I use a Hawken owb and i built a roof over it so i extended the chimney with some double walll from Menards. 2 3ft. sections. (they screw together) so now i have about 5 and a half ft. above the peak of the roof. Problem is the top 3ft. section seems to want to tip (don't want it to fall off). I don't want to have to use cables if i can help it. How can i secure the two sections of dbl wall together? Or maybe i should use cables if it's the wind that keeps blowing the top section over.
what's your thoughts?

I know the exact thing you need.. Tall stack owner here..The thing I bought is a band from a central boiler dealership.. Its a band that you put around the joint of the pipe then is tightened by bolts.. ( cant think what they call it)...I have 2 of them plus I have wire..Course im 19 ft up..But in your situation it would work slick with no wire needed

Thats what I did Iam up 16' I used the bands from CB

check with your pipe company they should make a roof support kit, (most people here use selkirk double wall insulated) the kits includes a band that goes around pipe 2 extendable rods that clamp at the length you want and comes with the brackets you screw in your roof...lag bolts and all screws needed.local selkirk bracket kit sell $55 here in ny... I just bought one....lol
