I bought it because it had a less kw burner, thought it could save gas compared to the newer models. Also the back hatch to keep the heat in and the forge kit with gloves and tong. So I needed to spend a couple of weeks on having it coated with fire cement and after, a fire proof sealant. I cut the fire stone that came with to fit the new smaller space, I used the leftovers to partially seal the front as well.
I replaced the valve and hose and built an ad-on to keep the hose further away for better quality. Also put 2 bolts in the chimney to keep it steady. I fire it up with my kitchen burner for brulee pudding. And it works very well. Made 5 knifes and learning. It eats gas though, 8-10kg for maybe 3-4 hours. The tongs needed to be adjusted and hardened, but I got a gas forge now so no problem. The gloves were fine too.
