 Re: Chimney attachment
Jim,
Just a bit to add to what George passed on. You'll find that stucco really won't adhere to stainless very well at all. It might look okay at first, but it will crack eventually. Build a round or square "chase" around the pipe using lath wire. Leave at least an inch gap between it and the pipe for air movement. Use the base coat recommended by the stucco maker to parge the lath wire. Apply your top coat over this once it has set.
Jim
