Re: new build in werribee

Thanks Guys will check all that out. trouble with flue manufacturers is the limit too 900mm length pipe.

Gudday Colin
You haven't compromised on anything to date so the flue is no exception.
What's the minimum buy amount? Is it sensible to buy that amount and sell them on the forum ,gumtree, eBay? It is winter its the season to sell flues Just a thought

Regards Dave

Thanks Dave I thought about that but minimum buy is 100. But I haven't been able to find a supplier directly only things like alibaba. Don't have that sort of money.

You are paying $3.30 per brick? Wow...that's more than triple than around here.

Yeap. Stonecutter that's the price down here. EVERYTHING COSTS THE EARTH in Australia.

I put in a few flues for fire places in Melbourne
Cheapest I found was Wood Heaters Melbourne, Gas Log Fires Melbourne, Flues Melbourne | Just Flues
it was a while ago though

Tropical spoke too the owner he was to give me a quote but never received however he couldn't do longer than 900mm

Nice tapered arch Colin, yes it is pretty and you can say you did it all yourself.

[oasiscdm]

Re: new build in werribee

Thanks Russell. Are you referring inner arch?

[UtahBeehiver]

Re: new build in werribee

Really all of your build but the inner arch or the inner part of the tapered arch is very nice.

Re: new build in werribee

Russell I see, still get lost with terminology but I have many others to thank that went before me for developing the technique.

Very appreciative of them all and thank you for the compliment Russell, feel though the hard part is left to do, the last 4 courses and that landing I'm playing with.

Colin,
Have you seen/considered a flashing cone as a transition to you flue?

The gas heating brochure here is a read
PRODUCTS

Also have a local steel fabricator who will roll a flue in 1200mm

AWF Sheetmetal

try these guys

I used to get lots of metal bent by them Im pretty sure they do SS and down pipes so they should be able to make a flue

again years ago

Re: new build in werribee

Hi tropical

have contacted them too. I'm beginning to think what I am seeking is not possible. but as Dave pointed out I haven't compromised at this point so why should I start now.

[oasiscdm]

Re: new build in werribee

Hey tropical

Well check out awf sheet metal. Someone else put me on to them. The quote I got still too high st 680. Then I would still need a cap.
When I rang awf they seemed to be more reasonable.

Re: new build in werribee

Ive bought zinc caps of them in the past,they would probably make you a ss one.
