Beth's "New" Antique Kitchen Stove

"New"Antique Stove

This is Beth's new stove. Well really it's an antique coal/wood cast iron stove that I converted with a functioning  gas cook-top. The complete inside was removed and replaced with a plywood "box" matching the dimensions of the old iron and steel carcass. The outside panels, doors and cast iron top were then attached to the box. The "oven" is now just storage as well at the space behind the two side doors.

Mike and Johnny June Weigh In

Mike came in at 265.2 pounds, at loss of 9.43 pounds or 3.43%
Johnny cane in at 334 pounds with a loss of 12 pounds or 3.47%

Johnny only reports whole pounds, not decimals. If I were to use whole numbers I would be at 3.51%.

However, I will bow to the great job Johnny is doing and pay my $10. There always next month.
