Hi folks,
    The first notes I saw from John didn't specify the HT-45, did you find
a short 3-500?
    IIRC, the Coleman Lantern chimney will fit the 3-500, although it
doesn't have the top flared inward for air deflection to the plate
terminal cap like a real chimney.  But, they're both too tall for the
HT-45.  My shorter chimney for the 3-400 was cracked (2 pcs I think), so I
got the Coleman to try.  Nope.  The short chimney had been put together
with clear tape.  Since it really runs cool with the air going thru it,
and the clear tape & clear glass don't absorb any radiated heat, it's been
doing just FB for over a yr with regular use.
    If I could come up with a proper & reasonable 3-400 chimney I'd use
it.

But, at the same time I have never been sure if the bigger tube and
chimney would fit in place of the original set of parts.
