102 forum posts 3 photos	In Mason's Book there are photos - Plate IX and VII that show 6 seemingly silver soldered in and arc below the Firebox door. I can find no reference to what these are either in the book, or on the plans, can anyonr tell me what they are, and what I need to do. I confess I feel a bit lost at the moment. I am sending a second message with a images Thank you in anticipation Malcolm

Brian Edit: As far as I know, you have to link to the image either in your own cloud storage (if you have any) or by creating an album on this website and placing the image there.
