Copper flu on an Oregon potbelly is rotten 30 cm from the base.Can I cut the rotten segment and somehow it just drops down and I'm all go? Also a few birds were up it I spose ,I've thought of high pressure hose from top,burning them out? I'm a long way from town,so tradesmen will charge a big call out fee without discounting the scenic drive here

Thought it didn't look right,erased it and put flew but that looked a whole lot less grammer wise so changed it back. Didn't even register at the time adding a bloody e,but all is clear now

It must be stainless flue turned copper colour ? Best to buy one length online and change it.

Probably,first section length looks to be about 1m?and is welded to the next section?

No, they slide-in each others, you should be able to lift the next section up once you remove the pop rivets/screws, if any, joining the sections.

I was a little confused at first too, given it's getting to be flu season and flue season.

It's definitely welded at the first join,all the way round like a MIG/Tig thing does

If it has rotted out part way up, what sort of condition do you think the rest of it will be in? Most flue pipes are crimped at the end to reduce the size enough to fit into the adjoining piece.
