While your resealing the top make sure the seams inside the firebox are good. We have two vermomt castings stoves. I have had the top off one of them to replace the converter. The rope seal and sealer is not to bad of a job to take on. Our dealer had reseal kits at the ready. What got my attention was the sealer they use on the joints inside the firebox on mine is breaking up. Not a good thing..... Prolly looking at replacing it I dont know what kind of lifespan these things have but this one lasted 17 years with one converter replacement
