Chrysnbon parlor stove, part 1


otterine

Another kit from my stash is the Chrysnbon parlor stove. It is fancier than I need for my build, so I have a few changes in mind to tone down the bling.

I left out the acetate window films included with the kit. I plan to paint the stove to a uniform black, so adding the acetate would have been pointless. They would end up covered up with paint. A lot of the silver pieces had the finish worn away in places, so it was a good thing I didn't plan to make this kit straight out of the box. It was still worth the $1 I paid for it.

One nice thing about this kit is that the injection marks are mostly located in places that are covered by other pieces. There was very little prep work needed to address those. I assembled the main lower body and left the pipe, dome top, base and topper separate. This method will allow for easier painting and addressing the windows afterward.

Brae, you're scaring me. I have the rocker and parlor stove for mine too. Are we building the same thing? I mean, we are, but are we? :lol:

Oh wait, I see yours is for the Creating Contest. :doh:
