988]

You have made a beautiful and safe home for your family...So proud of all of you ...You Doug and Ashley are the ages of my grandchildren..I am so happy to be going on this journey with all of you....

[@mainemagic2351]

WOW...I had a Vermont Castings Wood Stove that we bought second hand for our cabin back in the late 90's. That thing wasn't big but it was a work horse...we got a small metal bucket we would fill with water and put on the stove to add moisture when we used it. Also found a used pair of welding gloves to use...they worked great...used a few dried sea rose heads and petals in the water for natural room scent along with some essential oil....great smell...even made some bread dough using that stove...natural bread machine!!!!! Tech for wood stoves finally has stepped up to meet the various demands of homeowners.... :) Cheers from Maine

[@kimnuyen4628]

I see a wood donut and "I want to paint it black". The Stones! 😊

[@kaycox5555]

Your video was published 8 mins ago and already had 695 views!!! I think you all are popular, yay!!Marvelous video and outcome, as always. Boy your place is looking fab-u-lous!

[@monicaswavel6074]

Amazing how good the new modern wood stoves work and doesn't need to be so big anymore!! Wow!

[@freeplace5243]

I love the way you integrate different products and combine them to look like it was designed in Scandinavia.Again as always GREAT JOB!

[@jimbennett374]

Had a huge cast iron wood stove growing up. Couldnt afford propane with 6 of us kids. Also had a garden and farm animals. Miss the country sometimes.

[@EmmaAppleBerry]

Sounds wonderful. Wish i couldve been raised that way my mother was with her 9 siblings but chose to raise us in city suburbia...

[@smallfootprint2961]

I like the slow, thoughtful way you work. I've had people work for me who always seemed rushed and didn't think things through, and often the project had to be done over. You're so creative and deliberate. I love the simplicity of this stove. I like the all black, but the white sides suit your home. Your description of the convection, etc is really interesting. All so thoughtful. Thanks for taking the time to show us how you did it.

[@helenwhitmire3101]

Doug, y'all have been one of my first KZbin families since the fall of 2018 and I enjoy every minute that I spend with you. Yes, I'm a senior lady who isn't afraid of saying how I feel about my KZbin friends. I am a retired data analyst. I'm 75 years young. A mother, grandmother, and a great grandmother. I am a widow since December 2016. It is my opinion that y'all are very bright, and strong young people. I've noticed that you seem to be losing your self-esteem, both you and Ashley. Please, don't give up on yourselves. I pray God's blessings and strength upon you for the tasks each new day brings. Helen W.

[@margaretvargas1209]

To me you always give information that is useable. I have learned a lot, watching you work on your home. And I know it is going to be amazing when you are finished. God bless you and your family and your home 🙏🙏🙏🙏.

[@joycehoover5058]

Ah, Ashley’s job is technical advisor. Nice.

[@tamtam777]

lol

[@bloominginplace4791]

The black in the stove, pipes in wood rack and computer neich are a brilliant way to define the space while it remains open. It looks wonderful!

[@hollysamson3808]

Doug, slow and steady makes less mistakes. You are awesome. Love you and your family. It is great to burn wood for heat.we didn’t for 25 years when we were first married. Brings back lots of memories. Enjoy these years. 💕💕 Beautiful stove! Wow!

[@goingslightlymad7172]

The stove looks sleek and modern. Nice touch to the living room, and it provide a cozy ambiance during the cold winter days! :)

[@monicaswavel6074]

I wouldn't even consider your home a mobile home anymore lol!! Completely rebuilt!! Thank you for sharing and explaining everything!!

[@aidandoyle343]

Looks amazing !!!! Getting so excited as the Reno is almost finished

[@donnathecoach]

I'm so happy for your family! You're almost done! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@LeezeLawrence]

Just missing a couple of heat powered stove fans, great job, looks great. Might wanna cover that vent though or it'll be a nice home for yellow jackets.

[@richardjones5255]

It is your family place, your family project, your rules. It is not my place to question what you do. You explained the process clearly, showing how you arrived at your installation. Drawing ducted combustion air in from outside is very sound. I doubt you would generate a high vacuum, but making the fire burn clean with a good draw could be a real challenge without the vent. Getting the flu outside and breathing without cutting holes in the roof above the living space makes perfect sense to me. You do not want the cooler weather arriving yet to try it out, as there is still outside work to be done. It must be a comfort to know that you are ready for when the colder days arrive. Well done it is another great step along your progress line.

