Re: Wood Stove
I have the same model, it’s a Universal Air Blast 318 from around 1920 which is an upgrade from the standard 118, and 218. It should have chrome pieces around the legs and a top chrome dome piece. Mine is in good condition with all the parts and no burned out damage inside on the casting like this one. This one was used very hot and ruined the insides and cracked the top. I bought mine for 175.00 at a farm auction five years ago.
