jockc, I just used some screws and washers to attach the legs and that way I can take them on and off. the stuff in the 2nd pic is for the stove pipe. The cable rings go on the outside to keep it round and there are 2 cable clamps w/ the ends brazed together on each one to fit into each end of the pipe to keep it's shape. I only use one in the bottom of the pipe to allow the dampner to work easier but it is not really needed. That is acually a little bag to keep the rings in to keep from losing them. --Allen--