[@lynnhamps7052]

Really cool, such an amazing transformation since we first saw this place, A+ for all your hard work and design skills. :)

[@beverlysturgill9734]

Oh my goodness, love your new wood stove! So much better than the older models. You and Ashley do such amazing work. Can't wait to see the living room.

[@bubbajiff]

really enjoy the way you explain your thought process each time. love your style. fab videos and editing. always enjoy the content you provide x

[@sheilavanduynfote5539]

Maverick is so adorable working with Daddy, the stove looks great

[@darbla1961]

Love the stove you picked. You explained everything very well, so I don’t need to ask my question 😁 You answered it. 😁👍🇨🇦

[@diyfferent]

We always try to answer everything we can think of, haha :)

[@susannegalligan8600]

Oh reading the instructions! That’s the part I’ve been skipping over! Beautiful work, video skills excellent too.

[@diyfferent]

Thanks

[@kevinjohnson3012]

Looks like you can cook on it also! Keep the teakettle on and you will have good moisture in the dry winter air. God bless you Brother and your family!

[@heidim6468]

You know what the good news is you don’t have to go far to fill it with wood. Looks really good.

[@wurly164]

Just a tip, remove the fingerprints from the stainless before getting it hot, if you don’t, the smudges will be permanent

[@kkoontz5759]

Don't worry. Words are hard Doug. That's what I always tell myself when I mess up. 😂😂

[@mbatchelor]

I guess the wood stove is the last piece towards completing the interior of the house... Congratulations!

[@gondolin12]

Put a cast iron pot on it and you've got tea! Brilliant work as always

[@suesmith5033]

hi I'm wondering how your garden and chickens are doing? I know you two are busy working away outside. I bet it's looking great. Take care. God Bless

[@diyfferent]

We have some plants growing, but not much yet. The chickens are doing great and each day there are still new chicks hatching, I think we have about 14 chicks now :)

[@linne834]

Love the new wood stove. Sleek design and fits so well on that wall. Great job!

[@annearmstrong6789]

Awesome. Looks great

[@teresarodgers8233]

I like this stove. It doesn't take up the mass most stoves I've seen do. Can't wait for the grand tour reveal.

[@OldCritters]

That’s really modern and clean looking fits your space well guys ...beautiful! 👍💞Carrie

[@katheymann2334]

It's very modern looking & I've never seen one like that before. It does match your decor style.

[@HCely-qq1oh]

)ne problem with your install, you put the black pipe in upside down. During the winter your stove will leak creosol down the side of the pipe. The crimped end of the pipe on single uninsulated pipe always points towards the stove....

[@diyfferent]

All of our chimney pipes are double wall. The inner pipe on that piece is installed with the crimp on the inside.

[@vancemccarthy2554]

I like how it just sits there, like a piece of furniture. A square version of the old round ones of yester-century.

[@sharonthatcher8666]

I like it better without the white panels. Just my opinion:)

[@wandafrmbama5803]

MOST DEFINITELY!! If they had black that’s the way it should have went. My opinion only. Everything else was black.

[@sksbc3895]

That is one great looking stove :) Very sleek and modern. The fact that it's so lifted and away from combustibles is fantastic...that's always a big worry. I can't wait to see the entire living room altogether now! :) Very nice!

[@BrLambert]

I kinda knew the drawer was for ashes but for a split second I was thinking pizza oven lol.... seriously though, looks great!!

[@dhoward5757]

Love how you made this old home new again. Digging the floor mat at the front door, keeping it clean in the country. Always a joy to be here. Thanks!🌱

[@avonleanne]

again, winner winner chicken dinner!!!! more than that, how you thought everything through, that mindboggles me! looks fantastic!

