My immediate thought is - OK, I'll get out my drill and break away the smoke shelf so that I can fit an adaptor between the flue and the chimney. Now I'm beginning to wonder - is this common practise or should I just be looking for a stove where the flue is better aligned (like a top mounted one)?

Any advice much appreciated!
