John D. questioned:


I am installing a vintage 1950s stand-alone Majestic wood burning fireplace. I want to be sure that I have a safe distance between the heat shield and the fireplace. The fire place is going into a corner with concrete dry wall. Any suggestions?

Thank you.

How to make a fireplace surround using ceramic tile?

Skinny questioned:


I am going to be making a fireplace surround and hearth using ceramic tile. Its a zero clearance wood burning fireplace. The walls where the surround will go is sheetrock and the hearth is wood-framed and raised off the floor 12″. I have a pretty excellent thought how to start, but I am curious if anyone has any tips that I should know about. Maybe you have done this yourself? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!