[@betpatpatten3840]

That stove is perfect for you guys. It looks nice!!!! Great work to you all! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the living room now that you’re so close to finishing

[@karenjackson8956]

Wow I can not believe the interior is now completed. Fantastic job. Everything looks so cozy and the stove is the cherry on top. You both have an eye for decor your smart planning paid off. Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@meemawdiana5102]

How cute is Maverick drilling the paper!!!! He wants to be just like daddy and mommy!!!! So adorable!!! 🥰✌️

[@janiceconnolly8740]

Love watching your visions unfold. You have created a beautiful home for your family. I always look forward to your videos!! ✌🏻🇺🇸 God Bless

[@diyfferent]

Thanks!

[@sheryldougherty282]

I appreciate why you got the stove you did and explained it well. If someone is going through the same process you are they can feel good about buying this stove. Especially with a mobile home renovation.

[@MsWobie]

Ashley love how you dropped in! 😀

[@monicaswavel6074]

I love the stainless steel! Some bling!

[@vickimay5847]

Love it ! But most stoves I've seen installed have something on the wall to protect it from to much heat.

[@alexyarbrough5776]

This is best channel on KZbin.

[@diyfferent]

Wow, thank you :)

[@maxineward6146]

Bigger than I guessed it would be. Looks nice. As a child dad would take the stove down for the warm months and back up for winter.

[@Mary-yu3sn]

You may want to do a first burn with doors ,windows open on home..Looks great!!

[@diyfferent]

They suggest that. Especially with this stove as the paint cures during the first couple of burns.

[@bonniesingletary9231]

Anybody watching you all long would know you both do your homework and shouldn't be worried about fire safety!! Great job!!

[@DrValerie800]

That IS awesome! Can't wait to see you all sitting in the living room this winter, with a cozy fire going in that beautiful woodstove while it snows outside.

[@_sockninja_]

the last shot wouldn't be out of place in a fancy interior design magazine

[@staceydunn6094]

What a great helper Maverick is ! Everything looks great !!

[@robinrummel1359]

It's perfect for your home in so many ways! I did have all of the questions and concerns that you answered, should have known you had already thought of everything! 😉 I also appreciate all the info about what makes this stove a great selection for a "mobile" home. Looking forward to the full living room reveal!! 💕👍☺️

[@helenwhitmire3101]

Oh! The stove looks great. Enjoy it in good health. I've watched you make an old single side become better than when it came from the factory and now your double side is a better home than when it came from the factory. Congratulations. Helen W.

[@clydedecker765]

Great choices, guys. Love the look and all of the forethought.

[@lauriedunn6198]

This is great. I am always glad when you explain things. We heat with wood and it is good to know about newer models. You have also thought out the common issues-- like chimney cleaning.

[@joycejones6015]

It’s perfect Doug! It’s gonna make the house so cozy this winter. It looks sleek💕

[@sallymay3228]

I grew up with a pot belly stove in the kitchen. That thing gave off so much heat we were able to wear shorts in the winter on the first floor of the farmhouse. It didn’t use a lot of wood either which was an added bonus. We had a traditional wood stove in the basement that my dad connected to the air ducts and that one heated the second story. It cost my dad about $50 a year to heat his house.

[@mimilove5698]

Wow! The stove looks awsome!❤ Can't wait to see the living room reveal 😊😁

[@dwainefranshirk2886]

I love what you've done with your home, it's beautiful. You can certainly be proud.❤❤❤

[@markitathomas4146]

I can't wait to see the whole living room!

[@HaroldReece]

Nice looking stove. Outside combustion air is a great idea. Having the tile floor entry around the stove will sure help with the clean up of the inevitable wood debris.

[@Blessings.429]

Great job Doug, you are so clever. Look at all the jobs you have done to your the mobile home, you have looked at what every job has needed and you have done the very best of your ability . You have nearly finished 💖🇦🇺Australia

[@peggymohr7899]

Oh my goodness such a beautiful stove assembly. I would love to have a home such as yours. You have done such an excellent work on this home. Your taste and design for everything is so clean and modern I just can't say enough about it. Great work on it all. My favorite is the true black and white and clean wood work on all the rooms is just what I love.

[@diyfferent]

Thanks so much!

[@lesleymansfield57]

Wow, it must absolutely finish the room, (can’t wait for the big reveal, I’m super excited😊) everything about the stove shouts, ‘Ash and Doug!’ you two work together so well ..

[@jodijarvis1018]

Spacing was the first thing I thought of when you placed it. I thought “ oh no”. We have a big ole grandpaFisher. It’s solid steel. And 40”x30” its a big hog. It took 3 men straining to get it in. It heats our entire 1800 sq ft 2 story house.

