    Shop stove.

    It's a piece of AK 48" pipeline, around 7ish feet long. Chimney pipe is 8" well casing.

    All the junk that doesn't make it into customer firewood ends up in there.

    Glove rack on the top which is about head level.

    Sorry about the crappy pics, gotta love the "awesome" iphone camera...

    I'm not sure! It can hold 3 or 4 wheelbarrow loads though!

    Year round. The guys in the shop do logging, lumber, small engine repairs, etc. I'm using a corner and helping out.... Tending the shop a bit, running skidder, etc.

    I emptied it two days ago, it wasn't "too" full of ashes. and I filled a wheelbarrow heaping over.
