    More chimney update:

    Flashing is cut and bent to shape, performing final fitting before rivoting the corners.

    Corners of flashing have been trimmed and rivoted in place.

    I still need to pack the masonry flue with insulation and seal the flashing... But its too wet to do that today. It started raining while I was cutting and bending the flashing. But at least it's all in place so rain doesnt pour down down the masonry flue. I also need to install a cap over the top of the new pipe. I have a china hat cap that will go on until I can get the kind I want in the proper size.

    The all seeing eye of the "Judge" strikes again. Was probably phoning in an offer when he noticed.