[@madisonlee6752]

I love the modern look and safety of the new wood stove!

[@carolyncarlson3825]

That is the prettiest wood stove I believe I've ever seen. I'm another great installation. I would be proud to have that in my own home great job y'all

[@vickilee2185]

Thanks for your explanations. I'll not be installing a wood stove, but I like to know about lots of things. That's the way I learn. It's amazing how a little bit of info keeps building. It looks beautiful. All the forethought and research that you both put into each portion of the remodel shows as it comes together. Great job as always. As always, blessing and positive thoughts for your family.

[@jesper1406]

Oh Dear you will be so happy for everything you've done this summer when winter comes. I think I remember you keeping track of how much electricity/gas etc that you used for heating the first winter, right? Please let us know the difference during next winter. You will be so comfortable in this house, I'm certain... In Europe there's a lot of these types of wooden stoves, and they are very efficient and easy to live with. Your air intake is a little overkill, but you will not have problems lighting your fires... I love everything about your house and the way you guys did it, can't wait to see the finished result with the new roof and climate shield.

[@MsJWheels]

Love Ashley's "NOOO! We've never been sponsored." Shame about your holesaw but it looks like the next one up worked well. I do hope you put that screen in the dryer vent to keep the bugs out. Really appreciate how meticulous you are in your work. Excellent choice in stove. Perfect for your application. You really do your research. Interesting how a simple change in engineering makes such a difference. I've have had to take apart and clean stove pipes through the ceiling in the past and would have welcomed a clean out through the wall! You have certainly thought this through. Kudos! Take care and God bless.

[@sybilresh1905]

Bravo, well done! You have continued on with such great style and creativity. All of the careful choices that you have made with your details have made a tremendous difference in terms of the overall aesthetics of your home. Every room is thoughtfully designed and has a very peaceful vibe. You two should win some kind of award.

[@stephaniem.2909]

When you said *sponsored* I thought,why does he looks so different? whent back and realized that's the first time I see you smile 😂 I love your videos, your home and family are just beautiful!

[@diyfferent]

haha

[@jacquicoder7160]

Very nice!! Should make your living room nice and cozy on those cold winter days! I love the nice modern look to it as well. Clean and neat, not bulky and taking up a lot of room.

[@vivianwilliams2216]

I like your new wood burning stove ! It a very nice design! Look out winter !

[@dwagnerful]

Always a superior job well done. Your house is beautiful!😊👍

[@margaretbedwell58]

That is a perfect stove for your space...looks great. Have a Blessed day.

[@chickenmom1370]

Nice stove! We keep a cast iron pot filled with water on ours. It puts some moisture in the air when it's being used.

[@jkbeattyable]

Very nice! You have come so far. I imagine it is very satisfying to walk through inside your home and realize it is done, it's beautiful and you did it all yourselves. I'm looking forward to the livingroom reveal. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤

[@diyfferent]

Thanks. Yea, it's been soo nice having a complete, clean home!

[@melindaoa8668]

It looks awesome! Can’t wait for the living room reveal.😊❤️

[@cindyleeolcese4988]

Nice stove. I had wondered why you hadn't put fire retardant wall behind it but figured you had bought something not needing it. I had put marble behind mine with cement board but seeing now this doesn't do radiant heat I understand. That's a cool little stove and should roast you guys out in winter. Definitely cover that outside vent so unexpected things don't get in.

[@leslieortiz5111]

Awesome. Looks great. Can’t wait for the complete reveal

[@vdwalt4464]

The white sides keeps with the home's overall look. Another good choice. Pretty soon dad buys it and son installs it. Life is good!

[@marymisdom3955]

To use your own words...its awesome. The wood looks almost decorative!

[@Tracys_Little_Patch_of_Dirt]

Beautiful stove.

[@sallyjones7737]

One step nearer to being finished, that wood stove will keep you all so warm this winter, can just picture you all enjoying a cold winters day toasting your toes in front of the stove !!! as usual you made another great & tasteful choice.

[@garyfeltus9801]

Looks good. I like the side panels.

[@Rocketfua21]

Sweet stove duck!
