Seldom seen view. The removed chimney and petticoat of 15F 3117 allows one to have a closer look and to carry out welding repairs. Behind the baffle plate doors are the elements in the tubes.

A freshly ultrasonic particle tested chimney and petticoat for 15F 3117. The old chimney had a lot of wear and many pin holes in.

Or a halo...

In one sense it even looks a bit like a watery reflection...

Interesting perspective, Tom.
